As the title say, here the spec:

CASE: CM HAF X (I think I'm keeping this)
POWER SUPPLY: Corsair AX760W 80+ Platinum
MOTHERBOARD: Asus P8Z77D-V Deluxe
CPU: Intel i7 3770K 3,5Ghz
RAM: 2*4GB Corsair Vengeance Low Profile Red DDR3 1866 Mhz CL9
VGA: AMD R9 280X Club3D 3GB
SOUND CARD: Asus Xonar DGX 5.1
HARD DISK OS: Samsung 840 Pro 128GB
HARD DISK APP: Western Digital Caviar RE3 320 GB X2 Raid0
MONITOR: Samsung P2470H 24" 2ms

I'm thinking about getting a full new pc and wondering how much my old one is worth and if it's worth getting a new one

As much as somebody is prepared to pay.

Shipping a completed system is tough/expensive, so you're limited to a local(ish) sale complete.... or parting the system out to sell components online.

An i7-3770K Combo with a board & 8GB looks to sell for ~$250 USD on eBay.
An R9 280X sells for $100-$125 pretty frequently.

Used HDDs/SSDs and PSUs typically aren't worth too much use.

A 3770K is still a totally viable CPU for gaming etc..... really depends on your workload.

A GPU upgrade would probably be where I'd start if you want something "new".

I agree. Pick yourself up a new GPU and see how it goes. You can always decide on upgrading the rest of the system after that point.

Hard to recommend anyone picking up a DDR3 system at this point when they can get an entry level 8th gen or Ryzen system for not a lot more.
