Update 09/16/06: Meeting today with mcg was conducted without a hitch. I returned mcg's equipment and he refunded my money. MODS, please lock this thread. Thanks.

Update: I have been contacted by mcg and the details for our meeting on Saturday have been finalized. I am hoping to secure a deal for a skt78 motherboard that supports 400MHz FSB soon, so that the CPU he sold me can be tested. I will consider compatible mATX boards if a deal can be done in time. LMK if you have anything for sale.

I am postponing my search for a motherboard until I get contact from mcg with the final details for our meeting Saturday. He said that he would choose a location to meet with me by today, but I haven't heard back from him yet. I'll update the thread as things progress. It's late and I have to go to bed now.

I need a P4 skt478 motherboard again. The MSI 845 Ultra motherboard that mcg sold me is DOA. We are currently making arrangements for a return of his equipment. I no longer need a HS&Fan as I completed a deal with gcw23 last night.

RAM - at least 256MB *pending*
CPU - *still untested**purchased* P4 1.8GHz Northwood CPU from mcg
Mobo - I need a P4 skt478 motherboard *MSI 845 Ultra is DOA**purchased* MSI 845 Ultra socket478 motherboard from mcg
HDD - *purchased* 40GB Maxtor HDD and 20.5GB Quantum HDD from slaman

Please bare in mind that a new stick of 256MB DDR400 is $25 and a 512MB stick of DDR400 is $50 at CC.

I have a pending deal for an Athlon64 Mobile 3400+ CPU. :cheesygri

So I'm now looking for a socket754 ATX motherboard as well as DDR RAM and a HDD. Let me know what you have and what you are asking for it. Please bare in mind that a new Asus AS-K8U-X skt754 ATX mobo is $57 @ ComputerLink Systems (http://www.computerlinksystems.com/search5.php?cat=NC-%20MB-&title=Motherboards). Thanks

Looks like the deal for the mobile 3400+ didn't pan out. :( Oh well. I have a pending deal for a P4 CPU and matching motherboard. :cheesygri

HDDs tested and feedback left for slaman. :)

I have purchased a P4 1.8GHz Northwood CPU and a MSI 845 Ultra socket478 motherboard from mcg. I just need to test them out now. :cheesygri

I'm still looking for RAM and may consider purchasing a skt478 HS&Fan to go along with the P4 CPU that I just bought. Please bare in mind that a new stick of 256MB DDR400 is $25 and a 512MB stick of DDR400 is $50 at CC.

Items bought from gcw23 last night still need to be tested. :)

Anyone selling a P4 skt478 motherboard, please PM me. Thanks.

Hey,

Sorry about the DOA mobo. The CPU is fine, that I am certain for sure. Sorting the mobo issue as of right now.

mcg still hasn't decided on the final details of our meeting and Saturday is quickly approaching. I am postponing my search for a motherboard until I get contact from mcg with the final details for our meeting Saturday. He said that he would choose a location to meet with me by today, but I haven't heard back from him yet. I'll update the thread as things progress. It's late and I have to go to bed now.
