You'd likely get more takers (or at least offers) if you do not exceed that psychological barrier of '4 digits', but, feel free to list it for what you feel is fair in your area...; don't be offended, but, prices in $600-$700 might seem more 'good deal' to the prospective buyer

(IMO, you'd likely need to undercut the cost of a new R5-1600 rig by at least $100-$200 if possible, so you might as well remove most of your WLAN card, case fans, and LED lights, if possible)

If you still intend to game after this sale, your best bet might be to simply upgrade to a GTX1060, as your current rig is not really 'slow' yet....

Good luck

Why do you want to sell it? If you bought an SSD, upgraded the PSU and, assuming you play games, upgraded the GPU, then you'd have a fantastic build.

Thanks for the help guys. I want to sell it because:
1. Hard drive is buggered (Bloody seagate)
2. I really want a new case as my current one is starting to become a hassle and...
3. A bit of fun and adventure
