Hey, Im selling my PC to upgrade to get a new one new one. The specs are: Windows 7 Home Premium, GA-78LMT-USB3, AMD Phenom II X4 965 at 3.7 GhZ, 4.00GB of 1600 RAM, and a Galaxy GT620, G105 Keyboard, M100 Mouse, and an ASUS 1280x1024 Monitor. And another question, what are some good specs for my new PC? Im looking at this: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1nsu6 is it very good?

I can't comment on the value of your current system but I do question your proposed selection of HDD for the new system. Why get a full tower case and a 2.5" 5400 RPM laptop HDD? Get a 3.5" 7k RPM HDD w/64k cache!

Your old system, maybe $300 w/o peripherals, $400 with them. No mention of powersupply or hard drive. (You can build a new system with similar specs for about $500 w/o keyboard, monitor, and mouse)

On your new system, invest in a much better CPU cooler, the 4770k runs hot. I use a corsair h80i, and it really isn't good enough.
