Computer... Again.

Post by Grimes [3rd ID] »

Anyway... my dad 'finally' said yes for a new computer, and we're ordering it on the 25th after school so he can put it on next month's bill. Problem is the one I wanted, the Infinity 7515 ($850) turned out to be Open Box on Newegg, and I don't feel like risking it. So now I'm comparing the Infinity 7511 and 7516. I would go with the 16, but the specs ain't showing a mobo. <cries> What kind of computer doesn't have a motherboard!? But yeah... anyone know for sure?

Thanks!

A computer without a motherboard is not a computer at all, its a collection of parts which serve no purpose until combined with a suitable motherboard. So if they are selling them as computers, I would assume that includes the motherboard..... but then again, some companies are a bit wacky, dunno what the reputation of this 'newegg' thing is like, but that's probably a good indicator as to the quality of the product.


EDIT: Oh, and looking at the specs, I would guess they both have the same motherboard, since almost everything else is the same.

THATS what I wanted to know and hear! :D Also, Newegg's global rep and me personally is pretty good, I've gotten a couple items from them and have yet to have any problems. Thanks for the reply!
