Is this worth it?

[pokechat8978]

I found a PC (Well, some parts of it anyways) on Kijiji, and the person wants $150 CAD for it.

 

 

Motherboard - eVGA Nvidia 750i 
CPU - Intel C2D E7300 
RAM - 4GB of DDR2 G.Skill Ram 
GPU - 1GB MSI GTX 460 Twin Frozr 
Heatsink - Xigmatek HDT693 

 

 

So is it worth it?

How is the motherboard an NVidia GPU?

It's not a 750ti, I'm assuming that's the chipset.

My friend, back in the day. Even Nvidia made Motherboards.

Nvidia used to make chipsets back in the day dinosaurs roamed the earth

At 150 CAD if it's at a good state probably yes.

I had an Q9650 with the 790i Motherboard. I had GTX 280s in SLi. Those were the days. Simply the best. I sold the PC in 2013 For around £750

Considering that cpu is $2 on ebay, probably not. 

[samcool55]

that's quite expensive.

Luke got a q6600 with mobo and 4gb ram (so sort of the same thing without gpu) for 100 CAD.

and that' gpu isn't worth 50 CAD...

Really?

In the ad he says he used it for an HTPC, and he reused the case and PSU for his new HTPC.

He also wrote this:

 

These parts work great as they were just used recently. This will play any file format, Blu-Rays, whatever you want. Can even play Skyrim at 1080p on Medium settings. Great machine and the CPU & the GPU can overclock like a beast too if you'd like some extra oomph.

Yeah, I knew that. Just not the motherboards. Or the chipsets.

That's not worth $150. Get him down to like $70CAD.

[NannerBeans]

Really?

Well $2 plus $3.50 shipping so $5.50
