>he paid for something they were throwing away

Why were they throwing it away if they valued it at $400?

Apparently they bought for $900 and I wasn't allowed to "just take it"

>They bought that for $900

They got scammed.

You literally paid for garbage

>>51568327

They had for 2 years

I'm not really surprised at that particular part, hell my Itanic server was still worth around $1k when I nabbed it.

>>51568214
Why would you pay so high for a crap pc?

>>51568350
You own an Itanic? What do you do with it? Do they even still make those? Even Debian dropped support for IA-64 by now.

>>51568273
So, you're using the word apparently in a sentence about something you paid $400 for.

I'll Retail Price Everything

Intel Pentium: $90
MSI Motherboard: $87
Ballistix Ram: $47
Western Digital 1Tb HDD: $50
Western Digital 500GB HDD: $45
Diablotek Powersupply 500W: $40
Antec Case: $60

Windows 8 $99

Total = $518

Yep they still make 'em. HP has Intel and enterprise software vendors by the balls for at least a couple more years. I don't do much with mine though, it eats a ton of power and is full of proprietary IBM tech that makes it even harder to find operating systems that run on it, some day when I have the space, power and a nice rack worthy of fitting it in I'll put it to work, I mostly just wanted it as an example for my personal collection.

Windows is $0 bro

Shekels were wasted. You could have gotten a high-end graphics card or cpu for that money, but the stuff you bought is pretty much trash.

Not a good deal. g3258 new 60 $, MB new 75$ after rebate, WD 1 T 52$ new, WD 500 G 45$ new, etc. etc. you should have payed much less. Should compare to actual market prices before buying used.

OP i have the exact same case, it's awful.
get a refund asap, cable management just doesnt exist with this.
