I'd be interested but AMD is total ass. I'll give you a cookie for it instead?

Okay, unless you have something constructive to add DON'T POST. By the way: AMD has really good value for their hardware and the 790gx IGP is the best out there currently.

Doesn't even have a graphics card, wtf kind of computer is this for $679?

I could build a way better Intel Machine for $650 and it even had a 9800 GT. Why even include an OS? I say you should remove Vista and include a graphics card instead.

It has a graphics card! The ATI HD 3300. Read the auction, please.

Onboard graphics are lame. It's probably about as useful as a GMA3100 from Intel - Not very... :lol:

Haha, I love that joke you made in post 3 in which you used AMD and value in the same sentence.

In seriousness though, I'll contact an AMD-friend I know who might be interested.

Yes...so convincing that this thing is great. I love my games when they run at 4 FPS. My $80 8600 GT would destroy that terrible graphics chip.

Settle down harshboy, let him try and sell it. You're not planning on buying it, so why are you getting all nit-picky about what's included?

Because who ever buys it is getting ripped off when my $650 PC I built on newegg can crush this PC in performance.

I still stick with my advice: Dump Vista and throw in a 9800 GT and maybe even XP while bumping the price to $700.

Thanks Valium! And this computer wasn't built for high performance gaming. And I would throw in an ATI 4850 (or 4870) instead of an NVidia card if I had made this for gaming.

Bay_wolf.

EDIT: Also Thanks Bibin for showing it to your AMD friend.

Well, people buy these pre-made computers because they can't make their own. Don't know how, don't want to learn, whatever the reason is. And they pay for that laziness by getting less bang for their buck. You're preaching to the people who know how to build these, and they already know not to buy a pre-made, so what's the point? Just let it go.

Yeah too bad you can't OC Intel Processors as well as you can AMD.

Intel=More Expensive, very limited in the OCing department
AMD=Cheaper, and broad OCing options, only limited by how cool you can keep it and how stable it runs.

Anyone who thinks AMDs are trash, should have no right to even touch a computer.

Yeah sure people have their own opinions, but blindly bashing AMD without reason isn't acceptable.

Though it is a nice computer, I personally would build my own. (which I currently am doing)

Thanks for the kind words Jongamer! Question for Jongamer: do you think the price is reasonable.
