    i guess you would be talking 1.6k-2000 in the shops

    I would pay around 1,000-1,400 euro i guess for a set up like that

    why you selling your Pooter ?

    Depends on what the games were. Is it new?

    You would pick it up new online for about e1600-1800. Shops would prolly charge about e2200. Not including the games in that estimate.

    2nd hand I wouldn't pay any more than e1300.

    Yeah same here, tis a nice package.
    You'd probably get more trying to sell the games and extras seperately... I think there's a whole underlying feeling of having to pay for extra stuff that appears to be thrown in, if ye get me.

    You thinking of giving up the nerd lifestyle chief? :)
    Or are you trading down to a laptop? :ninja:
    Many a time I've thought of selling my rig and having a nice holiday to the bahamas :D

    who said im selling? :p , this is merely a pimpage thread :p as ive been working for the past couple of months gettiing it all together the way i want it (maxing out my credit card and taking out a unneeded loan from the bank :p)
    Depends on what the games were. Is it new?

    everything pretty much in the machine is basically next to brand new if not brand new...

    Games, mostly more recent ones (FPS / couple of rpg (NWN etc) and action games etc, with a few strategy games aswell and some more), only ones not that new are kingpin/half life and a couple of others..

    very VERY tempting i must say!

    now i just need to get that dvd writer on komplett and my rig will be complete (for the time being atleast.. :D)

    apologies for the pimping thread, just finally glad ive got it all together and couldnt quite work out just how much i spent overall on it so wondered how much it would actually be worth in one piece..

    feel free to pimp your own now though :)
