sorry if this is in the wrong section::;;;;;..
Hi,
as you may have been reading, i have been having some problems with my shuttle. I have also been thinking about upgrading video cards.
the whole agp->pci-e trend is getting me thinking about upgrading to a pci-e capable computer, so that i can upgrade video cards now for less money, and also in the future.
Anyways, my computer now is certainly far from being obsolete, so i was wondering how much do you think i could sell it for on eBay? i looked already and saw comparable systems priced around $600, which is actually more than i payed for mine new =). so that would be cool if you think i would be able to get that much.
Shuttle ST61G4B
Pentium 4 3.0 GHz 800 FSB (Northwood)
Mushkin 1024 MB PC3200 Dual Channel
Western Digital 80 GB 7200 RPM
Lite-ON 52x32x52x16 CD-RW/DVD-ROM
Audigy SoundBlaster Live! 24-Bit 7.1
MSI GeForce FX 5200.
i figure, i could get one of these: shuttle SB85G3

one of these: p4 530 or 530J (J only has that one thing? which runs cooler?)

some of this: 1gb pc3200 corsair valueselect

one of these: cd-rw/dvd-rom
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=27-106-572&depa=1
and be at around the same price i payed originally, but with a slightly faster and much more upgradeable (and cooler looking!) system ($550ish shipped and taxed)
to this i would add a 30 dollar 80gb WD HDD from bestbuy and an x800xl probably
