I dug up the fossilised remains of my previous PC and I am planning to pawn it off to my girlfriend's brother to use for work purposes and the occasional PES game. Can you recommend a price for this hunk of industrial age junk? I don't plan on milking the guy so I'm not expecting much.

Specs:
CPU: AMD 3500+
Mobo: Asus SLi
Memory: 1GB RAM
HDD: Seagate 320GB
GFX: Asus 7800GTX
DVD: Sony DVD Writer
PSU: Antec 420W
Monitor: Viewsonic 19" VX
Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse
 
Chuck in 1 more GB of ram and R5k is a very decent price. (considering you want to rip him off in good standing...)

R2250, but Id probably call it an even R2K.
 
Yikes, for 5K you could buy this

AMD Athlon II X2 240 R564
Asus M4A78 R796
2GB DDRII-800 R329
500GB-7200RPM 16MB Cache SATA II (Seagate) R453
Geforce 9800GT R990
DVD Writer 22/12x DL (SAMSUNG) SATA R199
Midi Tower Case + 350W PSU - Coolermaster - Elite Cool R478
LG 19 LCD Wide R1093
Logitech Optical Mouse R67
Microsoft Wired 500 Keyboard R112

R5081

Id say R2000 is a fair price for your rig. I wouldn't let anyone I know pay more than that :p
 
5K!? Are you guys living in the 90's? :)

I was thinking around R2000 as well.

My gf will probably be footing the bill for this anyway. Yes. That's how I roll.
 
I had a similar PC like this:

AMD 4000+ CPU
7900GTX
ASUS Deluxe Motherboard
1.5GB RAM
Creative Audigy ZS Sound Card
DVD Writer

Just didn't have a HDD. I gave it to my friend because he wanted a PC. No charge.

Karma dude. Do good things, and good things will happen. Don't always go after the money, especially if you don't need it.

Lol, my current PC is even older than this. Think AMD 2400+ 1GB RAM and 6600GT. Needless to say I game on my notebook these days and my current PC sits in a corner half the time in a powered down state :p

R1500 to R2000 sounds fair.

What is a PES game?
 
In truth - I have a pc like that lying in my cupboard :o

You said you wanted to milk him. If it was me, I'd give it to him for free ... maybe the gf pays you in kind. ;)
