Hey guys, I built a PC for a friend back in July of last year. My friend has decide to get rid of the PC because he doesn't use it as much as he though he was going to. He wants to sell it and try to make some kind of money back, if possible, if not then he's just trying to get something.

here are the specs:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4850e 2.51GHz CPU
Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe/Wireless Motherboard
G.Skill 4 X 1GB PC2-6400 DDR2 RAM
Silverstone SST-ST50EF 500-watt PSU
Seagate ST3250820AS Barracuda 250GB 8MB Cache 7000 RPM SATA HD
NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT PCI Express Video Card 512MB Video Memory
CDRW/DVD 48x Optical Drive
Gigabyte GZ-Triton180 ATX/micro ATX Case
Windows XP Professional SP3

So what do you guys thinks this setup is worth? All opinions are welcome.

Thanks!

$300-$400, that's it? I seriously thought it would be more. I mean, its pretty current technology and the system is fairly new. But if that's what you guys think, then I trust you.

It depends who your friend is planning to sell it to. If the buyer is computer illiterate, they would probably be willing to pay a lot more. Just look at the listings on Ebay, and you'll see what I mean.

But yeah, to a literate person, the estimates given seem about right...
