Hey guys... this is something I saw on eBay. I don't know if its against the rules to post eBay links.. If it is then I apologise in advance. :P

The link to the computer on eBay.

AMD Sempron 3000+

Gigabyte Motherboard

1GB DDR PC3200 400MHz RAM

128 ATI Radeon 9250 Video Card

550W Power Supply and Case

Samsung 16x Dual Layer DVD-RW

Maxtor 80GB HDD 7200rpm

Is it worth it?

Thanks.

without looking it up, that system sounds almost exactly like the 'value' premade comps they sell on msy.com.au, all generic parts and about $300ish.

Anyway I'd be asking if u can pick it up in person, before bidding on it.

Hi there,

I couldn't find anything that sounds like this one. I checked the website you gave and the only value computer there has less stuff. The value one has onboard graphics, 256MB memory and no DVD burner. It says the dvd burner costs 60 dollars more and it doesn't have the option to let you put 1GB. It also doesn't have the option to let you put a graphics card on it.

Could you help?

I think they've changed the list since I last looked at it, they used to have o/s included and different systems slightly. Asus m/bs are better than Gigabyte anyhow. I'm about 98% sure they used to have Gigabyte m/boards in their cheap systems.

Anyway you can use it for a price comparison at least.

Dual layer burners cost about $60 outright atm, of course d/l discs are still about $4-7 depending on quantity (single/l you can get about 50 for $25).

Ram is about $50 for 512mb.

Anyway this is all beside the point if he's a dodgy seller and just trying to rip people off :ban:

I'd still be asking if you can pick it up in person.

And I wouldn't bid over $300odd for it as for not much more you could get it from a reputable shop with a 12month warranty.

Good luck! :wacko:

      Blue slip

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
