I'd say about 300 maybe...450 on buy and sell..weak cpu and gfx, memory isn't great. Again, would make a nice family computer for light use, won't do well at any newish games at all

How come you have such a powerful psu for that setup?

Striker, surely you should know by now that's the kinda stuff you aren't supposed to post here! But damn....nice pc.....:o

Dunno really, went through about 3 in the space of 6 months and got that and its been ok since, thought it would be needed for the whole twin processor thing. What about upgrading the thing? mp processors seem to be hard to find

Cheers for that by the way

I am thinking of going to America for the summer so would sell my laptop to help fund it, any ideas what it is worth?
Dell Inspiron 8600 Laptop
1.5Mhz Pentium M
512MB RAM
128MB graphics card
60GB hard drive
15.4" Widescreen with resolution of 1920x1200
Wireless LAN and bluetooth, infrared etc
DVDRW drive
It still has a full year NBD warranty on it and Complete Accidental Cover on it left.

I was thinking myself that it would be worth at least a €1000 as a similar laptop on the Dell website is €1687 and the only extras it has is the 1GB RAM and a 1.86Ghz Pentium M chip (Inspiron 6000)

If you're selling to an informed buyer, they'll point you to a 9300 on the outlet with better specs than yours for 888 + vat. So would start negotiating at 600 & reluctantly pay 700 tops.

Not quite sure what to do about hard drives and OS, seeing as i'll be taking the current hard drives out of it... i have 2 spare 40GB hard drives that i could throw into it. but i could only offer it with the linux distro of choice...
i may consider leaving the 160gb WD caviar HD in it

would appreciate any input as to how much it's worth

if a pc is overclockable it doesnt always add value, as the buyer might not want to overclock @ all, depends on who wants to buy it. Doesnt apply to systems as old as the one u posted

Damn. I currently have 4x256 ddr2 4200 and really looking for something like 2x512, or 1x1gb so that I can bring it up to 1.5 or 2gb.....it's fairly expensive new so second hand would be ideal .

Any ideas on the cheapest place to pick up some new?
