So I just built a new computer and im not sure what to do with my old one.

Specs:

17" Samsung LCD
X Navigator case w/ 450w power supply
Soltek K890Pro mobo
AMD 64 3000+ cpu
1GB PC-3200 memory
6600GT video card
160GB hard drive
DVD Burner
CD burner
floppy drive
Windows XP w/ SP2 os

The only thing wrong with it is the fan on the video card, but it works just fine.

Is this worth anything at all? I dont know where to ask, so I thought maybe you guys could help me out.
 
No price checks allowed in this forum.

With that said, you might get more money parting it out. Or you can repurpose the PC:

Just use it as a backup PC. I have one with similar specs to yours. I don't use the gaming PC just to browse the internet. I don't load anything on the game PC other than just games alone. The slower Athlon 64 PC I do the web browsing, word documents, dvd watching.
