    Ive got a OCZ GameXstream 600W that im swapping out for a different PSU, what would it be worth if i sell?

    I've got it since the summer, more or less, havent really been stressing it at all (dunno if that matters? Not much time for gaming since the summer).
    I did swap the fan for a papst (voiding warranty im affraid) but have put the original one back in at the weekend (it was the loudest part in my pc).

    I'd be interested in buying it, if the price is right anyway jozi. Give me a shout if you decide to sell.

    I might be selling my XFX PCI-express 6800GT 256MB
    and
    BeQuiet PSU 400W (god I love this PSU. Best piece of kit I ever bought. Weirdly nostalgic about it.)

    Any thoughts on suggested price?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,105 ✭✭✭Explosive_Cornflake


    Same advice on your PSU, might be interested. Need something quiet to run a Northwood 2.8 and 9800PRO, both passive.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 37,485 Mod ✭✭✭✭Khannie


    It'll easily power that. Currently looking after 3800+ x2 @ 2.4, 4 sata drives and a 6800GT (+usual crap) without a bother (it may be a 430W one...can't remember exactly). More likely today that I'll sell it but hang on to the gfx card for the time being.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,728 ✭✭✭dazftw


    I know I should post this in the "how much is my pc worth forum" but I did and got no answers so I said I would post it in here!

    1024MB PC 3200 DDR
    Nivida 6200 256MB

    Ok Cool, Anyone want to give a second opinion so i can get average of prices?


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,918 ✭✭✭Steffano2002


    I would have said around €350 EUR myself... €400 EUR if the person buying doesn't have a clue ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    As steffano said above if the person hasn't a clue you'd get that but realistically, its worth about 250-300 at most.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,212 ✭✭✭✭Tom Dunne


    I feel like I am on e-Bay.

    €250 for somebody computer literate, €300 tops for customers of the Buy and Sell. :)

    Guys I have this laptop, and thinking of selling it to a family member - I have upgraded the ram to 1.25 gb's. It's out of warranty but working perfectly. I really dont know what to charge, these were expensive back in the day, but the price of 17" laptops now has come down a lot, thanks for any responces


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie


    anyone ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 640 ✭✭✭vigos


    well there's one on ebay going for 320 euros at the moment with four days to go so I'd say somewhere in the region of 400-500 it will probably end up going for.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,879 ✭✭✭heggie


    yeh thanks saw the ebay one, just if i'm gonna sell this it'll be before the action ends. the fact of postage etc on ebay, is 550/600 a fair price ?

    Not really worth much as it is old now. So about 300 at the absolute max.
