Budget (including currency): £2500 -ish Country: UK Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: New triple A titles etc Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Aiming to use the system for high end gaming at 1440p, but trying to kind of future proof for 4k, im currently on an old alienware system (yeah I know), with an EVGA 1070 so, this would be quite a leap up I think Case: Corsair 4000D CPU: I9-11900K (Free upgrade from i7-1100KF) CPU Cooler: MSI Coreliquid 240R Motherboard: MSI MAG Z590 Tomahawk RAM: 16GB of Corsair DDR4/3600mhz GPU: MSI 3080 PSU: MSI MPG A850GF (850W) Storage: Samsung 970 EVO 1TB M.2 (Plus older hard drives + 500GB SSD from existing rig) Any general feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, also am I right in thinking that if I got 4x Cooler Master MF120 ARGB case fans, I could hook them up to the Motherboard without needing any other kit? Thanks guys!

Budget (including currency): USD $500 Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Multiplayer Gaming, Recording, Streaming, and Video Editing Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): Looking for a small form factor to midsize case for future upgradability. I would like to play at 1080p and 60fps or higher. Hello all. Five years ago (March 29, 2015), I purchased a pre-built Alienware Area 51 R2 Desktop for ~$2,000, and I am interested in selling it. I understand that the computer has obviously lost its initial value, but I would like to make as much profit out of my machine as possible, while being reasonable. Honestly, I'd be happy if I could sell the desktop anywhere from $1,200 - $1500. Based off of the specs (Sorry if I haven't listed them properly or have left out any), does anyone mind giving me an appraisal for what my PC could sell for if I decide to sell it? I also understand that it depends on the market, location, etc, but I'd like to know if my price is fair given the system's components. Alienware Area 51-R2 Specifications Central Processing Unit - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5820K CPU @ 3.30GHz, 3301 Mhz, 6 Core(s), 12 Logical Processor(s) Motherboard - Alienware (Manufacturer), OXJKKD (Product), .5D3X842.CN697024BH0395. (Serial Number), A01 (Version). Random Access Memory - 8 GB Graphics Processing Unit - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980 Power Supply Unit - Dell Model D850EF-00 Reference Number: DPS-850AB-2 A (Max Power is 850W) The PSU is 80 Plus Storage - Model TOSHIBA DT01ACA200 (1.82 TB) I've benchmarked 3 different games today (Outlast, Resident Evil 2, and Dead by Daylight), and have gotten either a solid 60 fps or over on high settings. This is my first time selling a computer, so I'm not really sure what I need to know to tell the potential buyer, which is why I'm here. I'm selling this system so that I can build another one that (hopefully) performs the same, but at a significantly cheaper price. Thanks for your help guys.

Budget (including currency): USD Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Primarily this is my Warzone machine and light Blender use Other details: Selling my main rig. Going to be transferring to a non-rgb gaming environment. She games good enough RGB everything lol. Good old fashioned Active Air Cooling! Cougar Gemini T Pro Case, Front Panel 2x USB 3.0 & 1x USB C, Asus Prime B450m-a Mobo, Ryzen 7 3700x, Dual Fan Dark Rock Pro 4, XFX RX5700XT, CORSAIR 750w Modular PSU, 48gb ddr4 dram (it's mismatched that's why it's running at 1066 but it's 2x16gb geil potenza evo 3000 pc4 & 1x8gb vulcan 3000 pc4 and a generic 1x8gb 2133 pc4 which is causing overall slower speeds but suffice to say 48gb at that speed is still sufficient), Noctua Industrial exhaust in the back, 7 Thermaltake RGB fans (2 fan controllers), RGB strips and RGB GPU bracket synced to Asus Aura Sync (RGB fans synced to Thermaltake software). I baby this CPU but she's a beast. Under load the CPU never hits above 60c while I'm averaging 120+ FPS on Warzone or turn off all the lights and utilize it as a workstation (8core 16thread) I'll include all the storage too. Those are the specs. What is a reasonable asking price for this machine and my labor?

Hello everyone! I lost my original account but i been here for awhile, sadface. Anyway, recently some life issues have started nipping away at me, and a friend and i decided to pool our resources. We plan on moving, sharing an apartment, and of course getting jobs, but we want to do streaming as well, hopefully one day as a full-time job. Currently we plan to dedicate 2-4 full days depending on our money situation to streaming, and will be streaming everything from simple 2D titles such as Stardew Valley and Starbound, all the way up to VR titles like Beat Saber, A Township Tale, and PavlovVR. Firstly, i'm going to be selling my current rig as it just cant keep up with the demands of streaming or even 1080p recording at a steady framerate. But it handles everything else like a king as far asi'm concerned and has really astounded me every day i play. I checked the value on PCPartPicker and got an estimate of $778.84, with several parts not included as i didnt manually input pricing. I was wondering if anyone would have an estimate of what i could sell for; again, the estimate is without all parts valued, but i was hoping to meet my goal of ~$800: i7-4770k OC @ 4.3GHz Gigabyte GTX 1070 FE OC +120/+180 Ballistix Sport 1600MHz DDR3 RAM 4x8 OC @ 2000MHz Gigabyte Z97-HD3 v2 Blanking on brand of PSU, but 500w Bronze certified Currently planning on keeping drives but may put a 250GB SSD into it to sell with Windows not included Noctua NH-D15 CPU Cooler third-party case, no label on it, average wear USB 2.0 4-port expansion card Will include Razer Deathadder and Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2013 and yes, i plan on shipping it with the stable overclocks unless buyer asks for otherwise And i plan on upgrading to a bit of a costly system that my current estimate puts at around $1600-$1800 depending where i buy: i7-9700k Asus RTX 2080 O8G Dual-Fan OC Edition Corsair Vengeance DDR4 3200MHz C16 RGB Pro 2x16 Gigabyte Z370 AORUS Ultra Gaming Corsair CX Series 550 Watt 80 Plus Bronze Certified Modular PSU Like i said, keeping drives; but adding ADATA SU800 512GB M.2 2280 drive for boot and important data I have my own copy of Windows 7 thats already been upgraded for Win10 upgrade Noctua NH-U12S 120mm CPU cooler Rosewill Gaming ATX Full Tower Thor V2 White/Black ASUS Xonar AE B077DGQFTF for my Razer Tiamat 7.1 V2 headset (NOTE: I dont know much about sound cards, hugely welcome to suggestions on this one!) Will also be buying Razer Deathadder Elite and Razer Ornata Chroma Like i said, we're going to do streaming and probably recording as well for youtube uploads, on top of the regular and VR gaming, and may be doing it for extended periods of time. So the questions i have are; at an estimate, what do you guys think i could sell my old rig for, and do you think this new rig is okay and worth the money, or am i messing up somewhere along the way? Thank you all so much for the advice on this one, its really appreciated!

Decided to try to get rid of my system from a few years ago, but I'm not sure how much to ask for it. Its a FX6300/750ti/8gb ram/500gb hdd build in a n200 case. It's being sold locally only, to someone who most likely isn't a techie. Some numbers that I wrote down a few weeks ago show maybe $250-$300, but let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

Hello fellow users, Can you be so kindly as to appraise my computer. It has a brand new case and hard drive (hasn't been fitted yet) 1TB Seagate Barracuda HDD Specifications are listed in one of the pictures. Due to a low size file upload here is a link to my Google Drive where the images are listed. Link: https://goo.gl/YVkvQz Thanks for your appreciation.

PC BUILD! I plan on using this build as a gaming machine and some what recording/editing/rendering machine, about 70% gaming, 30% recording/editing/rendering. Part explanations
