| FS: Cicero computer w/ monitor - Click HERE for Original Thread |
| HiTempguy |
A little while ago I bought a Cicero desktop from Futureshop. It came with the following:
P4 2.5ghz
256mb PC3200 DDR
40gb 7200 rpm hd
17" non-flat screen monitor
Windows XP OEM edition (includes a recovery disk)
logitech wireless keyboard and mouse
Windows service pack 1
Microsoft Office 2003 (iirc)
CD-RW
ATI Radeon 9200SE 128mb video card
(I can't think of anything else at the moment, ask for specific information and I will look).
At the time, I was into games like Halo PC and KOTR, and the machine worked well when I overclocked the 9200se (it could run Halo PC at 800x600 resolution quite decently). I needed better graphics however, so I upgraded it to a retail box ATI Radeon 9800pro. I also added another stick of ram (Kingston 256mb PC3200 DDR). This computer is PERFECT for someone in need of an inexpensive computer that can play newer games at decent resolutions (I can play Doom 3 on it at 1024x768 with medium-high detail). Also works well for someone in need of Microsoft office programs (a disk is not included however). With everything (including a few games that could be thrown in) I am asking $550 obo. Parts can be taken off accordingly and replaced if needed to lower the price , and as always the final price is negotiable. I still have the 9200SE to put back in, OR it even has integrated graphics on the motherboard (perfect for non-gaming situations). |

| Is it? I wouldn't know, haven't been in the computer thing for a little while. I am open to offers (including lowballs). All I know is that it runs the games I play well! |

| Ayeso |
| Yeah its a relic :P Im selling my amd athlon 64 with 1gb ram, 160gb hdd geforce 6600gt + tons of other stuff for 700 |

| Ok, so I'll drop the price to $550 obo with everything :D |
|
|
| HiTempguy |
| Well, after looking into it further, it looks like $450 obo might be a better number to start at! |

| How much for just the hard drive (with Windows)? I bought pretty much the same Cicero from FutureShop 3 years ago and my hdd is fried. |

| Not willing to part out, unless if you want to give me like $200 for the harddrive w/ all of the software on it (it can also be system restored clean) ;) . |
|

| How much if you do the sys restore first? |
|
|
| HiTempguy |
| Same price ;) The point of the system restore would be to give you a clean slate... the nice thing is though that I tweaked WIN XP to the max with all of the little registry settings and what not, its simply amazing when it takes 10 seconds for your computer to boot to the desktop! |

Alright, I'll pass. I just need one for a 'just-in-case' if I have to use Windows instead of Linux. |
