nice system ,must have cost you a bundle new,you would be lucky to get half that unless you split it and sell.

Really? It cost me around £1500 u reckon id only get half! I just checked on amazon how much all the parts would cost new and it comes it comes to about £1300 its only just over a year old lol!! I thought it must be worth a grand

You bought the kit and got the warranties that came with it, whoever buys it off you might not. Another issue is that you can't show how well any of that kit was treated. For instance, that CPU was very popular for overclocking, any buyer would be taking quite a gamble with regards to future performance and reliability. Same goes for the motherboard, memory, CPU, etc. How much have you stressed that kit? You can't really show that.

I think it's better if you sell it in parts, you'll get more moneyzzz

[1rohit]

Thanks i might try that! Or i might just keep it as itll be a hassle taking everything apart one by one and selling it

[1rohit]

Oh ok thanks for the reply its never been overclocked as its always been quick enough for what ive needed to do! It was my first ever build and its in mint condition i see what ur saying about warranties etc that does make quite a difference!

[GoNz0]

due to it being your 1st build and overclocked no one here would give anything near what you think its worth.

fator in over 1 year old and total would be about £500

year old is outdated now

I said its never been overclocked ermmmm i guess ill keep it then theres no way anyone could build a pc at this spec with these quality parts for 500 quid i guess its better to keep it lol!!

[GoNz0]

sorry i misread that!

anyway if you can get 4ghz out that i7 its got a couple of years left in it!

just upgrade to a better video card if you game on it as the 280's not up to much compared to a 480/580

Cheers for the reply just checked ur system spec its wicked! U should post some more pics of it!

[GoNz0]

its not really a show pc, i wanted a games rig that ran cool and very quiet when i am sat doing none gaming internet stuff

That looks cool must've been expensive i like the water-cooling! Ive always thought about overclocking but i doubt there's much u can do on air cooling, my rooms quite hot at times so my idle temps are about 35 degrees doubt overclocking would be a good idea lol!!

[GoNz0]

its more to do with getting the heat away from the cpu better and having a huge surface area to dissapte the heat.

your case is geared toward water cooling anyway

Like the others, I think your best bet is to strip it all down and list the individual components on eBay. It's likely you won't see an awful lot of that £1500 back otherwise.
