    Hi,

    I'm looking to build a new rig and sell on my old one as a complete system to maximise the money I can get from selling it. Below is my current set up that I would be looking to sell but can't quite decide on how much is reasonable to sell it for, any advice?

    CPU: Q6600 (OC'd to 3.0GHz)
    RAM: 4GB Corsair TWIN 2X 4096 DDR2
    GPU: 512Mb ATI HD 4870
    Mobo: ABit IX38 Quad GT
    HDD: 3 seperate 7200rpm HDDs, WD 640GB 6400AAKS/WD 320GB/Seagate 160GB
    PSU: Corsair Modular HX 620W
    Case: Antec P182
    Fans: 5x Noctua NF-P12 & Scythe Kama Bay Fan
    CPU Cooler: Thermaltake Ultra-120 eXtreme
    OS: Windows Vista Home Premium 64 Bit

    For the new build I pretty much have 3 time windows in which I could buy stuff (crazy work schedule).
    1) Right now
    2) End April - Mid June
    3) In Mid September
    I haven't kept up with new components over about the past 4 years so have lost touch with what's on the horizon and what's good now, which time window would you guys suggest? I would be looking to buy everything except a GPU (have a GTX 270 available) with the emphasis on a speedy gaming rig.

    Thanks,

    iKiX

    I believe this is against the forum rules, once you have I think 75 posts and been a member for over a month or 3 months you gain access to the marketplace where you can do price checks and sell things.

    Don't know pricing but go check out ebay listings to get a rough idea?

    I'm not looking to sell it on these forums I was just wondering what a reasonable ball park figure is for such a system.
