Quad Core HDMI Blu-ray Computer – CHEAP!
Here are the components for a system I would be proud to build for you. My decisions on component selection were based on my many years of building or supporting literally hundreds of systems. If you build it yourself, please refer to my Jim’s Bare Essentials Software Guide to keep it running safely and smoothly.
What we have here is a $603.94 system that will provide any gadget loving household with many years of blazing service. This system is a good “basis for comparison” computer too. Where else can you get a computer that plugs right into your HD Television and plays Blu-ray movies?! But, not only is it just a cool computer that doubles as a Blu-ray player, it’s a quad core AMD with some of the fastest, yet affordable technology available. Really an awesome system sporting high end components from trusted manufacturers offering great warranties.
See if ANY big box stores or typically known brands can touch the quality, speed, technology, reliability and low cost of the components I have selected below.
-
Features that stand out and you should consider:
- Western Digital 640GB SATA 6.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive
- USB 3.0 and USB 2.0
- HDMI Video out! Plug it into your High Def TV. (D-Sub + DVI output too!)
- 2600MHz Front side bus! Hyper Transport (5200 MT/s) Wow…
- Two PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots (Along with ATI Radeon HD 4290 onboard)
- 8 Channel Realtek ALC892 Audio
- eSata 3Gb/s and IEEE 1394a (Fire Wire) ports!
- Turbo Key II for Easy O.C. – One-Touch Button for Instant Performance Boost (This absolutely rocks!)
- Optical port for on-board digital audio out! (S/PDIF)
- 4GB (2×2) DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Memory! Wow..
- AMD Athlon II X4 630 Propus 2.8GHz Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Processor Wow…
- 500 Watt Power Supply
- Oh Yeah… IT’S A BLU-RAY PLAYER TOO!
When I posted this page, all the components were FREE SHIPPING and no sales tax in most states.
On even more of a budget?
Just drop the Blu-ray Player and get this system for $538.95!!!
You can also cheeze out on the case and save another $20 but, be sure you choose a case that INCLUDES a good power supply.
NOTHING at any big box store can compare to this systems quality, speed, warranty and technology.
That said, a system that sports some of the features sells for around $1500.00 and around $1299.00 on sale.
SO WHAT IS STOPPING YOU from owning a system like this?
Well, many people just do not have the experience to build a system from “scratch”. That is where I come in. I have built HUNDREDS! I will build this system and load all the software necessary to keep it running for many years.
Don’t need quad core? Don’t need 6MB/s transfer rate? Want a “budget” system but, don’t want to cut corners on quality?
I and help. I can build a system FOR ANY BUDGET! Keep in mind though, a $100 difference can quadruple your systems capabilities.
Just Contact Me and I will give you a quote or advice as to what will work best for you. Remember, I also barter!
Hello James, just looked at the Quad Core HDMI Blu-ray computer link here on your website. Looks like an awesome computer!!!! I am thinking about upgrading my current computer and that one looks nice! The computer you built for my son last year is a beast!! He loves playing all his games with no issues (speed, lag, excellent graphics, etc.). He can run Crysis, World of Warcraft and several other games with no problems at all and all of his friends are just overwhelmed at the computer in general. Best of luck and if there is anyone out there considering having James build a computer for you, DO IT!!!
I built one of these using your parts above. I was going to try and see if some other parts might work even better but keep cost about the same but you nailed it. There is now shipping costs on two of the items so you may want to adjust your end price up by about five bucks. THIS SYSTEM SCREAMS. My brother paid twice as much for half the system this is and that was only a month a go. He is pissed. He wanted to return his system he bought at a store but, it has been 34 days and he cant. I would tell anyone to build or have this guy make you one of these. Great system.
I have built six of these now. I really enjoy watching the jaws drop when folks use it for the first time. I built one for a guy who just blew $1200 on a supposed “killer” system. Boy was he pumped when this one blew the doors off of his big box store system via speed, features and my expert system software set up. Lucky for him he was able to return the $1200 system. He took the extra cash and purchased a huge monitor, 4 new tires for his car and sent what was left to one of his credit cards! This system is a no brainer.
