Got a 550w TruePower in retail box for 70. Quite happy with it, probably not gonna buy mobo/cpu/ram refurb though.

3 for 5....got an Asus A7N8X 2.0, 2x 256mb of Kingston Hyper-X, and an Athlon XP 2600+. Naturally the ram didn't work with the board, so I returned it and got some Crucial.

MSI KT3-Ultra ARU

Onboard sound was really crappy (bass weak), so el cheapo sound card was bought. One IDE Port myseriously died four months ago, but that could happen to any motherboard, so I wouldn't mind doing the refurb roulette again :)
