Hello i want to sell my computer, but i have no idea about what price i am going to sell it for...
Bear in mind that this computer is about 5 years old but works perfect!

Specs:
Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q9650 @ 3.00GHz
+cooler master hyper 212 evo
8,0GB RAM DDR2
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
MSI P45 Neo-F( (MS-7519)
Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB 2.5" OEM
Samsung HD103UJ 1TB HDD
SAMSUNG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner
corsair carbide 330r blackout edition
corsair tx650w power supply

Running win10, runs smooth with no problems

>>53860638
Sell off the parts individually. You'll make more. It's going to be hard to sell parts that old, though.

Some of those you just won't be able to sell, though. The PSU and hard drives for obvious reasons, and the RAM and mobo because nobody's going to need it.
>>
>>53860638
100 USD

Where do you live?

Shiggy anon. Shiggy diggy doo.

Even an AMD FX-6300 is better than that trash.

Also
>DDR2

It's like you're trying to put nice rims on a shitty car with that video card and then sell it as a luxury vehicle.

But don't worry about what we say - normies are stupid and will buy anything. Just add up the total cost of all the parts as if they were new and see if you can get that. Some normies don't want to have to assemble their PC. Make sure you take pictures of it actually in operation.
>>
I probably take it for 100$. Maybe less. Then again I don't -need- it. Processor and RAM really isn't that good. And your PCIe 3.0 GTX 760 is being used on a PCIe 2.0 motherboard.

I'd turn it into a small home server, really. Or try to find an ITX mobo and turn it into a tiny indie gaming machine for the living room instead of this firebox. Games on there sux.

Somebody who is looking to get a computer could definitely be ripped off at buying it for ~250-400.

Anybody who knows even a little about computers would probably ask you to give them money to take it unless they had a fun project idea to do.

Meh, i'd give him around $100 for it.

Wouldn't pay much more than that though.
>>
Nah you guys are exaggerating. That PC is old but it's not worth only 100. I would say it's worth about 150-200. It has an SSD. The GPU is decent. The case and PSU are good. The Q9650 and DDR2 RAM is kinda bad. That's the only reason it's worth so little. You could probably sell it to someone who doesn't know better for 300.

500$ maybe. I'd probably say 600 but in person with the loud noise ID say 500 because now I have to buy a new watercooler.

>>53861171
Explain yourself, meme poster.

You could probably get a couple hunndred $ for it but it would be hard finding a buying. Gl man
>>
>>53861237
Damn. I'll keep that in mind.
>>
>>53861237 Are you fucking brain dead?
>>
>>53861186
no you stupid idiot you get a 1151 motherboard that supports overclocking, get a i5 6400 non-k and find the proper bios to get double cpu performance
>>
>>53861211
A seagate 2TB HDD is very different from a WD 2TB HDD price and value wise.

Also "500W PSU" could mean anything from $20 to $100+

>PCI-e wifi
This could also be anywhere from $20 to $80 (for a really good PCI-e wifi card)

When you're asking for a price check, include the exact part numbers or the estimates can be very far off.
Use speccy or something if you're on windows I guess
>>
>>53861265
But that sounds hard
>>
>>53861265
My MicroCenter doesn't have the 6400 in stock. They have a 6500 though
>>
>>53861264
Are you? PCIe 2.0 has a max bandwidth of 8GB/s. A gtx 760 has a memory bandwidth of 192GB/s.

That's a big fucking difference compared to PCIe 3.0's fucking 33GB/s bandwidth you retard.
>>
>>53861272
I'm on my daily driver now, here's a link to the prebuilt website

http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03652382

Actually has a 600W PSU. Hm. Probably chink-tier. Anyway, I'd like to get rid of it. No space for it and I've got something more powerful anyway.
>>
>>53861345
32GB/S ***
>>
>>53860638
This is almost exactly my rig. Mine has a q6600. I paid ~30 bucks for it.
>>
>>53861337
That works. The thing is just that people here don't realize that overclocked non-k Skylake i5s give by far the best price-performance of all processors available right now.
>>
>8GB DDR2
WTF

>>53861345
dumbass
>>
>>53861410
>Consistently insults people
>Offers no rebuttal using normal standards in the tech industry

You're literally telling me that either PCIe 2.0 is as good as 3.0 of that the 760 is a PCIe 2.0 CX card. Which are both fucking retarded statements.
>>
>>53860638
300 euro with screen and mouse/keyboard

I have an i3 2120 build with a 560 here gathering dust along with an older 4600+ and 5670 one.

Do you guys sell old rigs on craiglist and alike?

A friend of mine wanted a computer, but if I sell the i3 build to him I don't expect any profit.
>>
>>53860763

Nothing wrong with DDR2, as long as it clocks high enough (800-1066) and has enough size it's fine. It won't impact your gaming performance really.
>>
>>53860638
200 €, possibly more. It is only C2Q and DDR2, but with a solid entry 760, SSD, HDD and possibilities to upgrade.

I would start on 400 €, not sure where you come from, the hardware prices are different in other countries.
>>
200
>>
Op here, thanks for all the advice, i knew IT would be a hard sell...
>>
>>53861883
its not a "hard sale" if you are realistic with a 25% depreciation per year
>>
Put the parts separately on Ebay. I'm going to price them from mid to high, if you have patience you can part it out and cash out decently.

>Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q9650 @ 3.00GHz
$40-50. People still have old motherboards with C2D processors, putting in a C2Q will give it life for a few years more.

>+cooler master hyper 212 evo
You can sell this with the CPU for $50 bundled together or sell it separately for maybe $10. Just clean the fuck out of it, make sure it doesn't have any remains of thermal paste and someone building a budget computer might take it.

>8,0GB RAM DDR2
If that's a matching set, you will hit gold, it's not very easy to find this much DDR2 that works. Especially if you don't have any for sale locally, someone trying to improve their old LGA775 build will almost overpay for these. I know I did. I'd say $40 or more. If it's slower than 800mhz then maybe $30

>NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
That's $40 to even 80 depending on the availability in your area. People still buy these to run in SLI, maybe prolonging the lifespan of their old build for a year. I think you can definitely shift this quick.

>MSI P45 Neo-F( (MS-7519)
Hit or miss. If someone needs one, they might be harder to get a hold of locally. I'd say start low but if you can bother checking your local area CL/Ebay and there are none for le.fi/sale, try starting at $30. If there are alternatives, then drop 10 off at least. Keep in mind that if your motherboard has some features the cheapest ones don't have you can ask more. That's SATA ports or PCIe slots for example.

>Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB 2.5" OEM
>Samsung HD103UJ 1TB HDD

Keep the memory, you can't really make money on them but you can put them in your next computer.

>SAMSUNG 22X DVD±R DVD Burner
Borderline worthless. Maybe $5.

corsair carbide 330r blackout edition

$20-30

corsair tx650w power supply

$20-30. Bundle it with the case for $50-60.
>>
Its always odd seeing people with the same case and fan.

Its a pretty bad case, wouldn't reccomended

List it for $400, it'll give you some wiggle room.

Feck off we dont need your shitty apology.
>>
>>53861426
The fucking Titan X isn't bottlenecked by the bandwidth of PCIE 2.0. The GDDR5 feeds into the GPU. The only thing that the GPU uses the PCIe slot for is power and instructions from the CPU.
>>
>>53860638
>>53862032
That case is worth $50 minimum, so long as it's in good condition.

Reminder that a good case is the only thing in a computer that doesn't become obsolete in a year or wear out, so the value is quite static.
>>
>>53862449
Case tech has far improved and people have moved away from black squares
>>
>>53860638
5 bucks.
>>
ITT a bunch of neets who's mom didn't buy them a gaming rig.
>>
>>53860638
Pretty ancient CPU, also only DDR2. Definitely at least 250€. If you buy some fans with green LEDs, you might increase the value by tricking dumb kids.
>>
>>53862447
Not him but
>Using all of your lanes for outdated hardware
Pls
>>
>>53862545
Not to mention the more efficent energy usage.

Definitely go for the green leds.

>>53862490
The 330R has toolless bays, thumb screws everywhere, great cable management, support for long GPUs, dust filters on the intakes, mounts on top and front for radiators, sound dampening material on the panels, has neutral aesthetics, and front USB3.

It's a fantastic case, and I challenge you to point out what it's missing.

I sold my 300R for $50, and I could have gotten more for it. Getting a decent second hand case is a challenge because when people upgrade, the case is one of the last things they consider-- if you bought a good case to begin with, you don't need to upgrade it. As such, you can almost ask retail price minus taxes and shipping for a half decent case (again, as long as it's in good condition). For $50, the best new case you're going to get is a piece of shit compared to the 330R, so I PROMISE that someone will buy it at that price, or even more.
>>
>>53862639
All pretty standard now days, the problems are the vibrating from panel, loud fans and the plastic parts are rather cheap.
>>
>>53862712
Also isnt it 300r or was there a revision?
>>
>>53862733
The 330R is a modified version of the 300R that includes a different front panel with a door and sound dampening material on the panels. Other than that, it's the same case.

>>53862712
Like I said, you're not going to do better for $50. The 300R retails for $70.
>>
>>53861568
If it's string there gathering dust, 20 bucks would be a profit.
>>
>>53862784
In that case (ayy) i retract my statement, the case is one of a high tier, only faulted by its plastic base if still present. How recently was it released?
>>
>>53860638
150$ tops
Nobody knows how something has been treated, and its a Core2 for gods sake.
>>
>>53862839
Like three years ago. I think that's about the time that manufacturers got really good about what features really matter in a case. As far as I can tell, most cases from that point on don't suck dick. Even really cheap cases might not have some luxuries like dust filters or sound dampening, but they'll at least have space for cable management, which is something I can't say for every case from six years ago.
