Hey guys,

I want to try and sell my gaming PC (as I no longer need it) through the Bell/Sell section and on eBay/Craigslist, and wanted some advice on a few things.

Firstly, do you think I'd get a better deal selling my system together in one piece (with activated Win7 64-bit Professional), or would I be better off selling individual components?

Secondly, I don't know what sort of price range I should be looking at. Obviously lower than what a new system with these specs would cost, but how much would you assess the following at?

Code:
Antec 900 Case with see-through side panel
ASUS P5K Mobo
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 Stepping (2.4GHz 1066MHz) L2 8MB Cache
Corsair 4GB (4x1GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 XMS2 Memory
BFG nVidia GeForce GTX 275 OC 896MB GDDR3
500GB SATA HDDs (2 x 250GB)
Creative X-Fi Fatal1ty 5.1 Sound Card
Samsung DVD Writer
Tagan 800W PSU with modular cables

This runs pretty much everything I throw at it, including Crysis on high settings on a 1920x1200 26" monitor (Samsung T260). Now I know that if people have money, they'd be better off buying a Core i7 with better components, but as I said - the above has served me well and plays everything pretty solidly. But alas, it's time for me to part ways with the system and I'd like to make some money doing so.
 
Please do not ask for a price check on any of the forums at the [H]. Price checks are allowed only in the pay-subscription General May[H]em forum.
 
~$400.

As far as selling it whole vs piecing it out...

1) Look up average sale price of part
2) If new, factor in how much your used part could go for
3) Add price to list
4) Repeat for all parts
5) sum the list
6) WholePrice = $400
If PieceOutPrice <= $400, sell parts separately
else sell whole
