    This is just a quick guess, my brain tells me somewhere in the region of £150 to £200.

    I would try to sell in separately, on ebay or on this forum. However selling on ebay will mean that you will end up with less money due to ebay and paypal fees.

    Off-topic quickly, does that sound proofing stuff make much of a difference?
    Could you post some pics?

    I'd go whack an advert in your local paper or the like...

    You could probably sell the whole system for £250 to someone who just wants a PC that works...

    Re: How much for my rig and where?

    Don't try to sell a system with a Hiper PSU here. You're lucky it hasn't blown up already. On the good side it probably means you don't run the machine that many hours a day...

    Unless you want to play new games it will cope with most tasks, and most people don't realise how naff the Hiper is, so you *might* get a decent price on Fleabay. No guarantee these days, as it's flooded with dodgy firms and chancers, so sometimes honest gear doesn't fetch what it should. Local selling is only for stuff you'd otherwise throw away IMO.

    I'm not sure about that.

    I live in a city so I guess lots of people see my adds...

    But when I sell a PC I often get more than it's eBay value is and you don't have to mess about with shipping.

    And at the end of the day, if it don't sell you aint lost anything, you can still whack it on eBay...
