Im looking at building a new pc, however to help fund my future build im looking to sell my current rig. The components are as followed:
i7-4790k
ASRock z97 extreme 6
Noctua NH-D14 Cooling Fan.
HyperX 16gb 2133MHz
WD 1TB
Kingston 120GB SSD
Corsair CX750 Builder Series
Corsair 600t (case)
Samsung 24x Retail SATA DVD Writer

Any advice on what price tag I could put on this computer with these parts, the computer baring in mind is 3 years old.

I suggest you look at what similar models are selling for locally. Prices for used gear is not global. If you're in the USA check craigslist and ebay. Items which sit for a very long time without selling are over-priced. Items which sit for less than a week are typically realistically priced.

I recently bought 2 similar PCs for my older two boys here in the Seattle area; I paid less then 400 for them. Your's has a few slightly nicer parts so if it were in Seattle, I would estimate your PC to be in the 450-600 range. Probably close to (or just over) the top if it included an OS, video card and a basic monitor.

A few things to keep in mind.
It doesn't matter what you bought it for. Prices on Amazon are higher than you can get...

It doesn't matter what you bought it for. Prices on Amazon are higher than you can get because you won't offer a warranty or returns. A stripped PC requiring skill to make run again (even something as simple as an OS install) is worth a lot less. Your willingness to meet someone (drive) half way will help you get more. Installation will get you more. Do not go alone, there are some evil creeps out there; public meeting places are the safest. I like to meet at Starbucks.
