Well it is a bid old now, but I'd figure you might get $300 out of it. At $500 you could build a faster modern system, so you need to keep some space between the two.

True, those parts are pretty old. Haven't seen a 9800gt in a long time. $275, $300 tops. You can list it for whatever you like, whether someone buys it for a good price or not it will boil down to what people are willing to pay for it. It may not be a great value at $350 and someone may buy it or it might not sell for $250. Just depends.

Start it out at 375 and then drop the price a bit.

Not a bad suggestion. The three of us who have commented so far have given it the same evaluation. $300 really seems about right, but given how old it is, you don't have a lot of risk setting the price a bit higher and letting it sit a few weeks, then lowering the price as needed. So do what he said if you are selling online, put it up for $375. Then drop the price $50 every two or three weeks until you hit the bottom amount you are willing to sell it for. I'm sure someone on a tight budget would love to buy it for somewhere in that $275-$375 range, you just got to hope the right person comes along.

Another idea you could try if it doesn't go well, you might try to sell the system for $200-$275 without the GPU, then sell the GPU separate. The GPU isn't worth much, but again someone on a budget might pick up the rest of the parts, toss in a faster $80 GPU and have a reasonably fast budget gaming system. The CPU still has a decent amount of life in it, just the GPU is really past its prime.
