For $58 you can get a full blown Phenom II X4. Good luck!

I got super excited until I saw the price cap.

I have a Phenom II 965BE i'm trying to get rid of but the lowest I think I can do with shipping is $75. :/

If I had more I would gladly pay $75 shipped but I'm down to $58.70 left in the budget to build my grandma of all people a midrange gaming rig and the cpu is the last piece of the puzzle

Is she some type of online gambling savant or something? I bet she has a nice eyefinity 6 setup to play all 24(4 to a screen) games of solitaire simultaneously.

If she does more than that it'd be quite the surprise. Even my somewhat tech savvy grandmother only plays the Wii at most. Getting her to play computer games would be quite the jump.

Since the wife and I started playing SWTOR she's been wanting to play and after convincing her that her 7 year old emachines was junk she asked me to build her a system to play. What can I say the gaming gene runs strong in my family

Nope, I'm from Ohio not Arkansas. Met the wife in Anarchy Online, our 4 oldest kids (8-10-11-13) are console and pc gamers two youngest (2-3) are well on their way. Grandma is PC and PS3 gamer brother is the same etc etc etc. everyone listed but the two youngest know how to play or have their own MTG decks, even gramma has a nice little collection going. Some of us are just blessed with families that appreciate gaming in all forms. The monthly D&D family session is always a blast

On a side note I want to know exactly how saying gaming runs in my family immediately makes the connection of inter-family marriage

You referenced your wife and then said the gaming gene runs strong in my family. We know what you meant and pretty sure most of us got the Star Wars reference (force=gene) but the way you worded it inspired a WTF :wtf: moment and a little fun.

Don't take it personal... we all get a little jabbing if we type typing something off kilter

Oh no no, I didn't take it personal at all, and I guess after reading it again I can see what you mean. The side note wasn't an attempt to start a bickering match or anything of the nature. I guess I should have worded it different or put in a modifier that by gene I meant grandma mom siblings children etc etc.

Hell accusing me of marrying a family member isn't even in the top ten worst things said to me today. A little old lady that looked like she outlived a life sentence came up with some rather inventive slurs after I told her that the coupon printing program she couldn't get to work was actually an installer for Rootkit.Zeroaccess and what I was going to charge for repair

Think it had something to do with you referencing your grandmom in one post then you wife in another.

I do most of my repairs for family/friends and I can't remember how many times I've told them not to randomly install crap on their PC's from the internet :banghead:

Sounds like like you get much more of that than I do
