You might get more if you part is out then sell it as a whole.

Issue is that your CPU while not bad is dated (2 gens behind and a new i3 is equivalent in power) maybe 100 bucks at most or 130-150ish if you sell it with the Mobo and cooler

Your GPU while not bad is only slightly better then a 1050ti and get smoked by a 1060. 120-130$ although maybe higher since GPU prices are crazy with bitcoin miners so look around on ebay and check prices

Depending on the RAM speed and if they are a matching set you could probably get a decent amount with how RAM prices are right now. You'd have to see how much they are going for new right now and maybe cut the price by 30-60% for used

PSUs dont sell for alot since most buildings don't roll the...

PSUs dont sell for alot since most buildings don't roll the chance with a used PSU with unknown history

SSDs are super cheap used right now so maybe 30-50 bucks

Case is faily low end so maybe 10-20 used

HDD not worth much since its a low capacity and a new 1TB is 50 bucks

Actually it's more the issue that people just don't buy full systems on eBay if you're not a serious reseller. I definitely agree that you will get more for your money if you spec out the parts individually and sell those. You will get even more if you have the boxes for them.
