This seems to be the right place to ask what I should, well, ask for my system.

*most parts are rather new*
Shuttle SB75G2
Pentium 4 3.2 Extreme Edition
1024mb Dual Channel OCZ Premier DDR400
ATI Connect3D 9600XT 256mb
120GB SATA Maxtor HDD
SB Live! 5.1
LG 8x DVD Single Layer BurnzOr

I would really like to get rid of this system and go with an A64/SLi machine. A friend of mine said he would buy it in August but I have a 'gut' feeling that hes not going to have the money together. What would you guys pay for this shit-box, if possible post minimum you would pay and maximum. Thanks in advance and let me know if I'm missing valuable information.

very astute ;)

you win a virtual cookie :p

Id compare newegg & pricewatch prices
and probably pick a median value, closer to one or the other depending
kind of depends, like for instance if you overclock and know what the CPU and thermal solution can do (if its a good performer full pop retail for instance), if youve modded or routed cables, youve done some integration, if there is an OS installed (and your legally transfering the license of course) youve secured the computer and troubleshot integration drivers yada yada yada
 
Without doing price checks, right off the top of my head I'd shoot for ~$550 $600. Just because I could build an A64 rig for not much more than that.

Although if you're friend is a n00b, you could prolly sucker $800 out of him/her. But's that's just not nice. :D
 
I agree on 500-600. That P4EE might have been uber expensive a while ago, but there's faster stuff for much less now. The 100 "maybe" bucks depend on what is coming with the rig.
 
I would say around $800. The Extreme Edition processor is still pretty expensive. I think you should sell the processor separately for like 400-450 and sell the system for $350.

You probably don't want to split it up, but if you ebay the processor your friend will surely be able to afford the rest. :D



 
At least $800, but you might be able to get more breaking it up and selling it in pieces.
