Your best consolation is the hope that the things you failed to get weren't really worth having.

Old computer stuff posted at 7:38 AM

After some intense frustration trying to find a good video card upgrade, I’ve decided to part out my Windows/Myth machine, and make a more substantial upgrade. I know some of you out there have some older machines that could maybe use some of this stuff. Let me know if you’re interested in purchasing any of the following parts and make me an offer. Some of it’s up on eBay right now, but I’d rather sell to friends first so I’ll pull it down if you want it.

These parts I’m definitely getting rid of:

  • AMD Athlon XP 2500+ 333MHz FSB
  • AMD Athlon XP-M 3200+ 400MHz FSB (same as XP 3200+, fastest Socket A processor you can get)
  • 2GB OCZ Platinum low-latency DDR400 RAM (2×1GB kit, this is almost brand-new)
  • 1GB (2×512) Kingston DDR333 RAM
  • ASUS GeForceFX 5200 AGP
  • ATi Radeon All-In-Wonder 9700 AGP (no fan, 2D works ok without it)
  • ASUS A7N8X nForce2 motherboard
  • Chieftec 350W ATX power supply

In addition, I -may- be getting rid of some of this stuff. I know I’m going to have to lose at least some of it, since the new motherboard I’m getting only has 2 PCI slots, and one of those slots will be taken up by a wireless adapter. If you have an interest in it, let me know, it’ll probably help me make my decision.

  • Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum with Audigy Drive
  • Hauppauge PVR-150 analog TV tuner
  • Western Digital 120GB EIDE hard drive

Let me know if you’re interested.

    What do you want for the PC3200 RAM? I’m not sure I’m interested in 2GB but if the price is right I might be able to have my arm twisted…

    Sorry, it’s already been offered up to the eBay gods :) I sold it for almost as much as I paid for it on Newegg a few weeks ago.
