Hi there,
A friend of mine is looking to buy a gaming pc and a friend of his is offering his up for $2500 aus
Specs are as follows:

intel 3930 @5GHZ
2 x 7970 GHZ editions
Saber Tooth x 79
Burdening Shinoni XL case
16gb dominator platinum @ 2133
Intel 330 120gb ssd and a 1gb cavier black
AX850
windows 7

both the gpus and the cpus are watercooled

He has also offered to do overclocking etc...

Is this a reasonable price? what would you guys offer?
prices are all Australian dollars :)
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Finn

I don't think its worth it, you could build your own beast of a machine for AUD2000. Like what Mr.i7 said, he can sell his build for $2000, and that build is much more stronger than your friend's build

Thanks for the quick replies guys,
just to clarify, this is not for me, a friend of a friend is trying to sell his computer to another one of my friends who is new to the whole PC gaming scene and has asked for my help (hope that isn't too confusing :p)
$2500 was out of his price range anyway, what would be a good price for it? 1000? 1500?

another guy as offered a separate and lees powerful build for cheaper, do you mind if I post that here or would it be best to start a new thread for it?

Thanks again

Maybe around $1000-1200. And no need to make a new thread
