build one yourself. In fact, within the next week, I plan on having an article out on contraildesigns.com with in about your budget range. If you wanna wait that long, cool. If someone else helps you out first, that's cool too.

For $700 you will get the 9800GT/4850, Intel quad, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD Vista whatever, a 650 PSU and a case. in fact you can get that very case. It's the same one I have!!! Plus, it looks halfway like a scam. If you will notice, in the text he says you are bidding on a trail version of vista???? Don't buy that one. One this guys kept saying how you will get the box of vista. Guess what? The "vista" sold for real cheap!

Not to bum your trip, but my sole pc buying experience on ebay was not pleasant. Got it cheap, psu died in a month, hdd died a couple months later. I was going to send it back to the guy for repairs, but then found out he had 8 civil suits for warranty fraud in Louisiana. This is nothing against ebay or the many reputable vendors there. It's just risky.
