smart ass lol.
i'm gonna ask the people to build it for me so i figured when i ask i'll know what exactly to ask for so they don't lie/trick me into buying more expensive stuff.

i can email a super cheap computer build that is actually quality. all of these parts have superior customer reviews and ratings. this is just a barebone computer though (w/o keyboard, mouse, monitor, or operating system). the total cost is less than 250 dollars. the wonders of Newegg..
if your interested, just drop me a pm and ill gladly email you the list

Thats true A.D. but someone's older model comes with older problems 9 out of ten times... slowing down or degenerating so to speak.. if not other problems like hidden trojans or virus'. People here in phx also have power supply problems a month later or so.. Classified's are great way to find treaures for cheap but you need to dig deep to find them..

or could wait for the newyear sales and when they release a cleaner core2. which means the older ones will drop heavy in price including the BB kits.
