Best way to sell my PC Gaming System

[The Pizza Thief]

Hi guys, I'm in the midst of moving back to Mexico and I want to sell my current system and make something smaller down the line, something less flashy, I don't know if I will be living in the university dorms or if I will be renting by myself, either way. My question is.

 

Should I take it all apart and sell the components separately? Or should I post it somewhere such as craigslist. I already sold one of the two 970's it had, everything else stays the same.

 

You can check out the system here: http://pcpartpicker.com/b/r6tJ7P   and here is the LTT Build thread https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/451350-snow-piercer-white-skylake-build/

 

Thanks !

I would recommend refurbishing it, and then reselling on Ebay for a bit more than buying all the components separate, say around $75 more.

Whatever you do, keep the CPU...

What do you mean by refurbishing it ? Like just cleaning it real good and doing some cable management? Everything runs perfect on that machine.

Why would I keep the CPU? If I decide to build something cheaper down the line I don't think I will get anything over lets say $1,200

Its a good cpu that can be reused in your cheaper builds... or are you a powerbuilder with caching to spare?

Refurbishing Means Giving It A Good Clean, Cable Management, Full Testing and Operating System Installation. Then I would install a few base programs such as malware bytes and chrome.

 

Sources: I run a refurbishing business on ebay.

What I mean is that most likely a Z170 chip won't fit a "budget" oriented build in the near future.

Oh alright, where are you based? Your description says Mexico.
I will delete everything for sure and leave it running like new.

Currently Mexico, soon moving to Atlanta. Already have the business partially going there. (And yes, I am going legally)

Cool  We are doing the opposite, I'm moving back to Mexico and you are moving to the states. I never said otherwise

Sounds fun. I estimate in about a week ill be fully moved. I am starting to branch into ultra low budget and integrated systems so this new space should help.
