How much would this PC be worth

[Flisker]

Hey by rough estimates how much do you think my current PC would be worth?

Thanks in advance

I'd give you £300.

Chris,

don't make a stupid move and sell it for a Mac. You'd regret it.

[Flisker]

I'd give you £300.
And i'd decline that. £300? must be joking, it's not even 6 months old.


Chris,

Wow news travels fast :S How did you find out about that?

Brand New? Id say £420 (Accurate pricing of Parts)

Used? £350 MAX (this would be near impossible to get since people will just pay that little bit more for a brand new pc)

Realistically id be looking at under £300.

Took a guess.

When I was going for my computer people were telling me I'd get around £450, my PC is far far better than that.

We have almost the same specs?

It would cost around £500 to build that new without an OS, so possibly £400 at the most second hand.

Problem with hardware once it's second hand is the value vanishes, similar to when you buy a new car and drive it off the forecourt for it to automatically loose upto £2k off the price you paid.

With mixing and matching suppliers I could build a similar spec PC minus windows for £250 to £270.

Also, what does it look like? that determines the price also if it's a cheap looking or cheap case the price plummets.

No you couldn't.

Sorry, was thinking of another thread, but the same applies just without the "far better specs bit" :P

[GeekSRV]

No you couldn't.

Clearly your using the wrong suppliers when building PC's :eusa_danc

Trust me you could not.

A Q6600 is at least £150 on it's own and the graphics card is at least £95. That's more combined than what you said for the whole lot.

Even if you get the parts at wholesale prices and without any VAT it's going to be around £300.
