Hi I was just wondering what value my PC is as I was thinking of buying a new one, if mine is worth a certain value (I have one in my head lol) however I genuinely have no idea how much it is worth!

The system is 1 year old however has had numerous upgrades (GPU, PSU, RAM + HD) and is in very good condition as Ive cleaned it many times to keep it top notch! Here are the specs:

AMD A8-3870 APU with Radeon HD Graphics 3.00 GHz (4 CORE!)
8 GB RAM DDR3
64 Bit Operating System - Windows 7 Professional (I think)
Disk Drive (DVD and CDs and stuff like that) ATA Device?
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti
500GB HD

If there is anything else that will help just tell me :)

I also have a 750W PSU haha!

Just for the parts you listed you're looking right at $600 if you were to buy them all new right now. However, since it's used you should not expect to sell it at that price--more like $400.

2nd hand stuff, sorry pc hardware depreciates a lot despite previous care. But to the ignorance possibly more.

AMD A8-3870 APU with Radeon HD Graphics 3.00 GHz (4 CORE!) $50
8 GB RAM DDR3 $30
64 Bit Operating System - Windows 7 Professional (I think) $20 for uncertainty
Disk Drive (DVD and CDs and stuff like that) ATA Device? $5 for DVD rom
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti $70
500GB HD $20

$195 without monitor

Hmm...just based on experience I would pay $300-350 for that system. You could probably squeeze $400 out of it, however youre in the category where if someone wanted a quick PC to play newer releases on medium, they would go to you. That puts you around console pricing, which is ~$400.

8 GB RAM DDR3 $45
64 Bit Operating System - Windows 7 Professional (I think) $40 (in reality it costs $120 but because of pirating the value goes down quite a bit)
Disk Drive (DVD and CDs and stuff like that) ATA Device? $10 for DVD rom
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti $80
500GB HD $30

$255 without monitor + $100 for putting it together in a case with fans and everything already connected/extra money if youre good at bargaining

I'm not saying the person above me is wrong, i'm just adjusting the prices to match my opinion

Your prices are a little low boju, for example the cheapest used A8-3870 I could find was $75, and most used 650 Ti's are closer to $100. Plus there's a motherboard, power supply, and case to consider since OP didn't list them.

$400 was a best case scenario, in all likelihood this system would catch an easy $300 on Craigslist or eBay.
