Well how much are you willing to spend? As for like 500 bucks it's better just to build something new most likely unless you get that one really cheap.

The only thing still worth anything major would be the case, as it's a standard pretty overpriced Lian Li case, otherwise the CPU is passable but old, and the GPUs are really old.

The seller wants €450, so i guess it's not really worth it then?

@houtekamert

i know that this pc is having generations old pc hardware and NO ONE will recommend buying that pc ,  

i mean really ,who will buy sli of gtx 580 in 2016 i7 920 BLOOMFIELD in time of skylake that i7 920 is having worst value for money of all cpu available for now ,over all it will be a really senseless  to buy this pc

see if he can let go for around 350, this pc should still give you decent fps in medium-high settings, provided the gtx 580 aren't 1.5gb ones.
