Western Digital 640gb HDD
AMD Phenom X4 9750
Turtle Beach Montego Sound card
Vista Home Premium
ASUS M3A78-EM Mobo
and with 1 Year free parts and Labor.

Bad News is that there is a sticker on the side panel so that if i want to remove the side panel, i would have to remove the sticker and it voids the warranty. So even if there is a problem and I know how to fix it, such as me wanting to clean the fans, I have to take it into them and wait 3 days for them to fix it.
Also, I have do dl all of my music and games again...

Ill have it by Wednesday. But I wont play games until I get my music and everything downloaded on Thursday.

That for $1087? I don't see why they couldn't of put a Phenom II in there.
They skipped out on the motherboard and PSU, the PSU has only 18A on 2 +12V rails, and the motherboard is mATX still a great motherboard though.
 
Cool amigo! It sounds nice.

Speaking of cool dads... When I was trying to get my first car together I was failing miserably. Car wouldn't run, was a piece of crap, etc. So my dad just said, "(F-word) it!" and bought me a 1979 Firebird Formula. It was schweet.

So !up for all cool dads out there.
 
nice, just like my dad, i had an old computer that had so many problems with it, my dad just one day up and said 'lets go get a new one' :p

all hail cool dads XD

3GB Ram
640GB Drive
only 350w Supply :(( (Fail) but putting 650w in soon (HD 4650 min req is 400, lawl)
 
My dad pays for half, i saved up 500 he covered the rest. :D

And congrats with the computer thing.

!up Scary Person's dad
 
My dad just builds my computers :) But if he built me a new one, I'd be suprised.
 
Leave the sticker on for a month or two then take it off. If the computer is complete cheap crap, you will notice after a month.
