Hey everyone. Its been a while since I have been on here but I'm back and I wanted to post my computer up for sale but I need your opinions on how I should sell it.

Should I sell it whole PC like on eBay?.....or......sell it parts-wise?

Intel Core i5-750
EVGA P55 SLI Motherboard
Corsair H50 Cooling
3x Western Digital HDD's
Samusung DVD Drive
2x EVGA 8800Gt's
G.Skill 4GB RAM
2x Fans
Ultra 1000Watt PSU
Diamond Multimedia Soundcard

Thanks.:)

If you hate to see it pulled apart sell it on ebay... but i'd hate to see my computer go to some spoiled 12 year old who doesn't know a thing about maintaining a computer and bashes the keyboard when something doesn't go right from all the crapware they installed...
 
Sadly, I know you guys will probably hate me for this but im getting a mac mini which i've been planing for a while now and its because im sortta annoyed with pc's now. I do Xbox 360 gaming anyways so all i do with pc is browse the internet and that's it.


Thanks for the advice btw. :)
 
I think its a good move actualy,I have been considering the same thing as Pcs can get problematic and annoying at times.

Good luck with the sale :)

Yeah I'm annoyed how much heat comes out of it and warms my room up and the turbo-like fans don't help at all. All they do is create too much noise. I just want something quiet, small, and simple to use that i don't have to install anything on.
 
If you decide to part out, I'd be interested in the case (ATCS 840, not ATSC...?) and the mobo, but I can only buy that stuff after my job hopefully starts this summer.

Lol, yeah your right, I always get the 2 mixed up. I'm probably going to part out so I'll put you down for reserved for right now.:)
 
Without doubt parts-wise :)
You'll get alot more, the average consumer will expect competitive pricing with large companies if you're selling the whole rig. Which is Goddamn hard.
 
I voted "parts wise" simply because that's the easiest way to get rid of a computer if you use the classifieds here, and you'll get more out of it if you do it that way on eBay too. However, you should list it locally on craigslist too, and see if you get any hits. A full computer isn't worth any more than the sum of it's parts to people like us that build computers, but to the average person they're more likely to pay considerably more for a full machine, especially one geared towards gaming as yours is.
 
Well put me down for reserved now and establish a selling price. If someone is able to get you like 20$ over that price before I buy the part, go ahead and sell it to them.
