Selling my OP rig

[Shubham Yadav]

So, at the 8th anniversary of my old machine, I am planning to sell it along with the 1440x900 monitor. I have a perfectly usable desktop right now(below) and I have attached the pic of the old rig just for the fun. 

 

The specs are:

dual core E2180 2.0 GHz.

Asus GT 210

1GBx2 DDR2

DVD writer

256 GB HDD

Some 280W PSU

Some proprietary case

Some proprietary MoBo

A CPU cooler that sounds like it can wake up the neighbor. 

 

I have a copy of windows 7 professional installed on this(not activated yet) and have a proper key for it. I also have key and ISO for windows 10 education. So  I was thinking if people really care about it and will they pay more if I give them the system with genuine copy of windows. Also what should I price the thing( with and without windows and with the monitor). 

 

The monitor looks pretty decent BTW even with today's standards. I would sell that for like 60-70$ alone. It's 19" in size and doesn't have horrible viewing angles. 

 

Any suggestions except "burn it as a sacrifice to satan" are welcome.

120-150 USD with the monitor maybe? Seems pretty old!

It's 8 years old. And it was entry level when I purchased it. 120-150$ seems like a decent value. Also what about the windows activation thing?

Don't think you can run windows 10 in it (the GT 210 probably doesn't support it but you can check). I would just used the windows 7 key and sell it with it.

Win 10 will run on it @Castdeath97 GPU is not a factor if it can or cant run it. I have an old Athlon X4 5600+ that is running just fine on Win 10 for my inlaws.

My old AIO refuses to upgrade to 10 because of its GT 210M (at least that's what the windows upgrade tool says).

If you think this is dusty, you have no idea how it looked a few days ago when I cleaned it. Basically the remaining dust has stuck to the surface and it will be a chore of the guy who buys it.

$30 and $20 for the monitor.

I already got an offer for 100$. Thinking of turning it down. Instead of 50$ I would rather burn it and enjoy the view.

I want to live where you live. Someone wants that for $100, To be fair, I was selling a similar specced PC for $100, then they told me what they were using it for, so I told the person to create a VM instead of buying it.

You really don't. Here PC parts cost 30-50% higher than most countries and it's just sad. The build you see in my signature cost me about 1000$. It's even sadder if you want to buy a monitor since the high end ones with 1440p and 144Hz cost above 1200$. 

 

That's mainly the reason why I can sell this at higher rates. Because everything costs a lot. Not to mention I am bundling a keyboard, a mouse and a front camera into the deal, and the monitor looks nice too.

India. The customs are 37% for most components.
