Subsim Swap Shop

Herr-Berbunch · 09-09-10, 09:42 AM

Right, who has stuff like graphics cards and RAM just sitting around gathering dust? Is it very obsolete (ie almost useless), or are you constantly upgrading but can't be bothered sticking it on ebay - all the time it's getting older and less valuable!

Who else out there has a PC that can run games, but just doesn't have enough oomph to make it properly enjoyable? Low FPS anyone? We've all been there, and most of us have at some point been too skint to fix it.

Are you getting my drift yet folks?

List what you've got spare, any takers PM you for it? RAM is really cheap to post to the other side of the world. Graphics cards are a bit more but if we can try and keep the heavier/larger items to your own domestic arena.

The more people playing these games the better - so chip in, or request away (sensibly - we'd all like an i7 processor or GTX480, it ain't gonna happen!)

So, good idea?

Quite a good one!

I already got all my upgrades and I gotta say it's great

Hey what's up with no givers and no takers? Were better than that, or at least some of you are

I received all my upgrades and it really felt like Christmas lol.

Let me start- anyone needs a totally broken 250gb drive?

Arclight · 09-20-10, 09:34 PM

Nice idea, but my friends are already begging for my left-overs.

Maybe a 386DX, or a Comodore 64?

Herr-Berbunch · 09-21-10, 06:56 AM

Nice one Kiwi, a great start...

JSLTIGER · 09-21-10, 07:55 AM

Say Kiwi, the 6200, 6600 and 7600 GS....are those the AGP or PCIe varieties? I know that the 9600XT is AGP flavored.

I no longer wants to keep my citizenship because I don't think Im getting anything out of it really, anybody want a swap?

Herr-Berbunch · 09-22-10, 02:14 AM

As a visitor for several weeks I loved Singapore, but then I didn't get roped up in the machinations and politics, I just went to work every day and then down to either Clarke or Boat Quay for the night

. I don't think you'd want to particularly be British though.

Herr-Berbunch · 09-22-10, 10:07 AM

I have one stick of :

KVR400X64C3A/256 / Kingston ValueRAM - Memory - 256 MB - DIMM 184-PIN - DDR - 400 MHz / PC3200

If that is of use to anyone UK or Europe (any further and I expect a nice donation to Onkel Neal)

Any takers?

antikristuseke · 09-22-10, 02:09 PM

I have two seagate IDE hard drivves, a 120gb and 80gb one, both in exellent condition. Allso have a non functional MSI K8n-SLI Platinum s939 motherboard, the processor power circuit on that one is gone, but may work if some of the components are replaced.

Allso have a fully functional Slot 1 pentium II 266mhz processor

Edit: Someone showed interest in the HDD's, but sadly they turned out to be in less than full working order.

Herr-Berbunch · 10-06-10, 07:58 AM

Hello folks, any of you subsimmers want a graphics card? PNY GeForce 7300 GT 512MB AGP.
