So I'm looking to sell it to my friend and I wanted to give him a fair price. How much should I sell it to him for? Also should I keep any parts, he wants the whole thing, but I understand that some are'nt worth selling like the case maybe. I payed around $1,100 for it about 2 years ago. Thanks:)
 
Solution
A pc will usually fetch more if it is disassembled and the parts sold individually.
That is because it is unlikely that a buyer will want exactly the same pc.
Find your parts in used condition on ebay.
Then filter on completed auctions,
In green you will see what the part actually sold for.

You could sum up the actual selling prices as a start.

Your build is quite attractive. It is worth what your friend is willing to pay for it.

For a friend, ask what he is willing to pay, then take something off and give it to him for less.

Hey,

As it's 2 years old, it would be around 300-400$ right now, 'cause old parts mean weakened parts. It's around 300-400$ mainly because of the i7.

You can look up the parts and lower the value by 3x.

Hope it helped :) (don't forget to set as best answer)
