Staphyl Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Hello, I want a Macbook, 20" HD ACD, and Mac mini 1.66 Ghz Core Duo. Total: $2,800 w/o tax or shipping I have a very nice Hackintosh. P4 HTT, SSE3, PAE 3.2 Ghz 1GB DDR2 RAM (1 stick) 200 GB SATA Seagate Barracuda DVD+-RW 8x4x24 DVD-ROM 8:1 Media Reader w/ USB 2.0 and Firewire. Intel D915GUXLK Intel GMA 900 (CI/QE/OpenGL/2D&3D Accel) All of this stuff works flawless on my Hackintosh. Im asking all who see this to give me a REALISTIC price on what i should sell it for. If i did. Its worth $1600 New... The computer is about a year old....not bad if i do say so myself. Also, i heard that Mash got a Macbook Pro by using macs.free4me.net does that work? If so i could just do that and just save my self about $1500. Staphyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernalzero Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Well you aren't going to get $1600, honestly I'm not sure you'll get $500+ for the setup. It's not that it's a bad setup but like you said it's 1 year old. The hardware available now for the same price is far superior including low cost Pentium D dual core processors (PD 805 ~$100 @ newegg). I'd say ~$75 for the P4, ~$75 for the DDR (pc3200?), ~$75 for the SATA HDD, $20 for the DVDRW, $10 for the DVDROM, ~$50 for the mobo with GMA900. I'm assuming the whole thing comes with the case, PSU and HSF for the p4 so add ~$50. So I'd expect you to make around ~$355 for the setup I'm sorry if this isn't what you expected, it is just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwprod12 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 This is how much I could buy that system for new locally. $120 for the CPU. $70 for the motherboard. $70 for the 1GB DDR2 ram. $40 for the dvdrw. $60 for the SATA hard drive $20 for the DVDrom. $40 for the case and power supply. $420 before tax.

Staphyl Posted June 29, 2006 Author Share Posted June 29, 2006 I can understand that....but for someone who has MESSED AND MESSED with OSx86 and tried to get it working. Its a good deal....honestly Im not going to sell it, but i wanted to know what you guys would say, i know it wouldn't be a high price. Im going to try the referrals program instead of saving up for 4 months to get a Macbook. But thanks anyway.... Peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munky Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 In a similar vein, can people give me some idea of how much I should look for for the following system: Intel D945GTLPR Mobo (firewire, sound, onboard LAN working) Onboard GMA950 (fully supported) Pentium D 920 (2.8Ghz dual core, 2Mb cache per core) GeCube Radeon X1800XL PCI-E 256Mb (working under Boris method) 1Gb Corsair VS DDR2-667 RAM (2x512Mb in dual-channel mode) 160Gb SATA-3 500W PSU DVD RW (black) all in a nice black case All working very nicely with 10.4.6 (havent tried 10.4.7 yet, but I assume it'll work). Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwprod12 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 assuming it's a desktop... probably $600 (depending on how much the x850 is worth. Used, I think about $150) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwprod12 Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Well, I dunno. I guess the core duos are expensive. I wont buy one tho. Talk about a lack of performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
