CHEAP computer	Sat, 16 April 2005 07:17

hey, im making a computer for my brother (6 years old! ), and was wondering how you guys thought these prices looked. it's gotta be pretty cheap (read: under about $600), so its gonna be very basic, like no graphics or sound card (will be onboard). also, we dont need a keyboard, mouse, speakers or monitor, so that cuts it down a bit. so these are the specs im looking at: cpu: amd athlon xp or intel celeron/old p4 mb: socket a/478, onboard video/sound, front usb ram: 512mb, one stick hdd: 40gb, 7200rpm, at least 3yr warranty might be handy, maybe 80gb, not fussed about cache cd: probably just have my current 52x cdrom, otherwise, black cdrom case: BASIC, black, front usb, at least 300w psu fdd: pfft! anyway, these prices are from aus pc market (http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/, includes delivery except for large, bulky items) and scorpion technology (http://www.scorptec.com.au/, no delivery included): aus pc: case: basic black/silver midi-tower, 400w psu, front usb/audio $59.40 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=CA-CYB-BS2-9903-3-BLACK&inpu t[category_id]=268 cpu: athlon xp 2800+ 166mhz fsb (ddr333) $165.00 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=CP-AMAXP2800&input[category_ id]=401 celeron c 2.4ghz $132.00 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=CP-INC2G4F478&input[category _id]=271 celeron d 2.4ghz $143.00 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=CP-INCD24-320&input[category _id]=1226 hdd: maxtor 80gb, 2mb cache $104.50 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=HD-M6Y080L01&input[category_ id]=14 western digital 80gb, 8mb cache $115.50 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=HD-WDB800JB&input[category_i d]=14 mb: abit an-7 amd/a/nforce2 3xddr400 $141.90 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=AL-MBAB-AN7&input[category_i d]=129 abit nf7-s amd/a/nforce2 3xddr400 $127.60 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=AL-MBAB-NF7-S&input[category _id]=129 albatron px865pe-pro intel/478/865pe 4xddr400 $137.50 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=MB-ALPX865PEPRO&input[catego ry_id]=427 asus p4p800s-x intel/478/848 2xddr400 $132.00 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=MB-ASP4P800SX&input[category _id]=427 ram: corsair 512mb pc3200 ddr400 $96.80 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=AL-VS512MB400&input[category _id]=1123 geil 512mb pc3200 ddr400 $115.50 http://www.auspcmarket.com.au/index.php?redir=http ://www.auspcmarket.com.au/show_product_info.php?in put[product_code]=RA-GE5123200B&input[category _id]=1123 scorptec: case: honli black/silver 500w $60.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001466 8 powertek black 350w $45.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001335 2 powertek black/white 400w $55.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001292 0 cpu: athlon xp 2800+ $160.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000616 2 celeron 2.4ghz $105.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001180 8 celeron 2.66ghz $122.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001180 9 celeron 2.8ghz $135.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001181 0 hdd: seagate 40gb 2mb $78.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000615 7 seagate 80gb 2mb $85.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000615 9 western digital 40gb 8mb $79.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000424 4 western digital 80gb 8mb $85.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000284 6 mb: atx: abit nf7 amd/a/nforce2 3xddr400 $100.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000574 7 abit vt7 intel/478/via pt880 4xddr400 $99.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001381 7 asus p4p800mx intel/478/865gv 4xddr400 $99.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001256 6 gigabyte ga-7vt600-1394 amd/a/via kt600 3xddr400 $99.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000954 3 gigabyte ga-7vt600p-rz amd/a/via kt600 3xddr400 $90.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001145 8 matx: gigabyte 7vm400am-rz amd/a/via km400a 2xddr400 $85.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001335 8 gigabyte 8s661fxmp-rz intel/478/sis 661fx 2xddr400 $75.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001371 5 gigabyte ga-8i845gvm-rz intel/478/800/845gv 2xddr333 $85.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001116 2 can also get a bundle for $180.00 with: gigabyte 8s661fxmp-rz intel/478/sis 661fx 2xddr400 celeron 2.4ghz http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001412 9 ram: corsair 512mb pc3200 ddr400 $89.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0001270 5 kingmax 512mb pc3200 ddr400 $85.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000583 0 kingston 512mb pc3200 ddr400 $89.00 http://www.scorptec.com.au/index.php?prdid=0000574 9 by my calculations, that adds up to $520.30 to $597.30 from aus pc, and $388.00 to $494.00 from scorptec so, what do you guys reckon?
