Selling my second PC to a friend who needs a new comp. Spec is: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz (he doesn't want it overclocked AT ALL) Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro 2GB HD7770 Seagate 1TB HDD 4GB 1066MHz RAM 5-5-5-15 Asus P5K Premium Motherboard Asus PCIE x1 Wi-Fi Network card (as on board wifi does not work with Windows 8) 800W Tagan 80+ Gold PSU (complete overkill I know) Windows 8.1 64 Bit Microsoft Keyboard Razer 4000dpi mouse Selling all this to him for £200 which I think is a good deal for all of this. He is a good friend though and don't want to over charge him, but I do need the money. What would you buy this for? (ps I am not selling it on here)
Yea the GPU alone cost me around £70 brand new off ebay. It is a decent rig and all he really wants it for is Age Of Empires HD, Counter Strike GO, and watching movies/surfing the net.
He really ought to consider a SSD. My rig chugs when I start opening more than a few tabs at a time. Processor maxes out and I can tell the drive is holding it back, but I guess for a super budget rig it'll work. As for the price, I'll be happy if I get $20 for my Antec 1200 after shipping let alone the rig :nerd:
Yea I think you're both getting a fair deal on it, not many people sell machines that come with absolutely everything needed to just plug n play like that, even KB & M
Yea and a copy of Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit as well! For £200 I think its a very fair deal, just want a few second opinions as I don't want to rip him off and some of the stuff inside is quite old now. Also an SSD would help him out a lot as a boot drive but remember this is only a sata 2 motherboard so the performance increase would really only be in loading times. I will tell him to consider a 60GB-120GB SSD for the OS, but I don't think he wants to spend more than £200 and he doesn't even have a rig at the moment just has a PS4 for the exclusives and some third party games. I also just tested out Counter Strike Global Offensive on the rig with everything at stock speeds and it still pushes 80+fps at max details 1080p 0xAA 16xAF and Motion Blur OFF.
Yeah, you're right. That's why I'm holding out to buy one when I do everything. I want to go from toyota corolla performance all the way to mclaren performance in one second Hope your friend enjoys the rig.
I think it´s a fair price for both. Unless he wants to negotiate, then i´d shave 20/30p but not more. And i can´t believe how high i am right now.
Defo fair price. The parts themselves aren't that great these days, but not bad either and an entire system for that price, meh, good enough.
i sold my old PC to my bro which was pretty much the same as yours, q66, 4gb ram nice psu and 500gb hd ect i sold it for £200 and i have seen the same machine nearly same as those sold for £299 on facebook with a GT640 the only difference
