Well first you should get all your box's back if i was you
you can check out you hardware ID's through your system tools
but it's also good to check and open up the case, it should say it actually on the card what model etc it is...
But i still never trust a computer store even if they give u something right it's extremely old stock, i know because my auntys and cousins bought comps and i opened it up and i knew the hdd or the gfx was a old batch it was soo obvious
gay gay people, that's how they clean their redundant and old stock, by tricking you people, so to conclude don't trust these comp stores at all!! especially azns lol

Before you buy it they'd probably have a good idea whether you know a lot about computers.
If my parents went and bought a computer from a dodgey store and they get ripped off they wouldn't have a clue.

Well you'd probably want to know a fair bit of what you want to get instead of teling the dealer "I want the best and chepest one you got".
That leaves plenty of room for scams.
Would be best to list the things you want.

Most things should be compatible with each other.
The dealer would proabably know if its not.
Where do you plan to buy it from?

MSY is pretty good except if you looking for quality memory (their Kingston's are VALUEram, speakers (all shit even most expensive), monitors (shit LCD's), case (shit).
MSY have their Pentium 4 made in Costa Rica, which is inferior to overclock compare to Malaysia.
try to buy those things from elsewhere.

256MB PC3200 DDR400(Hyundai)HOT

Why not? A decent dealer will tell you when they plan on putting it together and offer to let you watch.Originally posted by Winston
don't think they'll do that
