| Description | Bought back in May 2008 for 900 shipped straight from dell. Specs were Windows XP, Q6600, 2GB DDR2 800MHZ, Seagate 500GB HDD, Geforce 8300GS 256MB, 350 watt lite-on PSU. This also came with a keyboard, mouse and 22" 1680x1050 monitor. (This was a hell of a deal back then, just to build the tower itself was around 900..and I got a 22" monitor ontop of it so I couldn't pass up the deal, the retail price from dell was around 1300, but I a friend of mine worked in their fraud department and got me 35% off or something) Soon after, I purchased the ATI 4850 512MB for around 140 USD. Summer 2010 I changed to windows 7 64bit and upgraded the ram with 4GB of OCZ Platinum DDR2 800mhz RAM $100 October 2011 I upgraded the power supply to a TX650v2 for $75 |
