1272127 2012-04-26 11:17:00 cheers guys hessy199 (16766)
1272128 2012-04-26 11:17:00 I meant with decent screen. stratex5 (16685)
1272129 2012-04-26 11:18:00 What kind of god like screen is worth $1500 second hand? icow (15313)
1272130 2012-04-26 11:22:00 Sorry i meant $1,500 - $2,000 for pc and a 23" screen and $3,500 was probibly a bit much for a desktop. Ive been looking at notebooks so sorry. stratex5 (16685)
1272131 2012-04-26 11:33:00 Hmmm, I'm going to say $500 ~ $600, maybe on a good day $700 ~ $750. Its only worth what someone wants to pay for it, you might get some mug chasing it up on trademe, or you might find a mate to hock it off to. But really, its not worth a lot, even though you have spent a lot on it. I would get a cheap case and power supply, put all your bits in it and sell it off as a going box with Vista on it. Keep your case and PSU for your next build, keep your sound card also.

My opinion only.

1272132 2012-04-26 20:47:00 $1200 or so will buy a new, similarly-performing gaming machine. inphinity (7274)
1272133 2012-04-26 21:47:00 It's not worth selling then buying another. Just upgrade the parts you want to increase performance for. pctek (84)
