Hi guys (not sure if correct sub-forum)

 

 

I was thinking earlier about if I ever sold my PC (highly doubt it;d ever happen), and if so how much should I sell it for. So would someone be able to give me a rough estimated value?

 

 

  • Intel Core i5 3570K (around a year old?)
  • ASUS P8Z77-V LX (around a year old?)
  • Cooler Master HAF X (purchased November 2013)
  • Corsair H60 (older model, purchased around 2011-2012)
  • 2x Cooler Master MegaFlow 200mm fans (purchased September 2013)
  • 2x 120mm Arctic Cooling fans, mounted in push-pull config for my H60  (purchased September 2014)
  • 8GB (2x 2GB) Corsair Vengence RAM 1600MHz (purchased September 2013)
  • EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 SC ACX cooler 2GB GDDR5 (purchased September 2014)
  • Pioneer internal blu-ray drive (DVD-RW) (purchased December 2014)
  • Crucial MX100 256GB SATA III SSD (purchased September 2014)
  • 1TB Western Digital Blue SATA III HDD (purchased December 2013)
  • 1TB Western Digital Green SATA II HDD (over 2+ years old)
  • 600W Corsair 600M PSU (less than 3 years old?)

 

I think that is everything. If I've missed anything out, please let me know. Oh, also I would sell without an OS, for security/privacy reasons.

 

 

 

Cheers

- Dan

£800-900

 

But that's just off the top of my head.

 

Uhm hell no for that money you can buy a much better PC no offense to the OP but it was used so the parts are not new. Therefore it shouldn't nearly be the retail price of a new good gaming PC.

what currency this is also depending as parts in US are cheaper then in Europe. 

 

I would say ~600-650 Euro's, but hey that is my opinion maybe you can sell it for more to a dumwit.

Probably around what Tim said. Also, hi again. @ the hard drive / privacy thing, wipe it with Darik's Boot and Nuke. You can recover files if you just use a simple format.

I'll take that info with a grain of salt, just to get an idea. I'm not sure how to value it really, like if I should based on whats inside it, how old it is, how X performs in Y, etc etc.

Maybe I was a bit too harsh but for 700-800 euro you can get a low intel CPU with a GTX970 or a decent i5 with the same GPU. You have a good i5 and the 770 is still a very good card. But still parts are not new of the shelf so you can't expect to let people pay the top price and sorry for 800-900 POUNDS you can get a much stronger build, this is not meant as hate but only someone with no knowledge would play this for it. You can always ask more and then see what people do if they start to negotiate they know their stuff and you have a bottom price around 650-700 and if not then you get a good price for your build, if you want to sell it :).

You forget it has a 256GB SSD and 2 1TB Drives. Also the case is £120 new so that's a lot too.

 

I probably over compensated because I didn't bother looking at how old all the parts were but not a lot of people on the internet post how old each part is.
