hey bandit, does a ssystem like this make a bit of heat? Noticed that the computer im getting has just 2 fans (+1 on the video), but that doesnt sound like many. Also, how much do fans cost and how easy are they to add? Thanks



I brought a fan called a "PCI exhaust fan" or something lol It just slots into a pci slto and you plug to your main power supply and it blows the hot air out the back and keeps the whole system cool, and only cot 11bucks!!! I got of trademe but I think I saw it in smiths dick for 15 or something B)

You need to get out mate and catch up with real events rather than sitting on your but in your fantasy world.

The reason Tradme has withdrawn Laptops suddenly and the price has dropped out is because of the mass amount that was stolen in Christchurch a week ago.

BUYER BEWARE!!!!!

Cheap version of XP? Now that I would also steer clear of with the Anti Piracy that Micro$ has installed with its operating system. Chances are that disc may only be worthy of a Coffe Cup stand or a frisbie.

Again BUYER BEWARE!!!!
