Hey buddy,

That pc is a bit outdated so finding info about the specs is a bit hard. Hopefully you can help out.

1 x 80gb HDD

1 x 200gb HDD (pretty sure it's SATA)

Are both of them SATA? What's the brand(s) and had any problems?

Radeon X850XT

Is this AGP or PCI-e? Also, how many mb of memory?

Blue Thermaltake Xaser V case with something like 5 built in fans and fan control/temp monitor

Does the fan control/temp monitor work perfectly?

I noticed in one of your pictures the power supply was an Antec. What model is it? How many watts? And how old is it?

EDIT: Could you tell me the model number of the motherboard too? Thanks

Also, where are you located?

Thanks :P

Sorry just saw this post now...Best to PM me so I see it quicker

1. Only the 200gb is SATA, The brand is Western Digital (Model number - WD2000JS-98MHB0)

The 80gb is Western Digital as well (Model number - WD800JB-00ETA0)

Never had an issue with either of them..

2.The video card is PCI-E and 256mb DDR3

3.Fan controller works fine. From memory I disconnected one of fan speed sensors because one of the fans wasn't compatible with the sensor or something and obviously the controller thought the fan was stopped, which it wasn't.

4.The power supply is an Antec True 480 (480W). Can't remember how old it is, but it's newer than the rest of the computer because my old one died so I replaced it with the Antec...

5.Motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-K8NF-9

6. I'm located in Hoppers Crossing, western suburbs of Melbourne...

Think that's all of em...Like I said if there's anything else you want to know, it's best to PM me for a faster reply :)

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
