Please only post the same question once

As for the value of the rig. To me it is worth about $350 (If I wanted to buy something like that on eBay or where ever)

hehe i think cherry erally wants to drill his point home! I'd say more around 350 for that too, the lite-ons and maxtors...good quality peripherals

OMFG, NO, I AM RETARDED, WHAT IS A RIG? SERVAR?
duh.......i like cow .............duuuhhhh

*serious now

yes i have heard and own a server 'rig' (the word u americans use)

although i will not lie when i say i do not know this "tivo"

but i still do think you should have read my comment more adequately and seen that i said to suffice my technological needs

and MY technological needs do NOT require ANOTHER server 'rig'

EDIT: ok i now know what a tivo is.... LMFAO i still think the idea is ridiculous, my myself i do not watch tv (the idiot box)
and i do not pay for cable, neither do i want one even if it was free
(BTW THIS EDIT IS A RHETORICAL COMMENT) ;)

The guy asked for your opinion on what you think his system is worth if he sells it. I don't think he gives a damn about your "technological needs". As for "rig" I'm Canadian, and I use it too. So do people all around the world. :rolleyes:

I'm sorry for sounding harsh, but he asked a question and you completely avoided it and basically called his system crap. Where in Canada are you living?

Cool, it hauls man. :D :cool:

I'm not a big 3DMark guy, so I didn't really shoot for the highest scores possible, but her are my results:

And this is 2k3, but only at 204FSB.. If you'd like I could give it a go at 240. :)

Hi

Your rig looks OK to me.

Why sell the whole lot and start again?

Why not O/C the processor a bit, and bang a 9800PRo or FX5900 graphics card in it.

It will still rock with your current processor.

If your a gamer, the graphics card is the most important bit.

Considering your graphics card I think you would be astounded by the difference even a 4200TI for less than $100 would make... and of course you could buy an even better card.

Sure, no problem. I'll run it tomorrow though, since I have to go to work in 6 hours. :cry:
