Is this used computer (6700k + 1060 6gb) a good price?

EunSoo

Hello, I am interested in buying a used computer from craigslist. I am going to be using it for Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, Overwatch, tomb raider and other story games at 1440p144hz (don't expect to hit that for graphics-heavy titles). Here are the specs:

 

CPU: Intel - Core i7-6700K 4GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
Motherboard: Asus - Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory: Crucial - Ballistix Sport LT 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4-2400 Memory
Storage: Samsung - 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Video Card: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Mini ITX OC Video Card
Case: Phanteks - Enthoo Evolv ATX Glass ATX Mid Tower Case
Power Supply: SeaSonic - 660W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply 
Price: $960

It seems like a great deal considering the gpu, case and ram. And the PSU, motherboard and CPU are good too. I have spare 1tb Hard Drives and I'd probably replace the cooling with a beefier cpu cooler and quieter case fans so maybe a hundred extra dollars but still. That's pretty good, i think. Any other ideas?

It's a moderate deal.   Try getting in $800-900

It good deal if it has a OS. :) Just make sure it runs and everything in good shape.

i'll ask. Though, even if it doesn't, I have spare copies that I wouldn't mind using on this one.
