Well im considering selling my tower soon to get a laptop for school. I was wondering how much i could get for my current rig. the specs are:


Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo e6750- Ive had it overclocked to 3.3ghz since ive had it but temps were 20-28C idle depending on room temp and 35-50C under load depending on room temp and i didnt have to adjust the voltage.

Motherboard: Asus P5E X38 motherboard.

RAM: OCZ DDR2-800 - I slightly overclocked them to 830mhz and they ran fine, memtested and passed.

VideoCard: Asus EAH Radeon 4850-This is the one with the regular cooler on it. It runs a little hot for my liking but it stays under the 105C the cards rated for. i clean it out when i notice idle temps are higher than normal. I also run the fan speed at 100% most of the time to keep it cool. I overclocked this using CCC just for benchmarking purposes and when i was done i put it back to standard speeds.

PSU: Rosewill 750 watt

Case: Raidmax Sagatta- The case come with a dent in the top but the overall paint job is good, I have replaced the stock fans with better ones and installed a fan controller. The 120mm fan in the front needs replaced or moved it makes a noise so i keep it off most of the time, i just didnt want to remove the front cover again to get the fan working. Will probably fix that if i decide to sell this pc as i will go ahead and remove everything and clean all the parts up and reassemble before selling

HDD: 160GB Wester Digital Cavier with 8mb cache

I want to keep my os, so the computer will come with a formatted hdd ready to install you os of choice. I do have the motherboard driver cd that will be included as well.

CD-Drive: I believe its an optaric cd/dvd burner i dont know the specs exactly.

CPU Cooler- Zalman 8700-This heatsink is awesome and keeps temps low. Comes with its own fan controller installed on the case.


This computer is not for sale yet i just want to get it appraised to see if i can afford to get the laptop i want.
 
If your fingers aren't too large, I'd just get a small netbook for cheep and keep the desktop. I've carried a heavy laptop around campus for a few years now and the day I got a netbook I couldn't have been happier. If your plan truely is to get rid of that good computer for a laptop... ehhh

Just keep the desktop and get a netbook. Your back will thank you and you'll still have a nice rig for games. You can always remote desktop into your Desktop to use things that you need while on campus.
 
i know i might do that but i still kinda wanna see what my rig is worth. i still might sell it but idk yet.
 
ok thats about what i was planning selling if i need to. I just ordered my netbook, so it should arrive fridayish.
