1291414 2012-07-29 12:35:00 Worth pointing out that VRAM is mirrored so you don't really have a 3gb gfx card (even though there is 3gb there physically) icow (15313)
1291415 2012-07-29 22:14:00 alrighty, if I were to install a copy of windows 7 ultimate 64 bit..... And remember this computer is only a year old. You can practically use it like a server due to its cpu, and ram. plus it has an ssd. so that should be increasing the speed OH AND GUYS
READ THE REST, i also said it comes with a monitor. so what would be your final AND HIGHEST price if you had a lot of money

1291416 2012-07-29 22:30:00 The specs are nice but myself I wouldn't spend that much on a 2nd hand machine, $2000NZ would seem about right if I was going to.
How I price my machines when I sell them is to price up the nearest new equivalent and then reduce it based on age more or less like this;
(note prices relate to a new equivalent machine not the original purchase price which has no relevance)
<3 months old ~ 75% of new
<6 months old 60-75%
<1 yr 50-60%
18 months or more - up to 50%

This is only rough and I usually sell things cheaper TBH because usually I've already built a replacement and I'm just trying to recover some cash

1291417 2012-07-29 22:44:00 Yeah, NZD$2000 sounds about right. Could build a new machine for around $3k with comparable or better spec. inphinity (7274)
1291418 2012-07-29 23:08:00 oh and I forgot to mention one thing, Its water cooled, antec h20 khuler h70 guy4732 (16333)
1291419 2012-07-29 23:32:00 Mmm I'll echo the sentiments, you'll likely get ~$1800 for it?

SSDs are coming down in price *rapidly* now...

1291420 2012-07-30 03:05:00 General used rule is 70% of it's value, seeing as it's not more than 1 year old. pctek (84)
1291421 2012-07-31 01:16:00 Heres a link to the ad I placed, Check it out. Maybe it'll raise your price.

1291422 2012-07-31 01:25:00 It would be pretty expensive to get it to New Zealand from Canada.

1291423 2012-07-31 01:26:00 CAD$3500 is NZ$4300. I could build a higher spec box brand new for that. Thanks, but no thanks. Plus shipping would suck :P inphinity (7274)
