Fair price for home build

Jackietools · May 5, 2016

Just built a PC with mostly new parts and some used. Specs are used FX-8350, new Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 mother board, 16 GB (8GBX2) , new HyperX FURY 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory, new Cooler Master HAF 912 - Mid Tower Computer Case with High Airflow, Supporting up to Six 120mm Fans and USB 3.0, new SAMSUNG 850 EVO 2.5" 500GB SATA III 3-D Vertical Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) MZ-75E500B/AM, new Corsair Hydro Series Cooling H75 Performance Liquid CPU Cooler, new WD WD10EZEX 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb/s 64MB Cache 3.5-Inch, Blue, new
Rosewill RCR-IC001 - 3.5" Internal 40-in-1 Card Reader with USB 2.0 Port & Extra Silver Face Plate
Windows 10 Home X64. Added 3 new Cooler Master SickleFlow 120 - Sleeve Bearing 120mm Blue LED Silent Fan plus various wire and cable extenders. The parts alone are 920 dollars and I have to take into account at least 50 dollars to ship. Im open to any and all suggestions. Thanks. I have been building and repairing PC's for about 8 years now and just want a fair price. Great gaming PC. May want to upgrade the GTX 670 eventually. Good PC for over clocking the FX-8350.

I think around $650 would be good for it.

I would never overclock an 8350 on that board, and definitely wouldn't advertise or advise people to do it. It has a 4+2 power phase, all you will do is have problems.

I really don't see much value there. Poor choice of CPU and board. No power supply listed that I can see. I'd take the SSD, GPU and HD out to use in a new Intel Skylake build and chuck the rest. I'd probably offer about $300 USD.

I forgot it has only 1 4 pin CPU power and would not be good for overclock.Here is the PSU. EVGA 110-B1-0750-VR 80 PLUS Bronze Modular 750W NVIDIA SLI Ready and Crossfire Support Active PFC ATX12V EPS12V Power Supply. Like I said I put it together with parts I had, new or old that were laying around. Did not choose the CPU to go with mobo. My uncle gave me the CPU after the fact when I already had been given the brand new mobo from someone. Don t need a PC for myself as you can see my current build. Yes a Skylake is on my mind but may wait for Cannonlake. Dont know if Kaby Lake is worth waiting for or just wait for Cannon Lake. If all I get is 300 I'll keep it. I'd at least like to cover the parts and Windows cost.

300 is way low, I think you may get away with 650 for it. At least thats what I would ask to start

Thanks. I mean for myself or others who build PC's, no I would not pay it as I can build one myself. I understand most of us here are enthusiasts but I'm talking the average person who can not build their own PC and wants a decent custom gaming PC. I see nothing wrong with this as a decent gaming PC and think the GTX 670 will still run the latest games on at least medium settings. Most people will not overclock anyway and the 8350 is a good AMD gaming CPU. Do you recommend where I should try to sell it? Ebay? Thanks.
