Ok ill prob buy it... guy cant meet till Tuesday


just some things to look at when you get the pc since you said you're new

pins on the cpu, make sure they're not bent, missing, etc

gold pins on connections for ram/gpu

check the insolation on all the wires, make sure it's in good shape, not burnt or striped or anything.



Also, if you do happen to get the comp and it's in good shape and you decide to use it, buy 8gb more ram :D
