sure Shawn, I will, let me finish Momentums challenge first, and as the looks of it, I can build one that is exactly the same for a couple hundred less, just taking a bit of time, newegg's site is a little slow.

Add Misc software, it wont be a good 250 more or however.

also quoting the free LCD 17" from above, in this world, nothing is free, and im sure you all know it.

Anyways sorry for the stuff, I can see i'm not wanted here, and i'm not making some dramatic leaving here, just tired of this arguing and stuff proving whos right whos wrong, this is exactly why the world's all fucked up right now, but anyways if you guys want me to leave this forum, I will.

zamo

We want you to give your point clearly, thats it.

Name

well, theres my point up above.... sorry I cant spend my whole day proving if im right or wrong.... anyways im off to do some yard work =D later.

btw( I'll compromise, Dell is very good in some ways, but in MY opinion because I love to build custom PC's I, myself like my own made ones more.

Scrib

Get to the fucking point is all... Jesus. You can't beat the price. So just own up like a man and be done with it.

Fucking whiner...

momentum3.2

I've had to do it many many many times here and that's why I'm taken seriously when I post nowadays...atleast I hope I am. But I make sure I'm clear.


I also noticed that you didn't put in a SATA drive. You just used IDE ATA. SATA requires a managment card (PCI, just like a Dell PERC card), that performs RAID functions or just interfaces with the mobo.

Also, who's Rosewill? ECS? is that video card an actual ATI video card or the ATI chipset with a thirdparty board/instruction set? 1394 interface? Corel Wordperfect, MS office, Money, etc. will add up to WAY over $250. And your inclusive 1, 2, 3, or 4 year warranty?

, no points.

Name

1394 comes with the ECS board built in LAN/Ethernet card, Sata card comes with ABIT Mainboards, NF7-S, POWERCOLOR is a company such as Sapphire, that makes the ATI chipset, Rosewill is a fine company for Monitors, ECS is a well known mainboard company, who who the fuck are you kidding? you really going to use some of those programs? cause your a ignorant little piece of shit, as well as the rest of the fuckers on this site, shut the fuck up? and yes Scrib you hipocritical faggot blow me. Ive been playing the nice guy, and yeah, well fuck it if you guys are going to be total assholes, ban me for all the fuck I care, if not it doesnt matter I'll leave on my own, cause no one gives a shit anyways, and this thread will be forgotten in 2 days. Just my bit of advice dont start up shit that you dont know, do some research you flaming morons, also btw, I really dont give a shit about rep points, I like to show people where they are wrong, but if they do not listen it is not up to me.

zamo

Name, you are complete incompetent NOT accepting the truth and managing this case accordingly. If you could not prove your reason, fuck it, just say it and we are cool.

You start saying all this shit, makes me think you are a complete ignorant who rans away when a problem arises and raises hell to anyone who asked you about it.

Name

your kidding me? I just spent an hour making a PC with the specs exact of the Dell one for 250 less, and this guy gives me some bullshit? yeah fuck off.

Scrib

lol

"hipocritical faggot"???

First, it's hypocritical. So not only do you suck at building PCs but you can't spell worth a shit.

And with that... How am I hypocritical? I have yet to post anything regarding your ability to provide Shawn a better price. Do please tell me how I'm being hypocritical.

First off, I will not spend my whole day proving im correct and your wrong, that is childish, I would think one is enough, secondly commenting on someones speech online is the stupidest comeback I have ever, ever seen.

: careface :

I repeat, blow me, you think I give a shit?

your being a HYPOCRITE by saying whiner to me, when have I whined? I have backed up everything I said with a straight fact, and proof but yet you and your butt buddies still whine.
