This is just an excuse for you to have Moderator power, right Mustang? ;) j/k...

I hate my computer. It is evil, and it's trying to destroy my life, one piece at a time. I'm seriously considering giving it a new case, and stuff... maybe a new MB (So I can put more RAM, etc on it) (And it would have an AGP port.... YAY)...

Anyone know where I could go about doing that? Kit, do you know any good places North of the Border?

It's an ASUS 7700 GeForce2 32MB GTS, I gonna buy it from this local store at 328$, or I can get one with an TV adapter at 366$, but I don't need an adapter, so I'm gonna pay 328$

Do you live in Canada? Cause ordering something 200$ in the state would come to 400$ at my door. The price I gave you was Canadian price, at a store down my street from my workplace

Tell me about it, I'm thinking of moving to the states later, but the thing that stops me, is that our hospital are free, yours are friging expensive, even do I never when to the hospital in like 6 years, but accidents apens

I bougth the case for 10$, but it did'nt have a power supply in it, so I made a custum fit to fit the old one in it, it's not good looking, but I can fit more than one CDROM and a bigger board, but a good case would usally be around 50$, for the MB, I'm probably gonna get an ASUS for 250$, but you can get decent boards for under 100$

w00f! I got a 128 wand of RAM, so now my computer is a super computer! (Well, not really... but it's a step up from 64 MB)... I think I'll just save my money up, and Frankenstein my own computer later, instead of worrying about this one, simply because my parents would never let me take this piece of junk anywhere... Even to my friend's LAN party down the road.. :(

My parents computer was an 75MHz, and the would'nt buy a new so I got my own, it's really nice since you can do waht you want with, background, desktop, homepage, everything, even make it look like frankinstain
