How much is the laptop worth on eBay in its condition? Here are my specs if we were to trade you send first.

3.0GHZ Intel PT4 HT Prescott

1 GIG of DDR PC-3200

6800GS 256MB Video card, you can get an RMA from EVGA to renew it.

160GIG HDD 7200 RPM western digital
ThermalTake Typhoon 120MM fan HeatSink

520 Watt PSU w/Fan Controller
Neon kit, alot of fans, and to be honest not the best wiring in the world.

i paid 1500 for it on ebay but it has problems which is why i value it at about 800. ill be honest with whats wrong too. the optical drive doesnt burn anything and sometimes it has issues popping out on its own. something to do with it not catching when it goes to kick the drive out. u can open it by putting your fingernail under the edge of the bezel and applying outward pressure before pushing the button. pops out fine then. the lcd is awesome, but sometimes at system boot, it doesnt come on and u need to reboot it till it comes on. not a big problem since i left it on all the time. the video card is funky too since its hit or miss on game compadiblity. runs HL2 pretty good but wont run COD at all without artifacting. its more of a workhorse then a gaming comp but it works good other then its problems. still needs a power supply though, and ive seen those on ebay for 65$

CrackatiCz · 09-10-2006, 06:17 AM

So want to trade or something? Though you will include the extra video card right? But damn I wonder how much I can get off of it if I sell it.

CrackatiCz · 09-10-2006, 06:24 AM

ttyl, Real late.

juliebriggs · 09-10-2006, 01:51 PM

the extra card is worth about $300 by itself since they are pretty rare, but ill include it anyway

CrackatiCz · 09-10-2006, 03:06 PM

Well would you want to trade? But I would like to see some pics.

juliebriggs · 09-10-2006, 03:40 PM

Cool! Thanks.

How does it play Quake 4, and battlefield 2? and the Source games?

juliebriggs · 09-10-2006, 07:42 PM

hl2 runs decent in medium-low settings, i know it wont run quake 4 without artifacting but i dont have the game to test. i installed BF2 on it but i didnt get to play it. the game froze when it was loading and i never tryed it again

CrackatiCz · 09-10-2006, 07:47 PM
