Okay, pretty much all of my friends are looking to upgrade in some way shape or form withen the next month or two. The way I usually get such good parts is not so much that I'm rich, but that I'm able to sell my parts to friends that wish to upgrade and I put that money with a little bit of savings towards new parts. Well that's what's happening now, and on a very large scale. I'm selling my CPU, motherboard, RAM, video card, my old Barracuda, and my 15gb iPod that I no longer use. What do I have planned?
-AMD Opteron 144 or 146. (Should be a blast to overclock.)
-DFI RDX200. (Runs 4 dimms at 1T!! Slow USB 2 speeds but I don't use USB 2 much. No SATA-II either but I'm happy with my Raptors)
-2gb (2x 1gb) Corsair XMS 2-3-2-5 PC3500 DDR1. (No more value RAM for me!)
-ATI x1800 XT 512mb. (Still $600 at Newegg but should be $550 or so by the time I get it.)
-Sunbeam Lian Li Edition. (Because the first channel on my Enermax stopped working, and my fans pull too many watts to double them up on one channel. This one has 20w per channel, plenty to double up.)
Obviously the top is my Christmas list, how I'm going to put all this new hardware to use. That $368 savings is as of 11/7/05. I earn about $24 a week or so. Plus it looks like I'm going to be helping family out with leaves, which is another money maker. Things are looking pretty good. I'm as giddy as a school girl.
