Hey. I'm going to be selling my old computer parts which i have replaced with new ones. They are all in the 2007/08 generation. Except the drive and storage.

Here is what i have.
eVGA Geforce 7050 610i - 775
1GB DDR2 5300
Geforce 8600 GTS OC
400W PSU
DVD-ROM - IDE
2x 80GB HDD - IDE

I have it all in a fairly good looking case right now. I don't have an extra CPU.

So i replaced the 7050 with a new board that supports faster FSB, RAM, and PCIe 2.0. Its been used for a year. Taken good care of.

8600 is still in my PC now. Been overclocked. On its 2nd year.

The HDD, DVD, PSU, & RAM was salvaged from a working PC.

i am thinking around $250. That also includes a OEM Win XP Pro sticker. I will also appreciate price suggestions.

Now the MB only has one IDE slot. So would it be best to include two HDD on one HDD and one DVD?

And would it be more profitable if i bought a $20 single core CPU and install XP?

I'd like some money to but a new video card. Thanks

You would be better off selling the pc in component form as you will probably get more money that way.

If the motherboard only has 1 x IDE socket then Im guessing that there are several SATA sockets - which are faster anyway :)
