    Its what it you can get for for it considering there are far better CPUs for cheaper these days. Assuming they can get one. I don't really follow the market. You can check on adverts for prices.

    PC is about 350-600

    Graphics card about 300-400

    That's my 2 cents. Others might have a more accurate estimate.

    Rough estimate is good enough for me. Adverts is no help, my vga and cpu are not commonly advertised.

    So €800 should be a fair price then for the whole setup

    Prices are mad at three moment due to all the shortages. You might get more than the sum of its parts. I wasn't including the monitor.

    The aim would be to sell to someone who doesn't know much about computers and wants something that isn't 2k from Dell for little Johnny to play Fortnite or whatever.
