What are the parts to the computer? A receipt is wonderful and all... but what are the parts?

You'll need to open the computer up to check that all the parts are what they are supposed to be. You'll also need to boot the computer up and run a couple tests to confirm everything is working properly, the CPU is what it's supposed to be, etc.

The CPU doesn't work on that motherboard. Different CPU socket. You would have to get a CPU that fits that motherboard, aka, 6600K or 6700K

So if he's selling it as a working computer...NO. :)


Spare parts.... good deal.

Like I and others have said...that list you posted is a bunch of nice ass parts...but, the CPU and the motherboard, from the list are not compatible.
