ceslayer23: IN YOUR MIRROR; +142|6357|CLOSER THAN I APPEAR

Credits to leetkyle for giving me the idea to post this. So, I have $325 dollars to spend on whatever I want. I am asking you for suggestions, because I have no clue what to get. I am looking for something to do with my computer (doesn't have to be hardware like RAM, Video card or anything like that...but it can be.) I've posted my computer specs here, but that does not mean that I have to buy something to upgrade my comp. Anything electronic is good for me.

Case: APEVIA X-Navigator Full Tower w/ 600W Power supply
Video Card: Evga 7800 GTX (256MB RAM)
Processor: AMD FX-57 (2.8GHz)
MoBo: Asus A8N-SLI Premium
RAM: Corsair XMS (2 GB)
HDD: 74GB 10k Raptor, 60GB 7200rpm
Soundcard: Creative Audigy 2 Zs (Logitech X-530 5.1 surround sound)

Post away

Sell your Mobo, RAM and CPU. Then get new ones. You'll be looking at a pretty decent Mobo, an E6600 and 2GB of PC6400 RAM for that sort of money.

Yeah... Though I'd stay off intel and MS for a while.

Don't remember that? Anyway, as a personal choice, I would recommend that you sell your RAM, motherboard and CPU and get something along the lines of this:

Core 2 Duo (wait for the July 22 price drops and get what you can!) - $200
Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3 Motherboard - $130
2GB Corsair XMS2 PC2-6400C4 - $125

Total = $455

You'll easily sell your other components for much more than that, and if you have any extra cash you could go for an 8800 GTS!

yup, i just sold my old card (7900gt ko) on ebay for $150 and used the $150 i had to upgrade to an evga 8800gts ko. check out ebay and see what your components are going for and go from there. don't be looking to make a huge profit but rather look at it as more $ for your upgrade. what you sell your cpu/mobo/ram for plus the $325 should be enough for a intel 6600, 650i or 680i mobo, and 2gb of ddr2 ram. your vid card will hold you back when dx10 comes out but hey, who knows when that will be. it is plenty of pop for now though. if i were you i'd try to sell your cpu/mobo/ram bundled rather than seperate but hey, do what you want.

You can always try craigslist as well. It's not an auction site, but it's another option if something doesn't sell for as much as you want on eBay or something.
