Eh, not bad. It was probably cached, though you could argue that is good

i7 4790k | MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition | G.Skill Ripjaws X 16 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | 2x Seagate Barracuda 2TB | MSI GTX 970 Twin Frozr V | Fractal Design R4 | EVGA 650W

A gaming PC for your budget: $800 - $1000 - $1500 - $1800 - $2600 - $9001

Is your camera as old as the computer too? jk

Looks pretty fast. The biggest bottleneck I had with older PC's was actually the hard drive speed.

Yah I bet if I put a modern 7200rpm drive or a SSD in there it will be a lot faster

Want to upgrade it to a 3GHZ?

I'd got a AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor core, the reason i'm not using it is that the TDP exceeds my motherboard allowed TDP.

How much would you be selling it for

Probably like 5-10 dollars depending on shipping fees or so...

I'd parting out my 64 X2 rig anyway, so i may have more parts for sale.

Ok I'll think about it
