Selling PC, looking for advice

Go to solution Solved by failblox,

Seems a little bit high IMO. I'd lower it just a tad if I were you but it seems about right. Buyers are likely gonna ask you to lower the price anyways so putting it a bit higher gives you some headroom I guess.

I'd like to get rid of my PC and i was wondering if this price is reasonable:

 

Case : NZXT phantom 240

 

PSU : Corsair 430watt

 

MOBO : ASRock z68 Pro3Gen3 

 

CPU : Xeon e3 1220 v2

 

RAM : 8gb of generic ram

 

GFX card : EVGA GTX 970 sC

 

An optical drive, 1TB HDD and 3 case fans

i'm from the UK so i was thinking £700 which is roughly $1100 bearing in mind it is prebuilt so the price will be a bit more than if you was to buy the parts seperately

People are going to tell you your price is unreasonable regardless of what you price it at, your range sounds about right but you should just sell it for as much as you can get it for. Gradually lower the price if you aren't finding buyers at your first price.

at the moment it is just a thought but that does sound like the best way to start off, thanks :)

I actually couldn't underclock my 5 year old GPU to make it as slow as a next-gen console.
