Rigs price estimation, seeking evaluation.

[Smart_Guy]

Hello guys.

I have two computers I might sell and I'd like to know your price estimation for them. Here they are:

The Mini Hummer:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 2.4GHz
Motherboard: GA-G31M-ES2C
RAM: Kingstone KVR667D2N5/1G x2 DDR2 667MHz
HDD: 80GB (OS) + 320GB (Data)
PSU: Gigabyte GE-R460-V1 460W
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 6450 Silent
Case: a generic well made mini tower case with no fans
Optical Drive: Creative RVR-ROM (not working)

My estimation for this one is $100 USD

The Predator:
Motherboard: MSI P55-GD80
CPU: Intel Core i5 750
Video card: GTX 480 (you won't believe how well this plays new games)
PSU: Gigabyte GZ-EMS65A-C1 650W
RAM: Kingston Hyperx DDR3 T1 1600Mhz
Optical Drive: LG Super Multi DVD Multi Recorder RW DVD+R DL
Storage: 500GB WD HDD
Case: Aero Cool XPredator X1

And for this one, it is $420 USD

Do you think my price tags feel good? I searched online for the prices and got them from used parts selling websites including (mainly) Amazon and EBay.

The Predator actually has 2 500GB HDD's. Editing time has expired.

Your pricing is good and very reasonable given the age of the parts of both systems. I often look on eBay and Gumtree and wonder how people expect to sell a laptop or desktop that may still perform well but is 3-4 years old and have a hefty price tag on it and the prices just doesn't seem to be realistic.

 

[Smart_Guy]

Thanks man.

I guess some people look at the value of manufacturing and ignore the value of age. Technology, specially if outdated, loses value with time as better technology comes out. I think the budget GTX 1050 performs better than the then standard high-end GTX 480 although it requires much less powerful PSU, gives less heat and noise, takes less space, etc. is a good example of what I mean.

 

[Smart_Guy]

Oh, the Predator has 8GB RAM (4+4).

I'd donate them to a local school or club or the goodwill store (or it's equivalent there) or give them to family members with no computer, they are better than nothing...sort of.

 

[Smart_Guy]

Actually, two of them already got new homes with relatives who agreed to help me free some space in my room. I own like 6 computers total, including these two and the two main desktop and laptop. Two used by me, two given to family and the above two remaining. It's a good idea to donate them even tho there are no options I know of, knowing where I live. Gotta do some search for that.

Haha, I managed to overclock the Mini Hummer to 3GHz on a modified stock cooler. It has a crazy potential to go much higher if not for the stupid DDR2 667MHz. I don't wanna overclock memory over the rated speed.
