I'd advice you not too. It's price is too high for it's features. If you have a certain budget for your pc then I'd advice you to look for a cheap online pc store and order all components seperatly. Putting a pc together is pretty easy and will save you a lot of money.

If you need advice then post your budget limit and a good store in the uk too order and we will try make a good selection for you.

The seller is giving too little information. And the little info he gives, is giving me the impression that he doesn't know what he is talking about. He multiplied the clock frequency with the number of cores this pc's processor has. As if a 3.375 Ghz dual core is exactly as fast as a "normal" processor of 6.750 Ghz. The processor this machine has is excellent by the way, as long as the so-called front-side bus is quick enough. Else you will get a huge bottle neck. But nothing is said about that front-side bus, neither about the graphics card. Buying this system is a huge risk, since it is very hard to determine whether it is of real quality. I should not take the risk if I were you.

Edit: Oh sorry, above at the screen the details are put. Well, I agree with Gazz.

Richard, under the MB features down the page it says "compatible with all 1333/1066/800/533 cpu's except quad core" What else are you looking for? Are you talking about the internal clock's actual speed?

Well, this webpage was really messy, the most important info was on the page's most peripheral places. Specs spread everywere, I don't know whether all E-bay is like this but that Lay-out sucks IMHO.
About the part I quoted: saying the clock speed is 6.whatever is not really a matter of accurate info. It is 2x 3.whatever, which makes a difference in practice. When doing e-selling, a salesperson should always be accurate.

I agree with your sister!

I think it doesn't look all that bad , its just a bit pricey...

Processor Speed:
6,750 MHz

Since when has model number been relative to actual clock speeds?
I wouldn’t buy anything from that salesman
