How much money could I sell my PC that's "used good condition" for?

My parts are listed here- https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QFGqNN\

Give your honest opinion, and thank you!

Fair price IMHO would be around $600. It may be less though as it does have odd parts. Let me explain, the CPU is locked in a unlocked motherboard, PSU isn't very good quality & no SSD with a budget HDD may make this a tougher sale.

600 may even be pushing it, If I got anything over 500 I would take it.

Rule of Thumb

Rule of Thumb - Take your build cost and then subtract 10% .... then 5% for each month of age for 6 months (60% value at this point) ... then 10% for every 6 months thereafter.

0.5 year old - 60% of build cost
1.0 - 50%
1.5 - 40%
2.0 - 30%
2.5 - 20%
3.0 - 10%

I don't know anyone who used Win 8 so ... is that license transferable ? If not ... take off $50 from what ya get above

It seems much was sacrificed to meet a budget and include the 390 GFX card... as such, that will take a hit on resale.
Mismatched MoBo / CPU - take off $50
Low end PSU, RAM and Case ... take off $50

If ya "part it out", the HD (this HD scores 6.55 MB/sec which is better than say WED Black @ 6.34) and GFX card will bring in the highest % of the original price as both have decent gaming performance

How is my PSU "low end"

Barty1884 · Dec 28, 2016

"low end" was probably a little extreme from JN, but we discussed the NEX lineup early EpicLegends. It's far from the best, but could be a lot worse. Used PSUs are not very desirable to begin with, but 'top of the line' (at least PSUs that were top of the line when new) do hold some resale value.

I agree that you should take anything >$500. I'd actually suggest anything >$400, or part it out. Between the CPU+Mobo+RAM & GPU. you could probably recoup at least $300-$350 right there, with storage, a case & a decent-ish PSU to reuse yourself.

Good Idea, sell the parts instead of the entire rig.
