Hey, I been using PC for games before, now that I am kind of bored of them and that I have PS3 I am looking to sell it.
So things are as follows:

Monitor: LG FLATRON W2246T 21.5" (perfect condition, not a single scratch or dead pixel)

PC insides:

Intel i5 2500k 3.3 ghz (about 5 months old, bought in june)
P8H67-M Motherboard (bought at same time with CPU)
6 GB DDR3 1333 mhz RAM. (bought at same time as CPU)
750 WAT PSU (bought at same time as CPU)
HD5770 GDDR5 1 GB GPU (about 3 years old)

Intel 520 Series 60 gb SSD (bought at same time as CPU)
500 GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive (1 year old)
120 GB 5000 RPM hard drive. (2 years old)
And some DVD-ROM.

Will drop in also a tablet for drawing as I have no use for it.

So what would you estimate it rougly? or would it be better to sell it by parts?

Intel i5 2500k 3.3 ghz 120-160 euro
P8H67-M Motherboard 60-80 euro
6 GB DDR3 1333 mhz RAM. about 40 euro
750 WAT PSU Brand and model?
HD5770 GDDR5 1 GB GPU 50 euro

Intel 520 Series 60 gb SSD 30 euro
500 GB 7200 RPM Hard Drive 30 euro
120 GB 5000 RPM hard drive. 10-15 euro

What case is it in?

Probably get about 400-450 euro for it depending on the PSU.

Could be off though I havent been keeping up to date on prices of components the last few months. Others might have a better estimate.

To give you an idea, here:

Item|Price
Intel Core i5-2500K Box, LGA1155|€198.76
8GB-Kit G.Skill PC3-10667U CL9|€27.29
WD Caviar Blue 500GB SATA 3 6Gb/s|€55.64
Samsung SSD 830 128GB SATA 6GB's Paper Box|€86.58
ASRock Z68 Pro3 Gen3, Sockel 1155, ATX|€83.99
Xigmatek Asgard, ATX, ohne Netzteil, schwarz|€32.23
Super-Flower Amazon 80Plus 450W|€42.45
Club 3D Radeon HD 7750, 1024MB GDDR3, AMD Radeon HD 7750, PCI- Express|€81.59

Gpu is fairly similar I think. 8gb ram instead of 6. I think the mobo is better(not 100%). SSD is twice the size. I just included a basic case and PSU, both decent enough though.
All these are brand new so might give you something to work off.

The HD7750 that you listed is GDDR3 as opposed to GDDR5, so it would be weaker than the 5770.
