Made this for a friend who is a fan of the Fallout games, i had a computer i was building for the hell of it, and when i quit my job i needed that money back, so he said he'd buy it; then i went crazy and modded it.
Specs/prices:
Intel Pentium dual-core E2180 1.8ghz @ 3.0ghz - $50
2 gigs of kingston ddr2 667 - $27
e-VGA Geforce 9800 gtx KO 512mb - $198
ASUS nvidia 680i sli mobo - $80
400 gig hitachi SATA drive - $40
Noctua Heatsink - $29 (open box)
Samsung 16x dvd/rw - $16
Coolermaster 500w PSU - $58
Cooler Master case - $0 (swiped it from a broken comp i had)
Vista Ultimate 32-bit edition - piratebay (loller!)
comes to $498, yippee a 2 dollar profit of sorts.
extra stuff i paid for but didn't include in the final price:
1 uv laser light box thing
2 uv cathodes
2 sets of green cable sleaving
rust activating paint w/ rust activator and patina sealer
airbrush paint
various spray paints and clear coats
1 paint brush and 1 roller
1 uv green SATA cable
1 Scythe super quiet 120mm fan
6 months of work mixed with procrastination
next mod will be built and sold on ebay, most likely my case with the expanded metal front, and this time i'm thinking a quad-core.
fixed pics i hope
