You mean Core i7-970.

Also not really sure but have you looked on eBay, I'd imagine the Gulftown would still fetch a fair amount.

I thought I saw a 990X for $15 and the post expires in a day. Then I saw it was just the stock heatsink D::(

I usually give my old build to people that don't have a PC. by the time I've finished with it it not worth alot in the aftermarket.

and most people that don't have a pc, just want the internet any way

I just sold a "seller refurbished" PC with an I7-920, 8GB Ram, 500GB HD, the 600W PSU it came with and a GTX 650 2GB for 700 bucks. I'd say sell it.

Summer build: I7-4770K @ 4.5GHz, 4x4GB (Alternative black/red) DDR3 1600MHz, HD 7970GHz Water blocked, XSPC res/pump combo, 2 dual 120MM radiators, Corsair 350D Case, Corsair AX860I 80+ Gold PSU, custom red individually sleeved cables, red tubing w/ silver/chrome compression fittings, 480GB Crucial M500 SSD, ASrock Z87 MATX professional board, and a Corsair Vengeance K60 keyboard.
