How much is my PC worth?

[Air194]

My pc is about half a year old and still in great condition. Wanting to sell it due to me being addicted to building pc's and wanting to build a new one.

Specs:

i7-4790 (non k)
MSI Z97 PC Mate
MSI GTX 970
8GB G.Skill 1866 DDR3 RAM
1TB HDD
EVGA 850w GQ
NZXT h440

if I was to buy everything myself brand new it would cost me;

i7-4790 (non k) 308.00, MSI Z97 PC Mate 99.00, MSI GTX 970 (assuming 4gb) 370.00, 8GB G.Skill 1866 DDR 3 RAM 59.00, 1TB HDD (assuming sata Blue) 54.00, EVGA 850w GQ 125.00, NZXT h440 119.00.

so brand new I could rebuild your pc for 1134$ USD

-- the following will sound like a critic, but is not, it is meant as a learning tool as many of us build boxes -

but if I was to build the "box" you did
I would of spent 338$ 170+on a I7 K version instead
I would of spent 170. pn a ASUS Sabertooth Mark 1 Intel Z97 Motherboard instead
I would of spent 265. on an EVGA GeForce GTX 970 Superclocked 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 Graphics
I would of spent 149 Patriot DDR3 32GB 1866MHz (4X8GB) Viper 3 Quad Channel Memory
I would of spent 79. on a Toshiba Q Series Pro HDTS325XZSTA 2.5" 256GB Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
I would of spent 66. on a WD Desktop Performance 1TB Hard Drive
I would of spent 99. on a EVGA 750 GQ Power Supply
I would of spent 44. on a Enermax Ostrog Black with White Trim PC Computer Case
and would of ended paying 1,210$ (still new)

-- this will sound like a critic and it is not meant that way, --
-- but a personal comment about reality of building and selling a pc --

resalable price if what you can get for a build. if you asked for retail price value of your pc I would not look at it, because I can buy one of my own making with much additional items on it, be faster, and a better pc for about the same price as your build.

Can you sell your PC for 1000$ sure, but how long will it take?

One thing I'll throw out there... although you might not be guaranteed to sell every single piece, parting out the build will reliably get you higher prices and quicker sales.

I'd say about $650 to $700 in used condition.
