1179088 2011-02-17 22:17:00 I don't think the build is worth $700 TBH! SolMiester (139)
1179089 2011-02-18 06:48:00 It's called Pricespy :p

Pricespy is for businesses selling new stuff, plus it is only a hub, you still have to go to the actually retailers website to buy. I am talking about second hand stuff, or businesses too, but everything is sold on the website like it is on trademe.

What do you suggest. considering that the parts are worth roughly $900 brand new even through a reputable retailer such as playtech?

Here is some photo's of the build.

What makes you come to that conclusion ?

Working out the WHOLESALE prices from the original post the actual cost for those parts alone is over $900.00

That doesn't include a Operating system - so one would have to be added in if you were to use windows.

While it could have a better power supply, the rest of the components are very reasonable.

-- I was actually taken aback from that comment from solmiester, I'm glad I wasn't the only one who doubted his statement
