What is my computer worth?

[thegrizzz]

Trying to Sell my computer at the moment and want to know how much its worth.
I still have all the boxes and wondering if it would be cheaper to sell in parts rather than a whole package... thoughts?

The Spec are:

CPU : i7 4770k
GPU : Asus GTX 780 Direct II OC 3gb
RAM : 16gb Corsair
Motherboard: Asus maximas Hero VI
SSD: Samsung EVO 128gb
Hardrive: 2 TB seagate
Power Supply : Corsair RM 750
Case: Fractal Design R4
LG M disc (CD)

cheers!

I'd ask for about $600 for it. One thing you need to keep in mind about selling computers is they are so cheap now to the general market. Although you have quite a rig there, the only people that would pay you a fair price are those who know what's in it. So appeal to the techie crowd and you should be able to get about $600 for it.

You likely will have better luck parting components out over time and get more money. Like say the motherboard, CPU, and memory as a package. Then you can maybe sell the video card, power supply, and case separately. This is only if you don't get any interest selling the entire thing. If I were selling it, here's how I'd price it in components based on sellers asking prices on eBay here in the US (US dollars, so use a USD->AUD dollar conversion website):

CPU, mobo, RAM - $450
Video card - $200 (sellers are asking up to $300+, but that's insane and in brand new GTX 970 pricing territory)
PSU - $80
Case - $50

Total hypothetical: $780 when parting out. Keep in mind this is only a guideline based on the original purchase price and what the components (or similar items) are selling for now. Regarding the optical and hard drives, generally people do not like buying those used as they are so cheap anyway.

Otherwise, between $500-$600 is a fair asking price for the whole thing as one. At least some price variation will be dependent on how long you've had the items and the conditions of them (dust?). Finally, always keep in mind you need to find someone who is even in the market to buy the components...well they need to find you to be specific.

Your computer worth on the sale price will be around $500-$600.

Put it on Ebay Auction at $600 and you'll be able sell it around $700 when bidding goes well.

You could get 800$ for it. A 780 ti is right up in line with a 970, so maybe 200$ the 780 ti, the u7, 250$, ram 60$, mobo, easily 150$, SSD maybe 40$, HDD maybe 50$.
