I am selling a custom built, high-end gaming PC. Every component of this computer is of a very high quality from highly respected manufacturers. The build quality is very solid. I am an IT student and I put a lot of time into choosing every individual component. I always had my eye on maximum performance while maintaining perfect reliability and thermal conditions. I will also include the original box, accessories, and instructions for every component used in this build. This setup will also come with a performance oriented keyboard and mouse.

This computer will also come with Windows Vista Premium 32-bit and Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007 installed.

I put about $1700 into building this and I absolutely love it. It is by far the fastest computer I have ever owned. It benchmarks very high (3Dmark06 score of 13,079) and runs all of my games at 1920x1200 resolution. The only reason I am selling is because I need a laptop.

I am willing to overclock the CPU, video card and RAM to whatever reasonable specs you wish. I set up the cooling system on the this machine to handle the thermal stress caused by overclocking.

I'm assuming that Vista and Office come with discs?

Woah! Thats pretty crazy. Are you from Missouri?

[Eidorian]

If you're down to parting it out I might be interested in some bits.

[TheScavenger]

I'm not really interested in parting it out. I really want to sell it as a complete unit.

This is a very tentative offer, but would you consider trading it for a 1.67GHz 15" Powerbook G4 with 1.5GB RAM?

I am looking for something with a little more power.

Thanks anyway,
