I'm wondering if i were to sell my current rig, how much would be reasonable to charge? Specs in Sig, i was thinking somewhere around 16-1700.
 
unfortunately its always a lost selling used things, once someone spends over a certain amount they question just paying extra for new etc... some mindsets... at same time, dont be a fool and let go dirt cheap, knock off $$$ and advertise with OBO :)

x2 4200+
2gb Corsair XMS DDR400
eVGA 7900GT CO SC
300gb Seagate 7200rpm HDD

what board?
what psu?


I'd guess about 1400 or so.
 
it's an ultra x-connect 500W modular power supply, with UV green cables, and an eVGA premium SLI mobo
 
If its not too old, ie parts still under manufacturers warranty, I think 1600 is reasonable, especially if you take into consideration time and effort in building.

Pics!
 
because i'm sick of all the work that i need to put into pc's just to get a good gaming experience, if i sell i'm going to just buy an xbox 360 and an HDTV, until the PS3/Wii comes out. i love PC gaming dearly but it's just becoming too much of a hassle...
 
Looks to me like you already put in the work for a great gaming PC. Would you really want to start from scratch?

The XBOX 360 would be like buying your gaming rig and then welding the case shut. You can't upgrade when Gotham racing number whatever comes out.
 
the nice thing is that i won't need to upgrade. that's why i'm thinking about switch back to the console realm, since the games work out of the box. no tweaking, upgrading or anything. just throw it in and push power and you're set. i've been working with PC's for almost 7 years and i'm just getting bogged down about them. the competition in the technology market is over whelming with too many new products coming out too fast and quite frankly i'm just sick of trying to keep up
 
would this be including the screen?

Looks like the parts you've listed minus the screen works out to ~$1200-1250 new.

With the screen, ~$1500 new.

I wouldn't sell it for anything more than probably 1300-1350 with screen. You've got to give someone a reason to buy a used computer from joe shmoe (I don't mean that as an offense).
 
Here are the parts new:
4200 $350
7900gt 300
mobo 100
x20g 300
case ~100
hd 100
dvd drive 50
RAM 150
PSU ? 50
---------------------------
~1500
I think you should try and sell it for 1200.
