I want to sell my PC to get some money and buy myself a laptop since I found myself that I stopped playing on the PC and more on consoles. How much HONESTLY do you think it's worth? I'm guessing 600$ is ''ok'' because I'd like to make some profit.



AMD : AMD A8-6500 3.5GHZ QUAD CORE

RAM : 6GB 1600 MHZ ( 2 MORE RAM SLOTS AVAILABLE)

MOTHERBOARD : M11BB

GPU : EVGA NVIDIA GTX 750 1GB GDDR5

PSU : 530 WATTS 80+ BRONZE CERTIFIED ROSEWILL

HARD DRIVE DISK : TOSHIBA 1 TERABYTE 7400 RPM WITH SATA 6GB/S

CPU FAN : ENERMAX ETS-750 BLACK TWISTER

COMPUTER CASE : RAIDMAX ATX-402WB Black Steel

THERE'S ALSO A DVD DRIVE ON IT

Everything works perfectly fine, there's no heating issues, everything is plugged in correctly. It's just I wanna get rid of it.

Oh and please, be open minded. Don't compare it to rigs with like quadruple titan z and 12 cores cpu's.....

all depends on the buyer. $4-500 would be decent but might be able to get more if the right buyer comes along. look around some and find a prebuilt system with roughly the same processor and stats and see what they sell for. i know they are overpriced but that's the point. show someone something similar for more and yours will look like a bargain despite the fact it's still overpriced.

if the buyer does not know what's up and you can show hp's and dell's and such for $5-700 with the same processor (those who don't know only loo that far from what i have seen) might get lucky. it's a long shot but your looking to take advantage of someone who does not know what it's worth.

i have a heart so i'd sell it cheap to someone for their kid to use but then again i don't need the money either and would only want to get rid of it.
 
Less than you hope.
My guess $200.

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.

I'm gonna give it a shot. Thanks Bezzell and runswindows95 for your honesty. I'm still gonna test my luck and try to see it for 400-500. I mean, I'd like to make more than 200 or 300. xD
I understand you Math Geek too, but I'd like to have some spare money for college.

It's not worth anything close to $600. $600 could easily buy a better system. It's using an OEM motherboard from a prebuilt Asus, a low quality PSU, cheap case, has a slow apu, and an odd single channel memory config. It could be used as an entry level gaming rig, but would make a better HTPC. I think you'd be better off selling the gpu separately for ~$75 then selling the system as an HTPC for $200-250.
