I would say... 500-800 bucks?? I really dont know though. I dont think it would be more than that though. It might even be less.... LOL heck why am I even typing a response!? I dont even know what I am talking about!

Well I'll give you a lil bit of help here...

Go to Ebay and find the closest thing they have there to your computer specs. Thats about how much its worth.

Well i just went on newegg.com to see ho emuch it would cost to build that system from wat you have said

my specs were:
Intel p4 3.06ghz HT (socket 775 or T)
Radeon 9250 videocard agp 8x 128mb
1Gb Corsair ram PC3200 (CAS latency 2.5)
WD HDD 80gb
DVD-R drive
CD-RW drive
soundblasterlive 7.1 soundcard

My total with shipping was $438.90

That price doen't include a windows cd. that would cost another $100

I don't really see you getting more than $500 for the PC but you might be able to if u sell it to someone who isn't very tech savy. MitaPi $800 would be way too much. lol

@Killdogg: Your price also doesn't include the psu or case.

My previous comp has similar specs ( but slightly better) and I was able to get 800 for it, including a 19" lcd. I uilt though, I don't buy desktops, just notebooks. Depending on specific stats (PCIe 16 vs AGP, how much ram at what latency etc.) throwing in the windows cd and everything updated and ready run when they set it up, you should be able to get b/w 300 and 600 depending on who you sell it to. You can probably use it being ready to go imediately as a sellingpoint, vs buying a brand new and spending hours downloading the updates that plague new windows machine. hth

@meticoeseus : my price did include a case&psu but it was a cheaper one.

You also really dun need an expensive psu and case because the amount of power needed from that system isn't very high.

but i think meticoeus is right in his price range if you sell it to the right person. I think your best bet is someone offline and not techsavy.

@killdogg: sorry, I was just going by the specs you posted, didn't see a case or psu.

Anyway, gl selling it.
