    Price Check

    Thinking of upgrading my rig to a cheap C2D system as ram is ultra cheap atm and wondering if i could get some estimates on my current hardware. Prices in brackets are my guess

    Opteron 175 (50-60)

    2x1Gb DDR400 corsair value matched pair (20-30)

    Asus A8N 32-sli deluxe (30-40)

    Big typhoon cooler (5-10)

    Plz dont give offers as such as im not completely sure i want to move on atm, just considering it.

    Re: Price Check

    I reckon you could easily get £40 for the ram and possibly £50 for the motherboard.

    Re: Price Check

    I'd say the same about the motherboard.. 50 quid inc deliv seems like a decent price for an extinct socket type..

    The chip would probably go like 60-70 yes.. I sold my 4600+ for 55inc..

    RAM.. hit and miss really.. its VS range so value would come in mind to the buyer.. I'd say 35-40inc on best scenario.. I sold my premium set of PC4000 for 60..

    Big T will probably go for a tenner inc..
    Me want Ultrabook

    Re: Price Check

    I reckon about £25ish as it is the full x-fi. Probably a little more if it's retail, i'm assuming it's oem.
