    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 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?

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

    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.

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

    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.

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