Hey Guys! I wanted to write a few things about it and would love to know what you think.
I want to sell my desktop because currently right now, I dont have the funds to keep maintaining it and I've been using my old laptop more which is still working and I need it to be portable.

The computer is two years old but the CPU Cooler was bought this year. I did run into a problem where the computer locked up about 3 times but then I took it to get it check by some professionals. They said it's fine the hardware is perfect but I guess there was a software problem so he just told me to refresh the computer and it worked just fine!

I was thinking of selling it for $1500 but since It locked up I'll lower it to $1100.

I've played many games with Star Wars Battlefront, Heroes of the Storm, DC Universe Online, Watchdogs. They were all at max graphics and such.

What do you guys think?

Haha dang really cause when I look at people selling their computers they are selling it about that price but mine is still newer then theirs. Why would it be that low if you dont mind me asking
 


your gpu is low end, the psu isn't recommended, and your cpu/mb are 3 generattions old now. i just picked up a 3770 new for $120. if someone offers you $600 take it and run.

why would you want to sell it though? with a gpu upgrade and a decent psu that system will max out games for the next few years.
 
@JeffTheGuy,

Your computer is worth around 600-700 USD maximum. Why?

This build is 1080 USD brand new. And it has a GTX 970 as opposed to your 760. It has Skylake as opposed to your Ivy. It will provide double the frames of your build. It has a top-notch PSU and a 2 TB HDD. For another 70 - put an extra SSD in there.

The 1100 you are asking are too much, since someone can build a new system with twice the power. 1500 is just plain ridiculous.
 


the GPU is not "low end"...its lower mid-range. either way its still basically a gtx 660ti which is 3 generations old now. your cpu is 3 generations old now as well, and the thing doesn't have a hard drive. you say you see people selling theirs for more than $600 but how many ACTUALLY make a sale? you'd be lucky to get $600. and thats not saying it's a bad computer, because its actually quite fast. the thing that makes it not worth much is that it's used. you could build that computer NEW for probably $700-$800.
