    ballpark figure would be nice

    100 +/- 50 maybe.
    I'd struggle to see any demand for it though, so you'd probably end up selling whatever parts you could - for a lot less

    Built a computer and going to sell it looking for a idea on price now may be just the base unit

    Amd 8350

    4gb of ram

    Windows 8.1 ( i may be able to dual boot to hackintosh aswell)

    amd 6950 2gb card

    blu ray drive


    Looking for a price on that thanks. Now there may be some other stuff i can do for that system for starters could have a keyboard and mouse and a tv (with a vga input) and i do have a amd 270x i was going to sell so could put it into the computer.


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


    About 400, with another 4gb ram and the 270x you could probably get 600.

    Ebay, because any shop that buys anything would only buy it for a price where they could sell it for a decent profit.

    Thinking of selling my GPU for an upgrade .
    What would be a reasonable price to sell a 3GB XFX HD7950 ?
    Cheers

    I would be happy to get about 120-130 for it. The R9 280 which is more or less the same card can be had new for about 190 now.

    Hi Guys,
    Looking to see what I might be able to get if I put my home server up for sale. I built this in November 2012 but its gotten very little usage as I moved and didnt have the room for it afterwards so its been unplugged since around the same time. Specs are as follows.

    SuperMicro X9SCM-F Board
    Intel Xeon E3-1230 v2 3.3GHz
    16GB ECC RAM (4x4GB DDR3-1333)
    HP Smart Array P410 256MB cache
    HP SAS Expander 24 Port
    X-Case RM 424 - 24 Hotswap Bay 6GB Mini SAS (SATA/SAS Backplane) - Rail Kit included
    20 x 2TB drives.
    Windows 2012 Server R2


    Any advice appreciated.

    I Have an older pc sitting around and have decided to sell on as it has been sitting unused for well over a year and a bit.
    This is more to find an average impartial price as I don't want to overcharge anyone or lose out.

    Specs are:

    Asus P5Q deluxe motherboard
    Intel Q9550 E0 stepping(never got around to overclocking it though)
    Noctua nh-d14(possibly included, was in this system until I built a new one, thinking of upgrading current system)
    Kingston value ram 2x2gb 800mhz
    Sapphire Radeon HD6870 1gb
    XFX pro 750w semi-modular power supply
    Fractal R3 case
    No Hdd although I could pop a mechanical in there if needs be.


    Any help at all would be very much appreciated!

  • Moderators, Sports Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 24,053 Mod ✭✭✭✭Clareman


    Mobo?

    I don't know to be honest, it's an Alienware Area 51 desktop and the mobo would be the original, I can run a full spec on it later if needed.

    Even though the motherboard and processor are a bit out of date the drives and graphics cards are worth a bit

    I sold my system on adverts for £300 and that was a amd 8350 with 6gb of ram and a 250gb harddrive and two 6950 in crossfire

    If it is two 680s you have then i reckon could get 500 to 600 euro


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,906 ✭✭✭Joeface

    Yeah, it's 2 680's in SLI, I didn't think it was only worth that amount :( I'll have to rethink what to do with it now

    You would probably make more by splitting it up to be honest. Alienwares never hold their value because there generally overpriced for what they are in the beginning.
    You could probably get 350-400 for the gfx cards.
    200 for mobo, cpu and ram
    70 ish for the ssd and about 50-60 for each of the 3TB drives.
    Then the case could go for upto 50 quid maybe.

    It all depends how comfortable youd be splitting it and waiting a few weeks to get rid of everything...

    I got the system in exchange for a body of work I did for a company so it didn't really cost me anything, at the time I think it was valued at nearly 7 grand (it includes a 27" monitor and logitech G19), I'd nearly be happier giving it to a nephew than selling it for that amount.

    Thanks though, I really appreciate the feedback.

    Laptop:
    Compaq 615
    AMD Athlon X2 (2.1GHz I think)
    Ati graphics card
    15,6 inch 1366x768 screen
    4GB ram
    128GB A-data premier SSD
    HDD-Caddy (replaces dvd with extra harddisk up to 1TB)
    Working accu

    Laptop works without any problems

    The truth is that it's an old PC and the cards are much faster than the processor/machine core is. They could be taken over to a new build. It would never have cost remotely close to 7K though to be honest!

    You could build a much faster up to date modern machine for about 800.

    Hey guys, looking to get a price on my current music rig as im looking to move over to a laptop for college.

    Specs are as follows.


    Fractal Design Core 1000 Series Micro ATX Case - Black Pearl

    Intel Core i5 4570 Quad Core CPU

    Arctic Cooling Freezer 13 CPU Cooler

    Case fans have been swapped for Fractal Design Silent Series fans.

    8GB Corsair Vengance DDR3 1600Mhz Ram

    1TB Hitachi Hard disk

    3.5" All in one card reader.

    PCI express Firewire Card
