How Much Should I sell my System for?

[raginggoat]

I am wanting to sell my complete gaming setup but I'm not sure how much to ask for it. Here are the specs:

Cooler Master Cosmos 1000 Case
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
8 GB Kingston HyperX DDR2 800 RAM (4 x 2 GB)
Two Asus GeForce 8800 GTS 640 MB graphics cards in SLI
Lite On SATA 22x DVD Burner
Lite On IDE DVD Burner
Asus Striker Extreme Motherboard
800 Watt PSU
Two 250 GB SATA Drives
500 GB SATA Drive
150 GB WD Raptor SATA Drive
200 GB SATA Drive on Thermaltake Dock
Windows 7 Ultimate
Razer Mamba Wireless/Wired Gaming Mouse
1st Generation Logitech G15 Keyboard
Dell SP2309W Monitor
Logitech 5.1 Surround Sound

I would say you would get more for that if you part it out and sell it that way. Because I would say a rough estimate in the parts in that system are worth around $850 $900 maybe more but you have to factor into it that once you install those components value depreciates about 30% and sometimes even more. Considering you can buy a new system with lets say an I5 or a Phenom II for around the same price.

+1^, i completely agree, also, ditch the IDE DVD burner, nowadays, IDE drives scare people away...
