Hey everyone,

Regretfully I have to sell my computer to fund an overseas trip. This machine is extremely quick and good for just about anything you would like to do with it. Looking at pick up only at this stage (Hawthorn) but may entertain the notion of postage in the future.

Ok specs are:

Thermaltake Lanbox

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40 GHz

4.00GB of Ram

ASUS LightScribe SATA DVD

ANTEC Neo HE 430W PSU (very quiet)

Gigabyte GA-G31MXS2 M/B

Sapphire 2600XT with HDMI and dual DVI (dual monitor capabilities and HD Audio Controller onboard for full Hi Def support)

Seagate Barracuda 80GB SATA boot drive plus 160GB Western Digital portable HD in USB enclosure.

D-Link AirPlus Wireless Adapter

There is probably more I have forgotten which I will add at a later date. Currently running Windows XP but can install vista ultimate if purchaser wishes.

Looking for $1000 or best offer (need money quickly). Feel free to PM me

Here are a couple of crappy phone pictures:

The graphics card isn't too good (it's a HTPC graphics card mostly) but power wise it will speed through anything except for games that are under a year and a half old with maxed out graphics.

Good luck with the sale  thumbs-up, my computers similar, except it's not a micro, it's just a mid tower and it has an 8600GT.

Yep that is mainly what I use it for, it is very quiet thus good for HTPC. Still more than capable with most games (won't run Crysis on high though!) and with a quick hot swap to a 8800GT or similar will be future proof for quite some time.

Like I said I'm open to offers as I need to put a deposit down for a trip soon and the more I get the better.

Yeah I saw, the man needs his money quickly though (I don't have it yet).

Also not quite what I want, but a good deal anyway.
I once had this battery with an alkaline problem. I took it to AA meetings.

To all the virgins out there: THANKS FOR NOTHING!

Sleeping bags. They're intense!

Yep put an 8800GT in it, for about $220 and it's a pretty beefy computer.
