medyo mahal pa rin yata sa rising sun eh..... I bought some parts at dreamchum before, but they never honor their advertised prices at buy n sell. :(

For example:

say, athlon xp 1.6 at 10thou....aba, okei! so i go there.....

...well, well, the price just jacked up to 12.5 thou! :( I show 'em the advertisement, but they simply point to "prices and specifications subject to change" disclaimer.

...but i only bought the friggin' buy n sell paper an hour ago! :mad:

i think rsuncomputers is reliable, they sell at exactly the same price as they advertise and also with the pricelist at the website.. they have an atlon xp 1600+ for P7900.. btw. I've had a good experience buying from them.. bought a rig last month or so as a gift for my nephew..

also i had the same experience with dreamchum, those morons advertised a cd drive as 1700 when i went there they charged me 2000, and i never went there ever again..

7770....hmmm.....maybe I could manage that, but then again, I don't usually run apps that need a lotta power like 3D studio max or Autocad....I just use VB, maybe C++, and Winamp. :p oh, and VGS too. :p


then again, my bro's a freshman in architecture....maybe I can convince my parents to support me in this! :D


...uh-oh. I haven't even thought of the video card! :cry: :cry: :cry:
