I personally wouldn't buy anything other than that PSU. Everything else is a bit underwelming. I think if you're aiming for a few hundred US dollars (convert to your currency), it would still be tough because someone can buy a pre-built computer for that price and will get a better deal. But that PSU is really awesome and I wouldn't mind buying that by itself if it's in good condition.

I'll agree its a little underwelming nowadays, ofcourse considering all of it's nearly 3 years old, it always seemed like quite alot lol. It has the Black Editions of the CPU and GPU but I never bothered overclocking them. The case intakes are filtered so its a really clean pc. Wisper quite with the water cooled and 200mm fan. Plays anything I've ever thrown at it but built it specifically for video encoding a media library without taking up much space (always though it was a beast for a uatx)... Used to have 9TB of HDD lol Bought so much HD space I didn't seem it would ever get filled and sold the third 3TB HDD... any price as is?
 
Like I said, I wouldn't buy it so I can't give a price. Your best bet is to ask if anyone is willing to buy it and then ask them how much they're willing to pay. But if I were you, I wouldn't get my hopes up on getting much money from it.

Of course no one will pay the full price to build an identical system new - duh. The point is to give him a point to start regarding price. RIght now, he has no idea what price range his system is worth. And I actually answered his question. No one else did. They were all too busy bashing his system stating they wouldn't buy this part or that part or that this part was only worth so much. And "Not very much, I would ask a couple hundred for it." is a piss poor answer and shows you did not make any effort to provide a correct response. Typical of the new generation...READ first before responding!

Listen, I said I would ask a couple hundred for it... That is what I think people would pay for it and I think around $200.00 is fair. And guess what "read before responding", pcpartpicker doesn't list all of the parts and prices for his build, so your response does him less of a service than your post does. My "piss poor" excuse for a response had actual info, yours did nothing for him. If you want to talk about the new generation, I suggest you go discuss that with your adolescent peers. (I assume you are a child or an adolescent because you are resulting to name calling and profanity, and if you are not a child It's quite obvious that you have no education or class, and are therefore on the intellectual level of an adolescent). I feel bad for you, why do you have to try and put others down? Is it so you can feel good about yourself? Please work on bettering yourself.
