What would I do with $500 virtual money~~

If I were given a $500 to spend online, I would spend it on computer parts, to upgrade my own computer at http://forums.vr-zone.com/. This is a place where you buy all the first or second hand computer parts at prices lower than what you will find in the store! Although sometimes it is risky to buy second hand items, this website is protected in a way that if faulty items were sold, it will be refunded by the seller themselves.

Firstly, I will get my hands on a the most important part, the motherboard. Since I am a gamer, I will need a good motherboard. I will get a Asus Striker 2 Formula motherboard.

Usual Price: $250
Forum price: $120










Secondly, I would get a Central Processing Unit (CPU). It, same as the motherboard, is a key component to having a good computer. For that, I will get a Quad Processor Q9500. It is one of the best processors in the market which is built for gaming. 

Usual Price: $200
Forum price: $100










Thirdly, I would get a Graphic Card. As a gamer I will need a graphic card that can support all the games I am playing. Therefore, I would get a GeForce GTX 560.

Usual Price: $300
Forum price: $180










Lastly, with the remaining $100, I would get a Hard Disk Drive (HDD) . A 1 Terabyte (TB) HDD should be more than sufficient  for my usage. I would buy a 1 TB Western Digital Green HDD,

Usual Price: $170
Forum Price: $100











This is how I will spent my money if I were to be given a $500 virtual money. All the items sold in the forum is well described. Even the second hand items will be described about how long it has been used and how long will the warranty last, if any.

About me

Hello there!
My name is Muhammad Syahmi bin Rahmat. You can just call me Syahmi. I am from Temasek Polytechnic Applied Science School majoring in Diploma in Chemical Engineering.

I am an outgoing, friendly person. I am always looking for an adventure to pump up my adrenaline level.

During my free time I like to play video games, go out with friends or just relax at home. Some of the games I play is DOTA, Portal 2, Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Assassin's Creed.

Some of my favourite bands are Linkin Park, Avenged Sevenfold and Green Day. Their songs are not only nice to listen to but also hold key meanings in their words.

My favourite internet site would be 9gag.com. The website has hilarious posts made by people from all around the world. It never fail to make me laugh.



One of my skills that I am proud of is my technical computer skills. Recently I made my own Personal Computer (PC) from scratch. This is beneficial to the user as the user can choose what specifications the user wants to fit his or her needs.
