Valuation help

aisle9

I need a second (and third, and fourth, and so on) because my opinion is biased here. I'm going to sell my old X58 rig, the question is which GPU to drop in there. I've already dropped in an SSD and a bigger hard drive. The problem is that I'm extremely biased towards my Quadro FX 3800, which has been in there, and I'm reluctant to give up my SFF 750 Ti unless it's literally the difference between selling it and not selling it. Here are the specs:

 

Xeon X5650

ASUS X58 Sabertooth

12GB DDR3-1333 (3x4GB)

120GB SSD

1.5TB HDD

Quadro FX 3800 (on par with Vega 8 ) or EVGA GTX 750 Ti SC

Seasonic M12II Evo 620W

Three-channel 5.25" fan controller w/temps for CPU, VRMs and HDD

Zalman CNPS-9900A LED (massive freaking dual-tower)

Riotoro CR-480 case

 

So here's where things get iffy for me: what would you pay for this system with the Quadro, and what would you pay with the 750 Ti? Would you even buy it with the Quadro? Should I cough up some cash for a better GPU entirely? As always, any help is appreciated. I have my own idea of what it's worth to an end user, but I think I'm overvaluing the Quadro, and possibly even kidding myself if I think it'll sell with that GPU.

I enjoy buying junk and sinking more money than it's worth into it to make it less junk.

1) More valuable with the 750 Ti because people have heard of that

2) I'd pay $250-300, but tbh it's probably more valuable if you part it out

CPU - basically worthless, $5?

Motherboard - $175-225

Storage : Keep for yourself and use elsewhere, drives don't sell

Case, FC, and PSU - Sell together for $50-75
