Well, i may be interested in selling my gaming PC. I dont know how much to expect to get for it. As of now these are the specs....

-CoolerMaster Wave Master Aluminum Mid-Tower Case (Yellow Limited Edition)
-Asus P5AD2-E Premium Intel 925XE Chipset Motherboard
-Intel (I know, AMD is better) Pentium 4 640 3.2 Ghz 800 MHz FSB 2MB L2 Cache LGA755 Hyperthreading Processor
-AeroCool GT-1000 Gold Plated CPU Heatpipe Cooler
-OCZ Tecnology PowerStream 600W Modular Power Supply
-Seagate 7200.7 160 GB SATA HD with Native Command Queueing
-NEC ND-3530A 16x DL DVD burner
-eVGA e-GeForce 7800 GT CO 256MB Video Card
-OCZ Gold Series 1GB 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM Unbuffered DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit System Memory

I bought this system for $600....I was told that it was worth at least $1000...is this true?

You got a bargin at $600, Id say its worth $1000.

bigsaucybob · 01-29-2006, 10:36 PM

yea if u got that for 600 thats a pretty good deal.

TheChef · 01-29-2006, 10:37 PM

Yes thats a nice rig. It is worth around if not more than $1000 but it's all dependent on where you sell it.

Dude, the video card and that power supply are like 500 bucks. Where did you get all that for 600?

redrider773 · 01-29-2006, 10:50 PM

also depends on warranty, windows, and its condition, but you could prolly get $1000 on ebay.

liquidshadow · 01-29-2006, 11:28 PM

Over $1000 in my opinion. Around $1200

$600 is a good deal ... as for whether it's worth $1000, prolly not.

If you're paying $500 for that you're paying way too much
