Selling my computer

[GruesomeDuece]

Gateway FX (forgot the model number)

It has 4 gb of RAM, Vista Home Premium, Quad Core processor, GeForce 8700 ( I think, I know it's a good one.)

I'll list more specifics when I get home from work. It's a great computer, played the hell out of Crysis. But that's the only game I've played on it. I literally have maybe been on that computer a total of 25 hours since I've had it. Just didn't get back into PC gaming like I wanted to.

I'm asking $850. Takers?

Why you selling?

[grlxx]

sounds sweet..have any pics of it? :hmmm:

needs to buy booze

Makes sense :hmmm:

I never play it...I have a 360 and PS3 that take up my time...plus, I'm trying to pay off the Best Buy card and put a down payment on a 1080p 120hz tv. I don't have a monitor for it, except my 42 inch HD Monitor/TV, but it's getting fixed in about 2 weeks. I'd throw that in as well for $1200 total, or just the computer for $850.

Gateway FX 7026 - Core 2 Quad Q9300 / 2.5 GHz - RAM 4 GB - HDD 2 x 320 GB - DVDRW / DVD-RAM - GF 8800 GT - Mdm - Vista Home Premium 64-bit

Only drawback to it is that the current motherboard isn't SLI (capable of running dual vid cards).

There is seriously nothing at all wrong with the PC. Like I said, I've only spent a few hours on it. I have a laptop that I do all my surfing on. Hell, I'll even throw in Crysis with it, too. It's just got the stock keyboard and mouse that came with it.

Finally sold my treadmill :D

[GruesomeDuece]

Apparently treadmills are easier to sell then computers. I know the population at my gym has almost tripled in the past months. People trying to beat the rising cost of health care and just simply trying to get in shape for summer beach bodies I guess. It's good to see it, though, especially in one of the most obese states in the country.

I'm trying to get down to my pre-college weight.:bigthumbup:

If anyone is interested in the computer, just PM me.

Alot of mofos out there selling treadmills. I pretty much gave mine away. Cost me over $650. Sold it for $150.

could be because the computer is over priced. About 4 months ago I purchased a Gateway gt5676 with an AMD Phenom 9600 64 bit 2.3 Ghzs with 4 Gb Ram, 2 x 320 SATA Hard drives, AMD 780G w/ HDMI (Which is Crossfire/SLI (dual video card)) for $500 Factory Refurb.

so given that yours is used and it is an intel but not crossfire compatible I'd say its worth about $425-550 shipped (the factory refurb was about $650 shipped). Since there is already a new batch of processors out and Crossfire (which by the way is a bitch to get functioning properly and does not always perform as is mentioned on ATI's forums, so until ATI gets someone to rewrite their drivers it may be a few more months). Plus the FX7026 does not have HDMI out so it is not capable of playing newer games in full 1080p HD. It also has a fairly small power supply, as does the model I have. we are already using ancient technology which depreciates in value faster.

although to anyone who is interested it is a really solid peice of machinery capable of handling anything that you could possibly throw at it and it is still fast enough that it would be capable of being used for atleast another 4.5+ years before needing to be replaced.

Here is a great review of the computer.

i'm a nerd.

I did some pricing research and the condition it's in it's a solid $550 at least. So I guess I'll ask that, which is considerably less than I need, but I don't want to screw anyone over.

That Gateway FX7026 Refurbished Desktop PC is friggin' sweet. Wish I would have thought to look in that direction before I got my new system. When I'm ready to upgrade I'll be callin' on ya :D
