I might be able to build my computer after all so...

 

What would you do with $1,500 in parts to build a PC including monitor, mouse and keyboard?

short blockbuster stocks since their bid is at 22 cents, and its going to be dropping even more in the next few weeks... well, er, i take that back, it can only drop 22 cents.

the possibilty to make some extra $

 

for example, if we estimate your best returns:

 

1500 dollars at 22 cents a share = about 6800 shares, maximum low risk scenario

so if you short 6800 shares, and sell it, you make 1500 dollars

however, you have to return the shares you borrowed to short, so lets say blockbuster drops 5 cents to 17 cents a share, 6800 x 17 cents = about 1150 dollars you return to repurchase

so, hypothetically speaking, just 1 day, you can make 350 dollars :)

making you net profit, 1850 dollars !!

 

of course, if blockbuster all of a sudden has a miraculos revival in business, then ur screwed

 

if you're willing to be a little bit more risky and gamble for more money, try bp stocks :)

1156 mobo and i7 9** wont work...

you need 1366 mobo for that....the PT6 delux is prolly the best bang for the bucks

 

Id get the CB 640 because it has the best performance

 

Id get mx2 paste upon shadows advice it is not conductive and has some of the best results...

 

tbh lighted keyboards are awesome to play in the dark... I dont like flashy things but I sure dont regret my G11.. its cousin the G110 seems very nice

 

the mouse you picked sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G5 or G500 or G9 if logitech.. I dont know about the other brands

 

if you get the antec 300 make sure you buy fans or that it is the version that comes with them...

If it were me I think it buy it w/o and choose my own...
