Ok, my sister really wants her own computer and I am trying to get her one for Christmas. It needs to have a graphics card capable of playing AOE3, an X1800XT or higher should be fine. I would prefer it to have PCI-E, at least a 939 system. Lemme know what you have got.

Edit:
Doesn't need a monitor as I can get one locally.

I have a Socket 939 asus board a8n-vm csm rev 1.01.

User manual for a8n-vm csm

I also have a couple 3000 series CPUs, extra chassis of all types/colors, and spare keyboads. Nothing put together but I thought I'd give it a shot.

Ive got RAM (couple 2x512's), CPU (AMD Athlon64 3200+ does 2.6 easy), video (x1950 Pro PCIe) in my FS thread. Just need a mobo and your pretty much set.

i'm too far away to sell complete systems, but if you're going 939 i still have a CPU and some DDR1 ram left here.

2x512 OCZ DDR500... if you intend to OC, its some of the best you can still find these days.
