Sooo, my computer needed a desperate overhaul and i did it all for 105 bucks!

Upgraded processor - 2.6 to a 3.0 (25 bucks spent)
Upgraded RAM - 2gb clocked at 337MB/s to 4GB clocked at 667 (75 bucks)
Upgraded Video Card (Long time ago but this is why i upgraded the rest) Nvidia 8600 to ATI HD4850 (100 bucks)
Upgraded Power Supply - 250w to 400w (Free!)

So the Processor and Power supply i got form a friend! =D
He bought a 3.8 quad core so he sold me his old one. and the power supply he had laying around and gave to me for freez

Is the CPU single core or dual core with each running at 3.0?

Ram, Pretty expensive for that slow of a clock..

Video card,

good card

Powersupply, LOL! 250w?at least you have more now, does 400 run all of that stuff even?

My math calculates $200

Not bad for a little upgrade, do you use a 32 bit OS or 64?

The video card doesnt count. Because thats not recent
The 400w does run it all fine
im on Win7 64.
