    Yeah its a decent build for someone looking to get into gaming, but anyone that knows their stuff now wouldn't pay that price.

    Selling my Alienware aurora R2 next month for my first PC build.

    i7 860 2.8-3.4Ghz
    8GB 1333Mhz RAM
    Sapphire HD 7870
    500GB Seagate hybrid HDD
    875W power supply
    Liquid cooling for CPU
    Win7
    Alienware mouse and keyboard(the set i got with the system not the fancy ones)

    Some extra's,

    Corsair m60 gaming mouse
    Thrustmaster F430 wheel

    i was thinking around 400-500 euro but i really don't know how to price this system.

    Not a chance of getting €600, I think. It wouldn't have been that much new.

    Sorry to be a downer but id say less you can buy 2TB WD Green drive for 75 brand new so you would be looking at about 50-55 euro second hand and thats depending on age as well.

    I say you would be looking around 350 for the lot the machine is pretty out dated 1st gen CPU.

    DDR2 Memory its not worth much.

    Sorry i just said id give a better valuation but never no might get lucky and pull 400 for it :)

    Considering selling my system and upgradeing to Xeon or i7. Any idea what I could get for this:

    Lian Li B25 Blue Ring
    AMD FX6300(stock cooler)
    AS Rock 970 Pro 3
    Corsair cx600
    MSI gamers series GTX 660
    8Gb Gskill ripjaws 1600mhz cl10
    1Tb Seagate Barracuda 7200rpm
    TP link network card

    I could also throw in cheap mouse, keyboard and 17" monitor so it would be a full system. Looking for a rough idea on price to see if its worth upgrading

    I have a Packard bell TH36 a few years old I have recently replaced the battery.
    It has:
    Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OS
    250GB hard drive
    3GB ram
    Pentium(R) Dual Core CPU T4500 @2.30Ghz
    DVD: Combo/Super-Multi double-layer drive, fixed type with SATA interface
    1.3m webcam

    all basically factory, bar the new battery is it worth my while selling it? or just sell for parts?
    how much would it be worth?

    i guess you should chec on many other websites, similar computers that are being sold, it would give you a rough idea of it's price


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,579 ✭✭✭BopNiblets


    Hi guys, upgraded components this week, now I have spare:

    Intel Core 2 Duo E6850
    Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R
    4GB Corsair XMS3 DDR3 RAM

    They should be worth a few bob still, right? :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,579 ✭✭✭BopNiblets


    No thoughts on the above, thinking €100 for the whole lot, maybe a bit too much? Cheers.

    Id say you'd be lucky for the €100, there old and you would need to find someone wanting to build low budget pc, id say if you got an offer for a €60- 70 up take it.
