Hey guys

Currently running a FX 8350 black, Asus Sabertooth 990FX R.2 with 16 GB DDR3 HyperX Predator.

 

Reticently I bought a 1080 Xtreme Gaming and I want to upgrade the rest of the rig, however 2 questions arise:

1- how much would those be worth selling for - the MOBO, CPU and RAM

2- When talking about Gigabyte Aorus K5 and G.Skill TridentZ RGB - can I control the RGB of the memory from that specific motherboard? (I saw an Asus mobo control those RGB-s but Aura technology is different from that gigabyte has as far as I know) , btw the CPU will be 7600k but don't really think it is relevant.

 

Thanks for the advice guys.
