How long have you been using it?
People normally wont buy oc'ed stuff because there is no warentee and it could die.
Otherwise I'd say around 1500$ retail (1000$ if you looked hard) but you might sell it for 700$ if your lucky.

I would say around $600 but only becuase it comes with a monitor. Truthfully for $500 I could build a computer better then that.

From where? (not saying that I don't believe you, need some good stores)

I really think that nobody will buy a system that has been oc'ed though.

I would say $1000 because that a nice monitor. The only thing is I think that a skt A motherboard and cpu and I could never spend $1000 on anything skt A.

So I say $400 for computer without video card. $150 for video card. $450 for monitor and speakers.

then I was not far off. if you spent 1300 then you figure 300 goes off it just for not being new anymore.

lol thats true, but trhe mobo its not as bad as you make it seem
look
Specifications:
Supported CPU: Socket A AMD Duron/Athlon/Athlon XP Processors
Chipset: NVIDIA nForce2 Ultra 400 + MCP
FSB: 200/266/333/400MHz
RAM: 3x DIMM support Dual Channel DDR400/333/266/200 Max 3GB

for 40 bucks i think i got a good deal. plus i had other priorities besides being super fast,i wanted the speakers, the tv card, the 19inch monitor with 12ms, the sound car, its a multi purpose system,and i had to balance my piggie bank. but in the future when i get a better job, i will get a better mobo and cpu.

for $40 it a good mobo. It is a great skt A mobo. I just personally believe it worth a extra $50-$100 to move up to a skt 754 cpu and motherboard. If you happy with it great. I just no longer recommend skt A setup unless the budget ridculous low. I believe most people would be happier with a skt 754 sempron for your budget cpu. sky 754 mobo/cpu combo these days only cost $150. I gussing you spent around $100 for the skt A mobo/cpu combo. Unless you got some kind of special deal.

well not really, my brother gave me the mobo(its $40 in newegg)/cpu/and 1 512 ram 3700 stick (free/new) so i built around that to feed my needs. i could had save more money i guess,i got lazy and bought verything on newegg.com. if i would had search a lot i prob would had gotten it for 1000, but hey,im cool.i just wanted to know,if in case i had to sell it to buy another one even better.
