Hey all! I’ve got some miscellaneous computer parts for sale.  All of the following parts are compatible and worked really well for me.  I would prefer to sell everything together as it would make it easier for shipping, however I’m willing to take other offers as well. 

First up I have a SOYO K7VTA PRO Motherboard with AMD Athlon XP1800+ processor that comes mounted on the motherboard with recommended heatsink/fan combo kit.  The motherboard has onboard audio, AGP 1X/2X/4X support. The motherboard is basically plug and play with no internal jumpers to set CPU speed.  (well only one, but it’s already set right…)

To go with the motherboard/processor combo I have the following memory which works with the motherboard for a total of 896MB RAM. 
     512MB PC133
     256MB PC133
     128MB PC100

I also have a Seagate barracuda 7200RPM 40GB hard drive. 

To continue with this setup I have a set of two desktop powered speakers that are compatible with the motherboard. 

As of right now I would like to sell the above mentioned parts and connecting cables (Drive cables and internal audio cables) for $275USD plus shipping.  I  prefer that the buyer take all parts since they all will work together real nicely. 

I also have a Saitek Cyborg Graphite joystick with throttle on stick as well as 3 programmable buttons, 1 trigger, and hat switch. This joystick is USB, but should be able to connect to gameport if one were to have a USB to Gameport adapter.  Unfortunately the joystick is not force feedback capable .  I bought it new for $39.99USD for a friend who bought a force feedback Logitech a week later, so I would be willing to sell it for $15USD. 

As mentioned above, buyer will need to either pick up their parts at my place...(Somewhere in Ohio…) or pay the shipping costs to their location. 

Now for the details.  I was running CFS3 and FSACOF, and Windows XP. With a Geforce FX5200 128MB video card and my 40GB Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM drive I was able to turn the sliders in FSACOF, and CFS3 up to medium settings and still get decent frame rates (18-25FPS) in high traffic areas, and detailed scenery.  I’m sure that if I were to have put a 256MB video card in, or upgraded the memory further that I would have gotten frame rates in the upper 3o’s or so with this system.  Running everyday applications and Windows XP the system is extremely stable…(I don’t really remember it locking up at all…)
