    Price Check: Core i7 2600k OEM CPU!

    Hi folks,

    Any idea what this is worth?

    Have had it a while, not been OC'd by myself, overkill from the looks of it, hence I've decided its got to go!

    I'll be downgrading!

    Thanks.

    roughly 140 to 170, depending on age.

    Seems a tad low given these still go for £230 plus, might keep it instead.

    Thanks.

    Would £195 be realistic?

    If not, what about a Core i5 2400 - £105 on it possible?

    I had to buy a second one to prove that a board was faulty, which I'm now looking to move on. Discussions on other forums have advised around the £180 mark, which have received a little interest, but nothing more, so really I'm just saying that the price of 100 to 170, while low, is not that unreasonable.

    Dissappointing, but not unreasonable.
