Due to the AI revolution, the price of RAM for computers has recently skyrocketed. This includes system RAM and VRAM for video cards. This system is very reasonably priced. Grab it before it's gone.
This ad is for the Intel Core Ultra 5 245K (Series 2 - Unlocked) mATX build. I have several computers up for sale on Craigslist. Please use REF#25-1005 when replying to this ad. I listed this system as NEW as everything is new except for the graphics card.
Shipping is not available. Price is firm. Cash, Paypal or Zelle payments are accepted.
Included in the price is a 30 minute indoctrination to your new PC if desired. I have a clubhouse where I live where we can meet and I can show you all the features and operation.

The MONTECH case features a removable hinged glass door with a magnetic lock. Easy to open and blow out any dust that may accumulate. The side cable panel can be removed by two thumb screws. No tools required. The front panel can also be easily removed to clean the fans when needed. It is magnetic. The top I/O includes two USB 3.0 ports, a USB 2.0 port and a separate headphone/microphone jack. I have a new USB to USB C Adapter, 10Gbps, I will throw in for free for the top I/O if you need it. The rear I/O includes two lightning ports plus 2 USB 2.0, 4 USB 3.1 (5gb/s) and 2 USB 3.2 (10gb/s). There are two magnetic dust filters for the case. One for the top and one on the bottom for the PSU.
The graphics card is refurbished from Newegg.
I think the MSI Forge GK310 Keyboard/Mouse combo is pretty slick. The keyboard cover can be easily removed for cleaning. Here's a link if you want to research more: https://www.msi.com/Gaming-Gear/FORGE-GK310-COMBO-RED-SWITCHES
Fan configuration is set up for positive pressure case airflow. The front 3 are intake, the cooler fans blow towards the rear and the rear is exhaust. You can control fan RGB lighting through software (installed). The GPU RGB can also be controlled through software (installed).
The fans are PWM which means they operate slowly/quietly when the system is not under stress. And they will automatically speed up under heavy CPU loads. But even operating at full speed the system is super quiet.
The system has been tested for thermal throttling and also stress tested. No thermal throttling occurred and the stress test passed with no issues.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I will normally respond within a few hours.
