hi, i'm looking to sell my custom made pc but i'm not sure how much to ask here it is:

Cosmos S - case
LITE-ON 20X DVD±R DVD Burner with LightScribe
Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W
Sunbeam RHK-EX-BA Rheobus-Extreme Fan Controller
Q6600 lapped and overclocked to 3.6
True 120 black lapped
Visiontek 4870 x2
ASUS Maximus Formula - motherboard
Samsung T260 - monitor + 5 yrs warranty at best buy
3 12in fans at around 150 cfm 2 over 200cfm 😉
1TB hard drive
Logitech G15 USB Wired Standard Gaming Keyboard
Logitech MX518 mouse
i'm not planning to include windows, is that good or bad for sale (right now i have vista 64 installed)

Pls let me know what you think i can ask for this, sale will probably be on craigslist, maybe ebay. Thx

 


I will buy this for 1oo dollars from you ! this would be a very fair deal for me!
 
I still see a fair amount of people pricing systems like this @ 1000 on craigslist... but let's be real, the Q6600 is now a 3-4-5th generation quad core. Great CPU, no doubt... but I would think if somebody is going to pay that much for a computer, they'd want something new.

My thoughts on pricing :
Case : $100
PSU : $75
Ram : $50
CPU / Heatsink : $150
4870 x2 : $150 (5000 series are out!!! omg)
mobo : $100
HDD : $60
$685. I know i didn't include the dvd or fan controller... Craigslist has alot of low balling, and I prefer ebay for sales... but don't get me started..... I just found out ebay raised their fees to 4-4.5%, so between paypal and ebay you now have to pay %9 ! omfg...

so, take into consideration ebay fees, shipping, time you'd spend packing and shipping and deduct further from the price for a fair craigslist price of around $600.

or you may consider parting it out too... You have some good parts in there that maybe you'd like to use for another build? You still have the option of installing Windows 7 RC1 on there if you want, at least for demo purposes and let the person know the license runs out in march.

OHHH... didn't include the monitor... looks like it sells for $330-350 ish on ebay.

maybe $850 as a package w\ the monitor? or sell the monitor seperately.
