This (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=27-131-327&depa=1) is what I'm saving my pennies for. :D

[sharder8]

Mine's a short list this year! :D

AMD AthlonXP 3200+ Barton (400 FSB) retail box with 2 - 512MB PC3200 DDR RAM. :P

I'll have ta' wait until I get my check from my Uncle's inheritance, so that won't be until sometime in late Jan. to Mar. 2005. :rolleyes:

But, it's still on my Christmas wish list for this year. :P

Harder

[dannychuckle]

I'd like a blonde, brunette or redhead - I'm not fussy :D

or an XP 2400/2600 Mobile or a Sempron 3000... :)

thanks

[ThRoNkA]

I want my Felicia to be happy.. i wouldnt mind putting an extra 128mb in her PC.

[robin801]

i would like to upgrade my current system.(amd athlon 1800 with fx5200 video card).

robin

[poopeyhed2]

Athlon 64 3500+ 90 nm core ;)

Working on buying that in the near future.

[mickwish]

Well, I want a pair of SMP capable PIII Tualatin's, please. Nothing fancy.... a pair of PIII-S 1.4GHz Tualatin 's with 512kb cache would do, thanks. :bunny:

They are rare as hen's teeth, so my Tualatin duallie board is going to waste with a single CPU, I'm afraid.... :(

Am just getting ready to set up my AMD duallie with dual XP 2000+'s modded to be MP 2000+'s :D

Merry Christmas everyone - I hope Santa brings ya what you really need!! :cool:

Cheers
Mick

[Paul W]

A big honking hardrive.

[Justoverbroke]

:rofl2: @ halfwatt

[MDS]

micro ATX socket A mobo(so I can finally put that 1gig duron to use in that micro ATX case sitting out in the garage) or even a micro ATX mobo with a better cpu
20gig hard drive
17" lcd monitor for my main rig

BTW thanks for all the fun with these contest and I hope everyone has a great holiday

[pain_inbutt]

I'll take one of these:D
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=13-151-127&depa=0

and a few extra components to go with it:)


Pretty much any componets so i could start on building another computer of at least 2 gigs:)

Maybe a stick of corsair 512 pc 3200 2.5 cl value ram to match the other 512 i have in here to run in dual channel then:)

lol, you'll get one of them right after kev does. He aready showed me them he wants 2...........:bunny:

[Kevschick]

MDS Kev said he thinks he's got a brand new MSI motherboard that your CPU will fit. Let him find it and it's yours..............:D

[Shyguy]

Um, lets see?

All upgrades for my main rig!!!

nForce 3 250 based Mobo, doesn't really matter which brand, or whether Socket 754 or 939, or a new nForce 4 SLI Mobo, & a decent Athlon 64 CPU for either, 3000+ or faster.

Thermalright XP-90 HSF, with a 80mm to 120mm adapter & one of these, http://www.coolerguys.com/840556001133.html, or a Coolermaster Aqua-gate Cooling system.

512MB to 2GB DDR400 or faster, not sure which brand, but whatever is good for OCing.

Coolermaster CMStacker Case.

Maybe one of these to power my goodies!!! http://www.xoxide.com/coolmax-cr-550b.html

Definately a new Sound card, either M-Audio 7.1 or an Audigy 2.

If I got one of the non PCI-E mobos, then a 256MB 6800 Ultra. If I got the SLI enabled mobo, then two 6800 Ultra 256MB PCI-E cards. But would settle for the 6800GT's in PCIE & AGP also:D

Um, 4 of these & a RAID card that can support them, http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=100719-1, 2 WD Raptor 36.7GB HD's & a Single 74GB Raptor.

Um, Oh yeah that DVDRW CC is asking for.

And One of these for my very cool gaming rig If I ever actually got all this stuff, http://www.spartantech.com/product.asp?PID=VIVP2290B&m1=pg

Oh one of those new Verizon Fiber optic Broadband connections directly to the house, the $200 30Mb Packages prepaid for at least 2 years of service!!!:D

Also a Copy of Half-Life 2, Farcry, Need For Speed Underground 2, & a ton of cool gaming accessories, controllers, & other cool stuff!!!

Actually I'd be happy with just about anything on the list above!!!:D

but would also like to have all my debts paid off in full too, if the above is asking a bit much!:D

ditto!

and wrapped in a big bow, please. :bunny:

[poopeyhed2]

Nah, not in a bow, more like her pop out of one of those giant fake cakes like in the movie Under Siege :D ;) :P

[PresterJohn]

well, if you can't come thru on the delectable female...how's about a nice 4x/8x agp dual head card. i need one for my p4 mobo. ;)

poopey, all i need is a bow...nothing else on her but the bow. :)

[Roadkill]

A good overclockable mobo with an Athlon XP moble processor, or maybe a pair of LCD monitors. :)

[Carl D]

i just want two MP cpus,

a AMD FX-(newest one) and a Nforce 4 board would be nice.

[roadtech]

Would this make a nice prize for this week.

http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-141-158&depa=1

or

[sharder8]

Either one would make someone a great Christmas gift Kev! :D

Harder

[stant093]

i just want a college degree, ill even give my pc to who ever grants me a scholarship.

other than that, i have no more need for anything material, its all just crap in the way of me going to school.

[brian0555]

i want to build a DVR for christmas.. however, the checkbook says something like a mousepad :D

Also, maybe a wireless router.. & a couple wireless cards

Have to wait until tax time (feb '05) until I could build a complete system..

Roadtech:: those both look great! :)

[Shyguy]

PQI RAM is nice, but I think the Mobo/CPU combo would be better, as its got onbaord sound & video, all you'd need is to add some RAM & a HD & you have a complete system (minus the case, PSU, Optical drive, etc of course).:D

But either would be a great gift.

I got a Networking (AAS) last May and this month, I'm graduating with Web Design (AAS), Gen Tech (AAS), Networking (CoP), Web Design (CoP). 5 Degrees in one year. :D
I might not be able to grant you a scholarship - but I could probably tell you how to get a grant or a scholarship - or both :D.

[ThRoNkA]

I will be willing to donate some money to you for college after my spring semester. Its small but will get you college text book.
All I ask is you provide me with a receipt on how you used it..

[stant093]

MIT is what im looking at but dont have the $$ to even start.
About two weeks ago i sent out an app the www.stcc.com seeing as i have family there and could stay with them. but am still waiting :(

What are some good tech schools in the n.e. area?

Im looking for a degree in network securities, as i have found out a PC Tech is just not where the $$ is....


Thanks for the offer Andy, but i wouldnt be able to accept any donations from ya, after all were both trying to get ahead here ;) (besides i talked stuff over with my mother a few days ago, shell lend me the $$ for books, for this spring semester at Community College of Vermont, so im all set)

[jasong]

I want a dvd-recorder that uses a better standard than the normal one(possibly DivX). I would also like tracking software that helps me keep track of my recordings.

Mine's quite simple, really,

I'd like a cure for all forms of Cancer, and HIV/AIDS!
I'd like Peace between all, in the world!
I'd like an end to poverty and starvation!

Failing that, I'd just like everyone to be happy and get along!

:D
