600 watt OCZ power supply
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3
Thermaltake Frio cpu cooler

He said he also ended up taking out the 320GB hard drive and it runs Windows 7 pro, so what would you value this at?

It's worth around $850 (new) . Since it's used (assuming) I'd buy it for a lower price.

you can build a fx8320 r9-270x system for $650-700 (without the ssd) which not only has a better gpu but also a better cpu.

keep in mind that pc parts can drop 15-20% every 6 months. personally... i wouldnt pay more than $400-ish although for the money you would invest in his rig... you would be far better off if you built new for a few hundred more.
