Hi guys,

Thinking about getting rid of my old PC which never gets used. I was considering putting it on E-bay and was wondering how much I should ask for it as I have no idea what it's worth now. All's I know is that it cost a fortune to build at the time.

The specs are :

CPU - Intel Q6600 - Never overclocked.
RAM - G.Skill 4GB DDR2 PK PC2-8500C5 (2x2GB). 1066mhZ
GFX - Point Of View 8800GT - With Zalman VF1000-LED VGA Cooler.
HDD - 500GB Western Digital. 7200RPM. Sata.
PSU - 520W Corsair.
Motherboard - Abit IP35-E.
CD/DVD - Pioneer DVD/CD RW.

Other accesories -
Logitech Rumble Pad 2.
I-Mon controller with remote control.
G 15 Keyboard.
Saitek GM 3200 Gaming mouse.
Logitech 2.1 Speakers. (Can't remember exact model but they are good quality.)

Monitors -
Asus 19' Widescreen monitor. TFT.
Hanns G 17' Widescreen monitor. TFT.

Got mobo box, PSU box, all drivers, cables and spare cables etc.

I would prefer to sell it as a full system really, don't really want the hassle of breaking things down.

Thanks for any advice.

No idea, but the chances are you will get more money and sale it far easier if you split.

Thanks that's more than I thought. I'd be happy to let everything go for that tbh.

Base unit - ~£350. You could build it new for £450-£500.

Accessories I couldn't say, find the cheapest new value and probably about 50-60% of that is a good bet.

Monitors - £60 on the 19" and £40 on the 17" ? If they're good.

You can get decent enough 19" Widescreen for £90 new, so work from that. If they were cheap screens, think more like £30/£20.

The sums I made were slightly cheaper than the retails price.. Try for a reserve of £375 and you might get lucky.

Were do you live?

edit - Stoke..

I'm phoning a guy later who wants a gaming rig..

Let him know what I've got for sale and maybe we could come to some arrangement. I would be happy to send anything out via courier.

Cheers!
