I found an Alienware ALX on craigslist for $250
Here is also what he said:
I bought this off here and It is a functioning computer. My plans with it were to just use the case and the cooling system and none of the components since I was going to completely rebuild the system.
The liquid cooling system is made by Koolance (very high end cooling components a new system can start at 300 www.koolance.com) and they recommend changing the liquid every 2-3 years so I drained that out and waiting for the new liquid to arrive. I ran into some billing issues and won't be able to complete this system unfortunately.
I am not including a hard drive since I did use the computer before I took it apart. I could wipe it for you if you would like but there will be no OS on it.
Everything that's included is:
Alienware case which has some scratches and blemishes but looks good for its age(missing alienware head on the front door unfortunately the other seller couldn't find it)
Alienware 750watt powersupply
Foxconn motherboard with a Amd athlon 64 FX 62 dual Coree processor 2.80ghz
2 Nvidia GeForce 7900 GTX liquid cooled cards with SLI connection
4GBs of Patriot DDR 2 Ram
Update:
I didn't have time at first to reconnect everything but I found the time. It runs and boots up fine I can't take some pictures to prove it. Send me an offer the worst I can say is no. I'm looking for 250 or best offer
I was suprised to see an Alienware this cheap, even though it does not have a hard drive. I was wondering if it is worth it? Right now I am using an i7 Toshiba laptop, which on the market is $500 right now, but I do not want to buy a computer that doesn't work.
First of all, he said that he just bought it off of craigslist wanting to use the casing, but decided not to, and second, he said that he does not have any pictures to prove that it runs. I have some questions about the computer.
1.) What is the intel core? or is this something I would have to ask him?
2.) Would I have to buy a graphics card for gaming, or would it already have one?
Sorry, I'm kind of new to this gaming computer things, but I need an upgrade now that I am running games and trying to program at the same time
Thank you for the support!
