I bought the new hardware to upgrade my Desktop. Actually it is not an upgrade. It is almost brand new one.
I ordered them online with Ncix.com
Let me show you what I got.
31195 Palit Radeon HD 3870 512MB GDDR3 PCI-E DVI-I HDMI Video Card 1 $109.99 $109.99
24129 Antec Earthwatts 500W Power Supply ATX12V V2.2 Active PFC 80-PLUS 80MM Fan 1 $59.99 $59.99

30574 Gigabyte EP43-DS3L ATX LGA775 P43 FSB 1600 OC 1PCI-E 2PCI DDR2 SATA2 HD Sound GBLAN Motherboard 1 $99.99 $99.99
Subtotal of these five items is $464.75.
And two days later I got one Harddrive $77.27 including tax.
