Well I sold my baby… er… I mean computer!

It was time to let her go out into the world and experience everything she can! lol… I just needed the money. But the next computer I build is going to be the “Big Bertha” of computers compared to the other 2 I have built. Now its not going to have the most expensive parts available, I’m not rich here, but it will have the more advanced parts available and be the most powerful compared to the others I’ve built.  Here is a quick parts list I started from newegg.

1. Motherboard: ASUS P5E LGA 775 Intel X38 ATX $224.99
2. Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 Yorkfield 2.5GHz LGA 775 95W Model BX80580Q9300 $259.99
3. Computer Memory: G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) $49.99
4. Video Card: (2 of these guys!) EVGA 512-P3-N801-AR GeForce 8800 GT 512MB $134.99
5. Power Supply: OCZ GameXStream OCZ700GXSSLI 700W ATX12V $114.99
6. Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3250410AS 250GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s $59.99
7. CD/ DVD Burner: LITE-ON 20X Black SATA Model iHAS120-04 $23.99
8. Computer Case: Antec P182 Gun Metal Black 0.8mm cold rolled steel ATX $109.99

Subtotal:     $1,113.91

Now im sure this list will change a lot since its entirely base off parts avalible on neweggs website and I prefer to get my parts directly from a store like Frys. When I start to build it ill give an update. If anyone like’s this set up or needs a computer build for them, just let me know. I would be happy to help.

Okay, this is a situation. I’m selling my computer on craigslist and another guy emailed me posing as a buyer. He emails me some very odd questions and starts some what of an internet war between us. I finished it and made him look like the tool he is. This is a long post so sit back and get ready to read.

I removed the names and email addresses for privacy.

I wanted to make a post today regarding your computer and keeping it clean. There are a LOT of different programs available to take care of this for you. My goal is to show you the ones that work and best of all are free! All the programs and information I give you are based off what I use and practice myself. There are other applications and practices used that work just as well, this is just my personal preference.

I am going to keep this as short as possible. There is a lot of information I can give on this subject but it will just take up to much time and you can visit their site to get it all anyways. So here we go.

Its been a little while but I just uploaded a few new videos to Chloe’s Videos page.

As a nother side note, my account with Flickr has expired so you might have noticed a lot of the pictures are gone. I just need to pay for the unlimited use on my account again and it will all be put back on. Once I get it fixed I’ll also have more pictures to put up. We have just been to busy with Chloe, work, and just life in general to remember to put up the new stuff.
