Hello, SPCR!

For sale I have my computer, Goliath. It's a decent performer, with some mods made by Yours Truly.

Specs:
CPU: AMD X2 5200+ [email protected]
Mobo: MSI K9N SLI Platinum
VGA: Sapphire Radeon x1950 Pro
RAM: 2GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800
HDD: 2x160 GB 7200 RPM
PSU: Taiwanese (?) 430W(the guy at the uni computer shop said this brand is near Antec in terms of quality, in his experience)

Case: Modded Rosewill R5604-TBK (excellent Newegg reviews)
Networking: TRENDnet 108mbps wireless g adapter
Audio: Plantronics .audio 770 USB headset
OS: Option for WinXP clean install. Zeroed disks by default.

Mods:
Cut a window in the side, siliconed in acrylic panel
Sleeved cables in UV blue
Added dual 12" UV cold cathodes
Swapped casefans for quieter 120mm blue LED Yate Loons
Swapped PSU fan for quieter panaflo spec'd clear blue 80mm
Swapped CPU fan for thicker, quieter 70mm fan (I still have stock fan, if you prefer)

"Other" side with bezel and top lids open. A bit dusty, guess I missed cleaning there.

Sale Stuff
For shipping costs, I live in Albuquerque, NM, 87106. I would prefer to ship via UPS, both for lowest cost and package tracking. I don't have a PayPal account (sorry!), but sending a check after either I ship or you receive would work well.

Admittedly, the rig does have two small issues. The first is that the mobo's onboad sound is dead. Right now, I am using the USB sound on the headset listed above. The second issue is related- the headset's mic is nonfuctional. I have it ziptied up and out of the way. The headphones still sound great, and are the most comfortable I have ever worn.

I did some searching on The Egg and Google, and for everything new the computer would cost about $600.

PM if interested.
