My Computer Is Now Worth $2000

My brand new 19″ LCD monitor and speakers finally brought up my new computer’s bloated worth.

Now I have a used computer that I want to sell. It’s 650MHz P3, 256MB Ram, 15GIG and some really old motherboard that I don’t think it even has a name. Along with a 5 year old case — a 17″ CRT monitor, some crappy speakers that were probably made in 1995, and all the necessary accessories that are as normal as you can get. How much is it worth?

    Wow, that’s amazing. Sounds like a nice set-up. I’m looking ’round for a laptop for school right now. *sweatdrop*

    I have no idea what that computer would be worth, but you could probably get a reasonable amount for it. ^^;;

    I hope your trip to China was good. I got back a little while ago too. ^__^;; I hope that you’ve finally adjusted to the time-difference. Hehe. I hope this comment works, the last time it didn’t go through. Hehe. u__u”

    look for the prices of the similar computers as your old one, perhaps you can decide the cost :)

    Nyaa, the comments work now. I disabled it because I really couldn’t take the spam for a month :)

    Erm that thing is worth 10cents. No one wants it, only people who steal satillite signals. so it can fry it and not his satellite. he’s prolly pay you 100$. If you find him

    Do you want to see my comp ?

    9grand.

    Comp itself is 6grand.
    AMD 64 X2 4800+ yeah.
    Geforce 7800 GT X 2. … yes X 2 … customized alienware mobo…
    4GB corsair DDR2 Ram yeah.
    Liquid Metal Cooling yeah.

    Yeah… I forgot to add that I’m prolly gonna be one of the first ones to touch those automic holographic drives…

    forgot to tell you to multiply my monitor by 2. Dual screen is the way to go.

    That computer sucks man! My bet is without the 19″ monitor the computer itself is probably around $300 those are some pretty poor specs considering you can go to Dell, HP, etc and customize a computer with higher RAM and a larger hard drive and still not break the bank at around $1000, and most of the time you can get free upgrades like LCD monitors, printers, etc.

    I bought a Dell 8400 without monitor and it cost me about $900
    P4 HT processor
    1GB RAM dual channel
    160GB HD
    windows xp home edition
    ATI X300 SE graphics
    integrated sound

    Since then I have added a stereo soundbar for speakers
    upgraded graphics to ATI X850 XT
    added a ATI TV tuner
    upgraded RAM to 2GB
    upgraded to 19″ Flat LCD ultrasharp monitor

    Still haven’t spent $2000 on it counting base price + upgrades

    If I customize one with same specs it would cost about $3000.

    so considering the lack of goodies on your computer your not going to get much for it. Safe bet sell it for $300 w/out monitor or $600 with it.

    EG that sucks. Your comp sucks seriously.
    Single INTEL processsor. Gimme a break.

    AMD 64 X2 4800 + best processor in the world atm.
    4GB corsair DDR2 ram try to beat that.

    X850XT sucks considering i have a 7800GT and

    LIQUID METAL COOLING!

    If you really want to know what someone will be willing to pay for it look at www.ebay.com , its usually pretty close to what you’d get. if all fails try linux it has less problems on older machinery.
