I have a friend at work is trying to sell junk, so that he can move, and has offered me a computer.
He wants $200 due to the fact that he put in a 9800GTX that he spent $120 on. It also has
- ~700GB hard drive
- ~350GB hard drive.
- Between 2-4GB of ram (May or may not be useful in my current machine)
- Unknown but possibly dual core processor (may or may not be more powerful than my current machine but it most likely is)
- He replaced the power supply with something around 600-650 Watts.
- It's also an emachines...
I'm mostly interested in the graphics card and possibly one or both of the hard drives.
My original idea was to buy it, salvage the Video Card, A Hard drive (Or two) and then try to give the rest away to someone who needs a computer but he doesn't have the side panel for it so I can't really give it to anyone. I'm not so sure that the rest of the hardware would be of any use to me so at this point it looks like I would be paying for a 9800GTX, 2 hard drives, a Spare power supply and some junk that will sit in my closet.
Any input?
