Crunchers Helping Crunchers

Radical_Edward · Sep 23, 2010

Okay guys, I've changed my mind AGAIN.

I'm going to use this ASRock mobo for my cruncher #2/GF's rig, so I need all the cheap/free parts I can get to make it happen, as I want to get it done by the 15th, but I simply don't have much money to spare since it's all going to the ring at the moment. (The 15th is our three year anniversary, and I was planning on popping the question.)

I already have a keyboard, mouse, a 17" monitor, the mobo, and a Zalman CPU cooler. As long as my birthday present from my brother get's here before then, I'll have my current processor to use for it. I know what case I'm going to get for it, since that'll only be $50 shipped and it's what she wants, I can spare it. (Honestly thou, if anyone has a spare case with a window sitting around, that would be fine. I'd at least pay shipping.)

What I need right now is...

DDR2 ram (I'd prefer a 2 X 1 GB kit, but really anything helps.)
Sata HDD, 80GB or larger. I have a 40GB IDE sitting around I could use...
Sata optical bay, I have a very crappy and dying IDE white one around, but I'd rather not use it.
A decent PCI-E graphics card, the mobo does have onboard, but it's not so great.
Good quality PSU, anything works as long it doesn't die/can power the rig.

Bro I sent the Ram I had to fihdon last week, the PSU was sent to garyinhere for the contest, graphics card I will have to see if I have anything worthy, doubt it, I have my 2900xt but Im not too sure that works good. I'll keep you posted.

Anyone have a spare 1GB DDR2 SODIMM? Texbill was able to get me one, then the 1gb stick I had died. Looks like I can't RMA it either, so I really a new stick.

sodimm? server or laptop ram?

theonedub · Sep 23, 2010

theonedub · Sep 23, 2010

Dang, I appreciate you checking though :toast:

Solaris17 · Sep 23, 2010

i will give 1 whole kit to the person that can send the dub a 1gb stick. PM me

Radical_Edward · Sep 23, 2010

Seems Garyinhere has a Seagate 160GB HDD for the rig, so that's one less thing to worry about.

Edit- So I don't cluster up this thread with updates, here's a link to the build thread.

(FIH) The Don · Sep 30, 2010

im looking for a p55 cpu, any in the 1156 series

and 2x1 gb ddr3 1333 minimum

[Ion] · Sep 30, 2010

Sorry, don't have either of those up for grabs. I'd like to keep my i7 rig

p_o_s_pc · Oct 3, 2010

i need a AM2 CPU (dual,tri,quad anything 95w or less) Also a 512mb or greater stick of ddr2 any speed but 800 is preferred.
I just noticed that i have everything i need but a CPU to get another rig running.
I have a stick of ram but it is only 512mb so it wouldn't make for the best cruncher(but would be possible on a stripped down win XP install)

just a heads up to anyone that maybe willing to help i am flat broke.(nice way to make me feel like a bum)

updated. I might have you covered for the stick of ram, I'll let you know shortly.

p_o_s_pc · Oct 7, 2010

anything on the ram CP?
also still needing a CPU.

theonedub · Oct 7, 2010

I have a stick of 512MB Hynix DDR2 PC-5300 RAM available.

CP- I still have the same stuff available to give. I no longer need any of the 1156 mounting gear (got it with my Megashadow), but I am looking for a 775 MB that supports 65nm C2D CPUs for this E2140 I want to build out

Ive got an Athlon 5000+ wanting a new home. Its a good little oc'er for its age. Ive ran it 2.7GHz 24/7 with 0 problems, might be able to squeeze 2.9 or so out of it on a decent board. Its yours if you would like it. I wouldnt be able to ship it till late next week though. Im right in the middle of a move.

PM me if your interested. :toast:

EDIT: Almost forgot... It unlocks to full X4 on the right board.
