So I'm having a bit of a dilemma. I'm currently saving up and piecemealing together my Z77/3570k build (CPU/HSF/MB/HDD/ODD left).
Today I saw a post on CL for a 775 build.
I don't really need another 775 rig, and I just got rid of one; however, does this deal look as amazing as I think it does?
Liquid cooled computer
The monitors are only 1680x1050, but current models are still ~$140ea.
And I can't tell what that IDE ribbon is going to, don't need another IDE HDD.
I pretty much would strip the cooler and HDD and replace them with spares I have laying around (PSU too probably) then flip it for roughly the same amount, with 1 monitor...
Sound legit?
Also, sent him an e-mail asking for specifics on the OS/CPU/HSF and got this response:
To be honest with you I'm unsure what brand water cooler it is it was a complete kit, the CPU I can't remember believe its intel duo core if I remember right and it had windows xp installed on it but was havin issues getti it to boot up... I had it built through ibuypower.com back when I was in the service and never really knew what I was gettin into and now I def don't have the time to play around with it and just wana get rid of it because it takes up space.
