Curious about the resale value

Okay, So I have a HP Compaq Elite 8300 CMT with:
Got an adapter to install a psu

650w Thermaltake PSU

Core I7-3770

16GB RAM (All from Elite 8300s)

Gigabyte GeForce 1050 Ti OC 4gb (windforce) (Brand New) (Hasn't even been installed yet)

 

Question is, what would someone realistically value this at?

I don't plan on selling, since I just finished, although I am curious what anyone would really pay for it, to see how well I did. Will post what I payed and how I got it later. Just in a bit of a rush atm.

I would say $450

To be an expert is to know more about less.

Cool. I had to get another 8300 (each was 150 with 8gb of RAM and 500gb HD), because the mobo fried in one. SO I didn't mention before, I have 4x 500gb HDDs, and 2 DVD writers, 1 is DL. Anyway, I have an extra processor (same) to sell. Any clue on resale for one of those? It's clean. Also need to sell a few old shitty cards. One is a gt 710 2gb and the others are AMD radeon hd 6450 1gb (if anyone will even buy any of these). BTW I don't have to run anymore. So if we disregard the fried mobo I figure I've put in about 480-500 and still need to sell a couple parts.

---- Also I have looked and see so many different prices, I am not sure what to price the CPU at. I know how to sell the cards.

honestly if you plan to resell you will pull more value by buying a nice looking case and by doing so giving it a much better appearance. because it's obvious people like buying things that look good more than they care about the performance. i mean...... fucking macs......

 

and that will add 100 to 200$ value to the system and will sell much faster too.

Hell yeah! I think I got a good thing going if I jump on it I think I need to jump if I am going to do it, though. SRS question that I asked before (kinda): what is a reasonable resale on a i7-3770?

 

 

EDIT: I am not totally new to all of this, just outdated. I am asking what you would reasonably pay for an i7-3770>
