    I was checking out the combo packages on the following site, and they seem pretty cheap.

    I was wondering if anyone has used them, and what was your experience? Would you reccomend them?


    Here is an example of what i was thinking about buying.

    The price is quite good, but it looks like an effort to get rid of outdated stock (that 1.333 Athlon's probably a Thunderbird rather than an XP (1500+, I think, is the right number?)), and the FOP32-1, well, that's positively prehistoric by HSF standards)

    Also bear in mind that only the newest revision of that PC Chips mobo supports Athlon XPs, so you may be hampering your upgrade potential by choosing this package, if that sort of thing bothers you.
