A place to converse about the general aspects of flight simulation in New Zealand

Postby Kelvinr » Tue May 01, 2012 7:55 pm

Included:
CPU:
Intel Core i7 3930K 6 CORE 3.2GHz Processor Socket 2011

MOTHERBOARD:
Asus SABERTOOTH X79 MB, Socket 2011, X79, 8x DDR3

CASE:
Corsair Carbide 500R MID TOWER CASE

COOLING:
CORSAIR H80 LIQUID COOLING

Video Card:
NVIDIA EVGA GTX 570 1.2GB

DVD Writer:
LiteON DVD R/RW

Hard Drive:
1TB w 64MB Cache Western Digital Caviar "Black Edition"

**Case:
Corsair Carbide 500R

**Please note the fan switch on the front of the case is unserviceable due to overheating of the power cable. The previous person I got it off tried plugging a molex power cable directly into their power supply, silly move. I purchased the case at an extremely good price so I am not expecting much markup on it due to this issue. However the case is undamaged and is one of Corsair's newest cases on the market, a very tidy case it is. All you need to complete this monster build is a power supply (min 650Watt and around $250) and memory ($125 for 8GB 4x2dimms). I have flashed the bios to the latest version for stability as per manufacturers recommendations.

let's just say that for about $2000 you could have a complete working PC if you include PSU and memory, which you will not find in any retail store at this price.

All this for $1650. drool.gif

Hi all,

Just been doing some juggling and tweaking of this deal and edited my initial post accordingly. I will end up putting on Trade Me if no one is interested. I am not as rushed to sell as noted earlier.

Interested, yes, dollars available, no... sad.gif Hope you get a sale here tho so you avoid the TM sales-tax. What about putting it up on sella or EzyAuction for a week or 2? I know they have only a fraction of the TM traffic, but no sales-fee-tax...

Hey IB,

I have just this moment added to another forum I visit with a sale thread, this will avoid fees and such. I know most people won't be able to afford this, especially in the general community who run 2600k/2700k systems. I expect that, for the price, this won't take too long to sell.

Hi Andy,

Yes it is. I have reviewed the price for this rig and broken down the costing below as I had made an error with the cost above. However, if you are interested we can discuss further.

I just need to clarify a few items with reference to my initial price offer. I had miscalculated the cost slightly.

See below for the cost breakdown of the items in question. Below is RETAIL cost only not my offered price

CPU retail price: $891
MOBO retail price: $557
H80 Cooler retail price: $205
Video Card: $468
Hard Drive: $185
Case: $200

that's $2500 All up if you purchased brand new. All this for $1650.
I apologise for my underestimation of my pricing (I would make a terrible accountant). I was a little ahead of myself. You can see the obvious discount here. This will include warranty on mainboard and cpu, i'll dig out the recepit.

If your interested give me a PM. The case is included.

Let me know if you have any questions at all. I will reedit above post so there is no confusion.
