    FS: M2-300 based machine, full tower!

    All this for only $125!!!

    Ok, this machine has an M2-333 clocked down to 300 for stability, a 512mb hard disk, 32mb ram, huge tower case (black), 20X cd, both types of disket drive (one one is connected now), PCI video, 32 bit sound, even a nice big fan heatsink on the CPU. I have Red Hat linux 6.0 loaded on there, and it des look almost like Windows, and a lot faster. There is a problem: the power switch does not work correctly, it only powers down by disconnecting the power cord from the back of the case, I am sure this could be fixed with a new switch.

    *No Harm Meant by this POST*

    I'll take it if you pay me [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img] No I am just joking. It would be a good price for the stuff if the Cyrix wasn't in there. The other suspicious thing is that te Cyrix runs underclocked. Those are suppose to run stable at the PR rating which is I believe like 233MhZ when you buy the PR333 [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img]

    P.S.: Buy anything else but a CYRIX People they suck.

    The M2 is slower because the motherobard does not do 83mhz, at all, but it does do 75, I ordered this chip to alow me to underclock a bit and make it more stable, becides, I could lower the voltage, always a plus with a cyrix. By the way, an M2 300 is faster than an MMX 233, it has tons of cache, almost the same MHZ, MMX, and even AMD 3DNOW! technologies. I picked it over the 233 MMX for a reason.

    Ok, since noone wants to buy it all at once, I will split it up:

    Video card (s3): $7
    Hard Disk (512mb): $10
    Motherobard+CPU: $65
    Case w/disket drives: $45

    Last chance for this stuff, if I cannot get these prices , I will just sink $75 into it an make it cool myself.

    ***URL REMOVED*** I put that thing up, it was free so I figured, "why not?" The reserve on it is $150, first bid $100, I will consider amounts between those poles.

    KillerBug, I'm disappointed in you. You should know that auction links are not allowed here, for the sake of the membership. This is your one and only warning.

    Looks like a good deal to me killerbug. If I was looking for a second system I would buy it.

    Ok, no one wants it? By the way, I set up that auction so that people could make offers on it.

    I know that's why you put it up KillerBug. However, auctions are against policy - prices are the way to go - if no one buys at the price you're asking, then lower it or don't sell it. [img]/forum/smile.gif[/img] (supply and demand)
