1291404 2012-07-29 06:55:00 Hello PC world fans. I have a computer for sale/trade here and I would like to know how much i should charge in order to sell it. This computer is less than a year old and Is at its finest condition. Its basically brand new. here are the specs as follows

CPU: Intel I7 2600k 4 core processor w/ hyperthreading so basically it works like a 8 core processor.
RAM: Corsair 1666 ddr3 ram, 16 gb 4x4. Dual channel
MB: Asus maximus 2 ROG edition
HDD: 2tb internal HDD, SLAVE!
SSD: vertex 3 ocz 120gb SSD, 540 mbps read and write
DD: 2 disk drives, asus and LG, both highest read and write capabilties.
Internet, 2 WLAN connections in the back + asus wireless N+ usb adapter
case: Coolermaster haf x 9-- case, its lower than 942 by ONE. forgot the name, can't find it
GPU:asus 590, dual core 1.5 gddr5 GFX, 1.5GB EACH, so 3gb in total
OS: WIndows 7- will be deleting when selling, I AM SELLING JUST THE COMPUTER, NO OS.
PSU: Corsair 1000W If I missed something please tell me. also a 22" LG monitor. Give me highest possible price. NEVER OVERCLOCKED, NO BAD BLOCKS, NO DEAD PIXELS, NO SCRATCHES NO DENTS, Its completely like i just bought it an hour ago and i just unpacked it and placed it. It has NO dust, it has been cleaned yesterday and will be cleaned once again when buyer will come/ shipping. So how much USD would you use on a computer like this? when I bought it total was over 4k CAD.

1291405 2012-07-29 07:50:00 US$ huh?

That explains a lot... like the insane amount of RAM.

I'll give you tree-fiddy for it. (US$3.50)

On a more serious note, it's worth a ton less than you paid for it, and really not worth any more than a brand new mid spec machine with OS and GPU installed.

But you asked what the MOST was you could get for it... well that all depends on how big a fool you can find, with the biggest fool being the one who pays the biggest price for it.

If you look in the mirror you might see your ideal customer.

1291406 2012-07-29 08:01:00 Oh calm down. I'd probably pay about $2000 for it. You could sell the parts separately, you may get more for it. ChazTheGeek (16619)
1291407 2012-07-29 08:42:00 USD 1500 MAX wouldnt pay more. stratex5 (16685)
1291408 2012-07-29 08:47:00 Nice computer. I'd say around $2000 Nick G (16709)
1291409 2012-07-29 09:12:00 Nice computer. I'd say around $2000

Do you mean NZD or USD?

1291410 2012-07-29 09:34:00 Do you mean NZD or USD?
NZ dollars, compared to what you can buy in NZ for $2000 new.

1291411 2012-07-29 10:10:00 Yeah that price seems about right:) stratex5 (16685)
1291412 2012-07-29 10:14:00 I reckon you'd get about $1400US ($1750NZ) without the screen, more if you parted it. That's on NZ prices so in the states you'll get less, parts are cheaper retail and more readily available. Might get like $100NZ for the screen. Depends how stupid the buyer is. The thing is it's all very well having something like a 590 GTX but if you can get say 2 cheap 570's you'd be silly to buy the 590 (unless you were after max performance in very specific tasks).


so basically it works like a 8 core processor

Not entirely true and almost pointless anyway.

1291413 2012-07-29 11:38:00 It is going to be far harder to sell at a good price with no OS. mikebartnz (21)
