Hey guys, hope everyone is doing well. So I just began working again and fully intend on getting back in the air (back on AH). I was planning on buying my own parts and such and just building my own PC from scratch (which I am not a whiz at that so it kind of worries me lol) or buying a new one and just upgrading it a bit. Then I thought to myself why not just ask around in here and see what I may be able to do. I am aware that most people when buying or building a new machine most likely throw out what they don't need or won't be using again. But I figured I would just ask. Have any of you in here bought or built a new system and possibly still have your old one that you would sell/let go of to a fellow AHer? I know some of our longtime vets may still have an old PC gathering dust in the closet somewhere lol. If so please let me know and if you would be willing to part with it. And I know beggers can't be choosers lol, but it would be most appreciated if it was setup to run AH like a gem...or if it would only require possibly a new Vid Card or something that is an easy fix. As I said, please let me know. Thanks all. :salute

I have a either 1tb hitachi hd or a 750hd I dont use anymore. plus a really nice sound sb card. I also have 2 monitors, but shipping them would be worth more than the monitors. if you live near los angeles, you can pick them up for free.
