Are you building your own computer? I suggest you do that. You will save tons of money.

Buy used things from lelong website. Look on ebay in Msia too.

Look at my sig. Those are all the rig that I built all by myself. My motherboard is lifetime warranty. But who keep computer after 2 yrs?

lol. who keeps computer after 2 years?

Im running pentium 4. 2.0ghz computet set since 2003/2004.

thanks kgb1.

Yes, i would prefer to build my own pc. or aka a rojak bundle. rather than a branded set.

Webbie, are you serious ???

But if you are only surfing and do word processing, etc .. a Pentium is fine.

I have no reason to built such an expensive computer also. Most of the stuff I buy is used and I resale it after few mths of use so I only lost a few dollars.

I do more than that.

I develop countless of websites, play numerous of old games, a lot photo editing. I manage my customer's website with it also. also went through thousands of emails with outlook.

I only upgraded the monitor from 17" CRT to 21" LCD

I bought the computer with Pro-com which doens't seem to exist anymore in Saberkas. lol.

I usually stick with my laptop until it RIP. only upgraded the ram once. My toughbook still using single core centrino. & XP home.

lol. and yes, running XP 32 bit also. lol

i just bought a system price around rm 2700~rm2900 for my fren.. (i dont know the exact price, coz she paid it uhuh) since she asked me to help her... i cant recall back all the spec since i bought it last january.. probably now the spec would be better..

i5 3.0 Ghz..
kingston 4gb pc1333
HDD Hitachi 1TB..
Mobo i cant remember but it's socket 1156..
Gigabyte ATi 5850..
the rest i cant remember.. with all those small stuff like the molex, cpu cooler (she's using CM but i forgot which model)...

The rest she is using all her old stuff... e.g Lian Li's casing, kibod, mouse etc...

that's all i can remmbr... huhu

all of these i bought in 3e, saberkas...

the price might expensive a lil bit... maybe rm 5~rm 10... but i dont care at all paying xtra 10 bucks for having a better sales service compared to other tenants especially pcimage.. their store might look marvellous, big vouge bla3... but trust me, all of the salesperson really dont treat us well, especially when they see 'us' in apek's attire... seriously...

How much does it cost if i want to buy the Window 7 license for laptop?
Currenly using license window Vista home premium, and 4GB ram.
but vista can only support 3GB, and use up lots of capacity.
so should i maintain vista or upgrade to window 7?
