    If you cannot make money selling this one, there is something wrong with you.
    $149.99 with free freight + add Windows, Ram and a hard drive and an easy $500 retail gets you $200 + whatever you can get moving their files, and the components are decent!

    Thanks Rich,

    ... and I just bought a Dell for a customer. Wish I had known.

    Since the link for that upgrade kit is now gone. I will add this one here. It's a barebones AMD kit from the same original site linked with a very nice Gigabyte AMD 760s mATX board and everything you need to get started minus the OS - memory - Optical.

    *You can add the HDD's from the links Rich-M gave, or better, since prices have now dropped on traditional SATA HDD's head on over to here to newegg and grab the 1TB Blue here
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...2236339&cm_re=1tb_blue-_-22-236-339-_-Product


    *Add this memory here (DDR3 prices have dropped substantially as well)
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...0231428&cm_re=8GB_ddr3-_-20-231-428-_-Product

    *Optical here

    -- Just add the OS and you are good to go!

    Great addition Chrono but suggest we watch out for Psu in that case, I would not use it.
    The case itself isn't bad as I have used a few of those. 3bTech is a great resource and they always have free freight.

    The power supply should be enough to get it up and running especially if just the onboard AMD HD 4200 was being used, and I would suggest ordering a better power supply eventually. One would want to check the power deliver in the bios of the build under the health section and verify that +12v rails and all other rails are within specification etc. And still, even if they were I would go ahead and make plans to order a new quality unit.

    I did use 3bTech for one order before I closed shop (so to speak) and it was a nice experience. The items came on time and nothing was damaged.
