How much did I oversell this?

[PCBudgetSolutions]

Rly? Last light only requires an 8800gt and a dual core of which a gtx 650 ti is quite a bit stronger.

[RicebowlDavid]

for $500 this rig isnt that bad, tho i'd rather have a hybrid drive than a 60 gb ssd

[naca1227]

The only part I think you overselled was the 650ti, it is definitely still capable at what it does but I think it's running out of life

[Lyons]

Very oversold....

8800gt, would be at lowest setting and you would probably be getting 30fps with it.  Minimum requirements for games are well..minimums which usually means running games at lowest setting on a sub standard resolution with crap framerates. 

I would look more at the recommended requirements which are a GTX 580 or 660Ti. http://www.geforce.com/games-applications/pc-games/metro-last-light/system-requirements

Recommended does not mean max settings 60fps, more like med-high ~50 fps.

To tell you the truth I would not feel good about how you are hyping up your system because it would make me feel like I was cheating people out of money. But I guess that just depends on who you are and how you want to make money.

Its a difficult market. You tell the truth, you lose your butt and get less than market value. You have to compete with others who are selling 4gb gddr3 as better than titans. So you have to compete to sell as its an aggressive market. If someone has a choice between this pc and a pc with an fx-4100 + gt 630 4gvb that claims it maxes metro last light, they aren't gonna buy mine. But I never specified settings, just said it will play any game in hd 1920x1080 which it will do no issue.

Not to burst your bubble, but this Alienware listing is right under yours which has better specs, and is going for $600. The 256gb SSD & 3770 pretty much already pays for the $100 difference :x

I also wouldn't say "Seller Refurbished", instead, try "Seller Upgraded". Could just be me, but "refurbished" in computer talk usually means it was previously defective in a way.

[Samdb]

$6000 for 7.9? I payed $1400

 

[PCBudgetSolutions]

The alienware for 600 has a core i3 a gt 640 and no ssd. You need to upgrade/add those on. But if you're talking about used on eBay oh didn't know. Does it had a better gpu? Is it buy it now? However from a gaming standpoint the i3-3220 will probably beat the i7-920. My pc has all 7.9 and 7.8 on the cpu and I spent 1500. To get 7.9 on the cpu I think you need a i7-3930k. Again slightly oversold lol.

[PCBudgetSolutions]

I found that Alienware, that PC will go for near a grand most likely.  I am reffering to brand new X51's have garbage specs unless you drop stupid money on them.  But again I am looking for 500, they will sell for 900, because it's used.  As for Seller refurbished, I don't have a choice as my options are:

New

New (Other)

Used

Manuf Refurbished

Seller Refurbished

For Parts Not Working

Wow it's up to 305 this early!!

[PCBudgetSolutions]

Wow, It's up to 455 dollars, I am officially happy as I have:

101 (bought from friend)

104 (video card)

28 (hard drive)

40 (SSD)

15 (heat sink)

25 (case)

 

I have 313 in it.  Which means I am making money now xD.  However I already had the SSD drive so not sure if I should include that.

[PCBudgetSolutions]

They removed my auction due to "Copy write" reasons...????

[skljom]

'we need this fans to keep it not overheating on gaming' uses stock cooler :D

[PCBudgetSolutions]

Well, apparently pre-installing and activating windows is not allowed.  I purchase licenses from windows all the time for pretty cheap. I don't get the CD's because a license is 25 dollars, CD is 90.  So I cannot sell my PC's with a CD because I only have a few and the license won't match the COA.  I tried explaining it to them, but they still took it down.

[IronSoldier]

i think you should change the tone of voice because maybe its just me but as soon as i hear that salesman voice i run for the hills

also you should state that the windows experiance index only goes up to 7.9 not 10 as most would assume

Those

Tidy the cables. Then maybe have a nicer background/location. When it is in your living or somewhere it always seem a bit....meh :P

[PCBudgetSolutions]

Auction was taken down...

make sure the PC is neat and take plenty of pics with a blank background, i just put a red piece of fabric on my kitchen on my kitchen table then pinned it to the wall, rather than putting a video of the PC itself, get FRAPS and do some game play recordings, the issue you have is your competing in a market where other people are chatting crap (i have seen the so called "gaming PC's" on ebay that you mentioned). The other issue is that people who understand the specs enough to know what the PC is capable of would probs build there own so in your add focus less on the parts and just say what it is capable of and add the vids for people to see it in action then put the specs rite at the bottom.

Also it always helps to add something to make it stand anything from a L.E.D fan controller to the cheapest of cheap 120mm water coolers. 

 

Just my 2 cents as they say.

It was selling for good money then eBay removed it saying copy write infringement...  Also If I do videos of the performance and they don't get the same performance for whatever reason, it's considered fraudulent practices.  You can give them rough estimates but exact estimates can lead you into trouble.

[EricX2]

I'm confused why it was taken down. Were they saying it was not a legal copy of Windows because there is no CD/DVD? As long as you put a valid key on the system you can include a burnt disc. Just call it an OEM factory restore disc, it doesn't need to be a MS printed disc.

well if your running it on 1920x1080 and show the settings in the vid then there is nothing they can say.

I finally got through to someone with a brain on eBay.  I include Windows 7 in my title, but no actual disk.  She said when you post it, take that out and you can list the software installed on it.
