gpu capsule may have exploded can i con. without ECT

A converter box will run about $100-$200......So the 8500 might be the best option......It's better than the Intel graphic's, but it won't do much better on modern games....

Found this on Ebayhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/ZOTAC-GEFORC...item2318611f91

Its about equal to a 4850 and a good bit stronger than the gt8500.....but it's used and also the Ebay factor

much better on modern games

i use a xbox360 for most of my gaming
these Intel graphic's kind of suck lots of glitches when i got a media play open in the background it pops lil glimpse of the player into my browser and ect.
also the flash player on YouTube shows glimpse of my desktop

used and also the Ebay factor

kind of like to not use ebay for some reason don't know why but if it's the only result guess i got 2 for the 1st time plus it will be a few months before i even get it so there might be another that pops up

That 2 TB drive might be the most expensive thing listed

here another 2tb hdd
but this ones not usb
which one is better?

The first drive you listed is a external drive, it can be easily moved to a different computer, simple setup....just plug in the USB cable and go....The main drawback is access to large files will be slow:)

The second drive is a SATA internal drive...it's a bare drive/that usually means no cables, no screws, and sometimes it will require a format before use....It mounts inside the case, and you will need a open SATA port from the motherboard, and a SATA power plug from your power supply....Access to large files is faster, but moving the drive to a different computer is more difficult:)

so there's no difference on lifespan ?
if not i should get the usb

Not really....however a external can possibly be damaged if dropped....but otherwise the life span is about the same....Which to get really depends on your needs:)
