I've been waiting on this for a LOOOOOOOONG time.  Can't wait to get it installed.

Had the Craigslist deal of the century for me regarding computers

My uncles hard drive was starting to fail, so I swapped over his failing hard drive to another to get him by and started looking for a replacement as his CPU benchmark is only 1800 (a decent $200 computer nowadays benches at around 2000).  Couldn't find anything local, so looked out of state for the heck of it.  Found a listing that seriously looked like a scam, and almost didn't reach out to the guy...

My PC's current benchmark


Mom's PC's current benchmark


He had multiple i5 PC's for $50 each.  Grabbed 5x and a laptop (i3) for $300





Dell Optiplex 3010 (1x)


Dell Optiplex 3040 (4x)


The i3 laptop benches at 3000, nothing too terrible, but hey, christmas gift for my sister :D


PC Replacements - 1x for my uncle, 1x for my mom, 1x for me
Possible MAME machines - 2x lol

Can't wait to add SSD's to these and get them set up!  Already have a 480GB SSD in my pc and a 240GB SSD in moms.  Just gotta do some cleaning :)

Not bad seeing the 70 mile one way drive =)  $35ish in gas

Very Nice Haul. Just remember Dell uses super cheap peal and stick thermal grease.
