Same here, I went through the whole config and was like - Meh!

Then saw 500GB. Eyes went pop. Need a HTPC kinda thing. Just a PC to abuse.

grab this deal but make sure you check the HDD for bad sectors, do a 30min -1 hour prime 95 stability test for cpu, run a game to test the gpu, and ask for any kind of remaining warranty ( if any ) on HDD/Gfx card/Mobo/CPU?PSU.

Also EVGA GTX 460 SuperClock Edition. That baby is enough for HD gaming also.

Sarath, I am planning to get a good system for my brother before leaving for US. Will you sell it to me? After all my small bro is like your brother too. :-D

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I tried telling him to get the tests done but he is not ready. He is asking to come see it at his house. He is only selling it locally and wants to sell it within his week. I can only go to HYD after 2 weeks so I am leaving the deal. I was looking forward to it but guess it's not my day. This guy is not my friend, his thread is on IVG.

@topgear: thanks for the info. Will surely be useful in times to come. :)
@Cilus: Not buying :( Are you leaving for US foreva?
