    How can I improve my computer

    Seems like a pretty good computer to me! Way better than mine.

    What does an "Older Intel Cpu" mean?

    Would also agree that anything core2duo or older is old and any core i series is still fine.

    Who still uses Core 2?

    Crazy to think core 2 cpus are that old. Shoot even the i5-2500k in my rig is over 3 years old. Still rocking strong though.

    [FS][US] Google Nexus 5 16GB Black

    Selling a LG Google Nexus 5. Phone is in great shape, always in a case. Screen is good shape too, no scratches. Comes with box, charger, and all inserts. Its the sprint version but should work with any GSM service (purchased outright from best buy, used with Straight Talk). Only reason I am...

    [WTB][US] Intel Celeron 1155 CPU

    Buying with laptop no OS and installing Linux... headache?

    I would recommend lubuntu, it is a stripped down version of ubuntu and with a better UI. I am a huge fan of ubuntu myself but as others have said I don't like unity. I usually do a minimal command line install of ubuntu and then add lxde for the ui.

    [WTB][US] Intel Celeron 1155 CPU

    Looking to buy a celeron socket 1155 processor. Cores, speed, and sandy vs ivy don't matter. Just the cheaper the better, might also consider a Pentium. Can get a new OEM G1620 on ebay for $40 and retail boxed at $42 + tax on Amazon. So hoping that someone can beat that. Don't need a heatsink...
