What is my used computer worth approximately?

In My Humble Opinion (IMHO)
#1

I am looking to sell my current computer to a friend. I want to give him a good deal on it but I don’t really have any idea of how much it is worth these days. Any ballpark estimates on what this comp is worth? It’s a little over 2 years old with the following specs:

INTEL i7-940 2.93GHZ QUAD
ATI RADOEN 4870X2 2GB
6 GB DDR3-1600 MEMORY
Samsung T260 25.5-INCH LCD MONITOR
1TB SATA II 7200RPM HD
MSI X58 PLATINUM CROSSFIRE MOTHERBOARD
HERCULES 2.1 SPEAKERS
ASETEK 120MM WATERCOOLER
APEVIA X-SNIPERG MID TOWER CASE
COOLERMASTER 1000W REAL POWER PRO
SAMSUNG 22X LIGHTSCRIBE DVDRW
VISTA HOME PREMIUM 64BIT

$1000~ (not including friend discount is reasonable) is reason, I think. That’s assuming everything is working.

#3

I’ve gotta ask-what are you upgrading to?

#4

I’m guessing either something that could open the pod bay doors, or a holodeck.

#5

Yeah really. Were i7’s even available 2 years ago? :dubious:

#6

How much porn is pre-installed?

#7

$1000-$1300 sounds good, that’s a beefy machine and monitor. Although I’d give a $500 discount for having Vista on there :smiley:

Any idea what you paid for it?

#8

I was thinking the same thing, but according to Wiki the 940 was part of the intial launch in Nov '98.

#9

Yes, the i7-940 was released in November 2008.

'98?! You’re going to feel really, really old when you come back and notice your mistake.

#11

If you overclock them sufficiently, they can go back in time.

Sorry for bringing back a dormant thread, but I just saw this, and I’m laughing my ass off right now.

Yes, I feel old, but it has nothing to do with typos.
