Looking for older pc

Post by kurupt »

my sister's pc is pretty much shot to hell, and i'm the only one she knows who can build one for her. problem is, i dont really wanna spend the 300ish dollars it would cost to get her something decent, so i was hoping someone had something in the 100 to 150ish range.

looking at around 1ghz, 256mb ram or so, video isnt a big deal, onboard sound is fine, i already have a monitor and hard drive for her, and speakers.

anyone got anything or know of something that would suit my needs?

thanks!

edit: just realized i wasnt in the marketplace forum. doh! my bad

This is kinda a techy question tho...

If I were you, I'd get an old nforce1 board($50), a cheap athlon processor (xp1500- $50) and some pc2100 ram (256=$25)

The nforce 1 board are still a good board, and they have onboard video that is decent...
