Whose cure, he hasn't even posted in this thread yet...

The person who should get it should at least have around 1500 posts or more, someone who contributes

Thats real nice of you Dan. T3Ders take care of their own.

Mince your specs make me laugh, there are video cards out now with more memory and faster bus speeds than your computer. I bet there are calculators with higher specs.

I'm trying to evolve.

bingo, if you don't need the power, you don't need it. if I didn't game, I wouldn't care really what computer I had. you can browse the internet on just about anything. Even the system I have now is fine for the games I play. Sure I wish it was a tad faster but not worth spending the money to upgrade it instead of eating lol.

well crap...I was hoping for a cheap, to free excuse for building an htpc, but I read your post, and I don't qualify.

I hope someone who really needs it, gets it. props to you Dan, for giving to T3D charity ...but if you dont get anyone I'll gladly accept

I never need it, but Im always updating my computer. I buy like 2 upgrades a year. Generally 1-2 years per mobo and cpu. Then I give my gf my old stuff.

Her computer is a 4200x2, 2 gig ddr2, x1900xtx. The most intense thing she does on it, is open word. But if I want to dual log on a game I always can

oh how I wish I could do that lol. it's also laughable that a 4200x2, 2gig ddr, x1900xtx is your "old" hardware .

Until two years ago my dad had a P1 86MHZ with a 500mb HDD. Then right before I went to boot camp it died and I set him up with a new one.

I make myself laugh.

maybe this could be a new T3D trend? I know I have a bunch of older stuff lying around gathering dust...

Who ever gets this comp, I have an 7600gts I will throw in for you for free (-shipping) and I have 2gig of OCZ 5-5-5-12 DDR2 800mhz That I would sell cheap. Maybe like 30 bones or something.

That pretty much is an entire comp build.

Tweak, let me know who you decide to give this to and I will send the video card if they want it.

i think it's a good idea. maybe just a post with everybody's "old" computer stuff and we can give it away to tweak3d members for free or cheap.

Just an update guys.. I sent this stuff for Mince because I thought he needed it the most. Even though he didn't say "give it to me!" or anything, I knew he wouldn't mind getting an upgraded PC

I also sent out a PCI-E Radeon x850 and some RAM (just a small amount, it's all I had.. 512 MB). If anyone's got a HDD or PSU they could give him, or some extra DDR2 memory, he'd have a whole computer.

I'm Tweak3D's self-appointed mayor.
