Hey all, Im trying to sell my old PC but not really sure how much to ask for it. The specs are as follows

CPU: C2Q Q9550 @stock @stock cooler.
Mobo: Standard P35 based asus board.
RAM:4gb DDR2 800mhz.
Psu: Thermaltake 600w toughpower.
GPU: GTX 480.
Case: Asus midtower standard case.
HDD:500gb sata with win vista installed.

Includes a couple of fans, dvd rw drive etc.

So how much do you think I would be able to sell this pc for? Its to fund a new GPU for my new system, or selling it without the GPU and using the money to buy a second GTX480 for SLI in my new system is also a possibility.

Any thoughts? thanks :).

P.s I appreciate this is probably in the wrong section but don't really know where to put it :/
 
Check craigslist or ebay for similar models. It's probably worth about $400 - 500 with the video card for just the used component prices, but not a lot of people would buy a used system with those specs, they'd either buy a cheaper system or a new one, which means you have a small number of people that may want it.

The setup you have now should be pretty quick though, I wold not even bother upgrading it. If you want an upgrade, maybe just get an solid state drive for it.
