I just upgraded to the system in my sig, and I just found out that my onboard SB Live! 24bit 8ch audio won't work without -5V on pin20, which my PSU doesn't support. Now I need to buy a new soundcard, and I'm willing to give up my old system for one.

I took out the hard drive, DVD burner, CDROM, and floppy drive and put it into my new system. What is left:
- a decent generic atx case w/ 300W PSU (PSU fans don't work) $10
- 1.1GHz AMD Athlon Thunderbird w/ Thermaltake Volcano 6 Cu HSF $50
- 256MB PC133 RAM $25
- Elsa Gladiac 920 64MB GeForce 3 w/ S-Video $35
- Gigabyte AMD 760 chipset motherboard $20
- Soundblaster 16-bit sound card $10
- D-Link NIC card $5

$120 for everything, you pay for your own shipping.

The only problem with this whole system is that my 300W power supply does not have a working fan in it. Somehow the fan inside the power supply broke, but the system ran fine with the case open and a little portable house fan blowing onto the PSU tehee :D. But I mean it's a pretty solid computer for that price. It's a steal for a low-end PC that will play some games, act as a file server once you throw in a few hard drives, for the kids, or whatever.

I'm planning on buying something from the Audigy 2 series, so I'm looking to get that much out of everything. If someone has an Audigy or something equally good that they're looking to get rid of, everything I listed is yours.


Post a reply or PM me, but I'd prefer an e-Mail to jonfillmore@sbcglobal.net
