Rule of Thumb (Best Case) - 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.

On ebay, however high it goes.

graphics card price as new+power supply price as new x 2 = resale price + monitor as new

i personally think that OC anything makes it lose its value because it shortens the life of the component no matter how stable it is.

plus how long have u had this computer?

... and tell me again why you're selling this?

If you're selling it for any reason other than you need the money to support your new heroin habit, this is ... not smart.

Depends on who you're selling it to. I've had OC'd machines running 24/7 longer than stock ones. I'd pay more for a known OC'd G0 Q6600 than a B3 out of an HP anyday. Jack Naylor's about right with his little algorithm there, sad to say. You'll get more selling it piece by piece.

I’m selling it because I am not a gamer. I wish to buy a 27” imac. I got it for a steal.

google hackintosh. Do that instead, have better performance than a mac. Unless you enjoy buying into hype and paying a couple thousand over what it's worth.
