nomofwd Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) I actually have a core2 duo e6300 1.86ghz lga775 processor, 2gb of ddr2 800mhz and 1gb 533mhz that I just pulled from my pc that I regularly gamed on since 07 to begin a new build because new parts are cheaper than the older stuff! Pm me your budget and I'll work something out with you. My motherboard took a nose dive with respect to the peripheral ports but the processor and ram all seem intact although I cant get a video signal out, it still posts. The processor clock speed sounds low but has been a surprising powerhouse in my pc for years and never slowed a single bit. running intense video games, web browser flash plugins and music at the same time. My bad. I meant to put E5300 and edited to suit. Edited August 18, 2012 by nomofwd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rabbit1 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 ddr2 and 775 chips are still in high use, not a long shot at all and not all that expensive. a core 2 quad and 4gb of ram should be somewhere under $200 new so used shouldn't be that bad.

PM me your address. Mine are the one GB modulesUnfortunately those will not work as they are DDR400 and not the DDR2 pin configuration. They simply won't fit in the slot. 192pin vs 240.

The Rabbit1 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 *facepalm what i am saying is the range of parts that fit on that board are so wide that parts are a dime a dozen. To buy my PC already made from a store would run you a few thousand. look on craigslist and you should be able to find whatever you need for $20 here and there. I bought my board, ram, processor and video card for $150 and it's a 2.6 quad core with 4gb of ram with a video card that has 1gb of ram on it. you don't need all that so I am sure you can get what you are looking for for much less.
