im trying to sell my current pc for $800 but i figure there will be haggling so here is my current build http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/TemporaryWishList.aspx?BundleExist=N&ChangeQty=0 my questions are can i swap out anything for cheaper parts keeping the e8400 and gtx 260, i would like an asus mobo, but my main question should i stick with the 650 corsair psu or go with a lower wattage one? im thinking if i get the 650 i wont have to upgrade it later if i upgrade the vidoe card and cpu in a year or two but by then prices will have dropped or who knows acutally if they discontinue the lga775 proccessor. dont need an os or monitor keyboard or mouse. can also get a smaller hd cuz i can burn what i download to save hd space

Your wish list looks good,but i think you better rethink your asking price for that current system.You'll be lucky to get 400 for that setup.

It works for you because it brings you to the wishlist page, which then reads the information stored in your temporary internet folder to see whats on your wish list, when I go to that page I see my wish list, and when McGyver goes to that page he sees his wish list to build his computer (basically paper clips and tube socks)
