I've been ugrading my pc since I first put it together and now find myself with pretty much an entire extra computer. I did some price checking to see what it'd be worth selling it for. I'm looking for some advice because I don't want to gouge anyone but I'd also like to get as much as possible. Anyway, here's the list:
-Gigabyte z170 mx Gaming 5
-i7-6700k
-EVGA 1070 SC Black
-EVGA 700W Bronze
-G.Skill Ripsaw 16GB (2x8gb)
-Samsung 850 Evo 250GB SSD
-Seagate Barracude 5tb 2.5" HDD
-be quiet! Pure rock slim cpu cooler
That's all stuff into a 40$(cad) Azza case along with a dvd tray and an asus wireless card, worth about 40-50$

Thanks in advance!

The $700 estimate seems realistic...at least $350 of that is the GTX1070 alone, easily...

An OC'd 6700K still 'holds it's own' in most games, as does the 7700K...; once streaming is thrown in, however, it is, of course, 'thread challenged'!

No worries. I build and flip a lot of PC's. I use PC part picker to mange my inventory and builds. I whipped that up in a couple of minutes. You might do a little better being in Canada. I know PC parts cost a bit more up there. I based that pricing on what I've bought most of those parts (or similar) for used. I'd probably get less than $700 for that build in my area. I'd be looking to part that out if it were me. Cosmetics sell used PC's. If you want to sell faster for more money put that stuff in a nice looking case with cheap RGB fans.

Definitely going to keep the cosmetics tip in mind. I do have two red led fans on the case which compliment the red highlights against the black case. I'm considering throwing my kraken x42 into it or even putting it all into my current thermaltake view 27 case and selling it like that, it'll definitely be more visually appealing.
Anyway, again, thanks for the tips!
