how much is my rig worth now?

i changed some internal fans and added a special ultra quiet gpu cooler and also using the hyper 212+. My computer is quiet even when running on full power. I wouldn't sell my machine for less than $900. my loudest component is my dvd drive when i am using it.fishing666

Ummmm... Are you actually attempting to sell it? Because you can't honestly expect to go into the market and sell your year old pc for only 300$ less than its original price :?

But, you definitely couldn't make that pc for 500$ as swehunt says, the i5 and motherboard alone would probably take up like 400$ of that... lol. Sadly, that's how the used market works! You can push for 500 if you go on ebay or something?

Yeah, I'd say $450. Sorry man but you should never buy a PC with the intentions of selling it. Its not like gold or firearms, tech holds no value.

PSU worth $30

SSD worth $40

GPU worth $60

CPU worth $50

MB worth $45

Case worth $50

HDD worth $40

Windows is a freebe

= $315

Would you pay up $500 for that? -no way!

no, the cpu should be 80 since its an i5 and oc's well. so around 400 for everything sounds right. i agree that tech loses value very quickly, so dont buy a computer if thats important for you. On the bright side, getting a computer nowadays is much cheaper than wat it used to be. If I were you id sell the dual core and look for the 750/760 or the i7 870 on local ads. sell the video card and upgrade to something else. that way you maximize ur investment.

custom built PC should increase the value if sold as one thing. But not seperately ;p
