I have a spare PC and I plan to sell it. What would be a fair price (in USA)? it has:
This is a decent non-gaming and non-hardcore CPU work PC. The only negative is the graphics can't do more than 2048x1536, so it wouldn't work on a 4K TV. I'm pretty sure someone who buys a PC like that.
the only comparables i found are refurbished HP/Dell PCs with DDR 3 (only 8GB) with Core2Duo CPus and no SSD. so not really comparable.
Would it be better to part it out and sell the parts? I'm afraid that someone who buys a mobo-CPU-RAM combo and is able to install it, isn't the person who would buy such old stuff. I never sold parts, but also think with a complete PC it is easier to show the buyer that everything works. with just parts, that may be hard. I only had sold PCs to relatives or friends int he past, so there wasn't the problem that I was a stranger they wouldn't trust. It looks like these days the PSU would be the most expensive part.
I could have a need for just the SSD and keep it and just sell it with the HDD. Would that make any difference in price?
- Fractal Design core 1100 case with 120mm front fan
- 400W OCZ 400MXSP PSU (80+)

- 16 GB DDR3 1600
- 256 GB Samsung EVO 850 SATA SSD

- no graphics card
- I also could throw in a 2TB HGST 7200 HDD that I don't need if that increases the price.
