    660Tis, 670s and 680s all can be bought in EBay for less then $150. ( 660Tis I see going for about $60-$70 ) Sandy .bridge i5s and mobos $120ish so let's say about $240. Storage $30 , $270. Could find a solid case for $30, $300 ram $25 $325. Honestly... $325 ( depends on the GPU ) $325-$375 can't go wrong. A after market cooler could be $30 $405 and a PSU find a reliable one for $50 new or used. $455 and the $45 is to leave room for price error.
    Bam.

    I recently traded a copy of Windows for some old parts from a guy doing a new build.
     
    Got a FX-4100, Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P, 4GB Corsair DDR3, XFX Radeon HD 6770 and a 600W PSU. So I picked up a new cheap DIY case, WD Blue 1TB HDD, and OS and got myself a decent red rig to mess with (for a total of $115).

    Also I know some of them say Providence and some say Boston and the reason is the city I live in Woonsocket, is directly between the two

    Hey guys, so I was inspired by Scrapyards Wars to onto my local Craigslist and see what type of PC I could build with $500 (USD) and needless to say I'm pretty impressed. Go ahead and drop your builds down below

    people try to sell 9800 GTX's for $200. not even joking. pretty much every other GPU on it is similarly overpriced.

    If both PCs are on the same network (home), why don't you just transfer over ethernet/wifi ?
     
    And yes, too much. Only do 1 transfer at a time on the usb drive. Otherwise it will try to do both at the same time, reducing the speed further.

    sometimes what I find works best ..especially when a phone has been messed with alot is to flash the stock rom on the device
    then flash the new one

    sometimes you need to flash back to stock to get the phone to be proper
    I have to do that sometimes with my phones

    It doesn't matter because the optical will never saturate a sata lane. Plug it into the closest or most convenient port
