    [WTB][US] decent rig under $500

    New PC won't boot

    Just wanted to make it clear, as looked at my statement. :) when i say speaker, i mean speaker on the mobo and not regular speakers, i didn't really make it clear. so if your mobo does not have speakers, would need a small one to plug into the motherboard to get beep codes. -D
