I was planning on holding on to my dear LGA 775 setup for a while longer yet (yes, it's old, but it's a bit sentimental to me regardless), but alas, that may not end up being how it goes. As I recently came into a newer CPU at the generosity of another member here in a contest, so that I can make use of it, I am faced with considering selling my current platform off to cover as much of the cost as possible.
Therefore, ideas on appraisal for the following are welcome to help give me some ideas in aiding in my dilemma.
The parts for the platform are an ASUS Maximus Formula motherboard, an Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 CPU, a Xigmatech HDT s1283 CPU heatsink/fan with additional LGA 775 mounting hardware, and Corsair XMS2 (800MHz 5-5-5-12 @1.9V) DDR2 RAM (this is two kits/four modules totaling 8GB). I am contemplating selling my old MSI GeForce 8800 GT OC 512MB as well if it may be worth it.
I don't want to be too drawn out with the details, so if you have questions about something in helping you give a narrower/more accurate range, don't hesitate to ask. To cover some basics, I am the original owner of all of this stuff, and I believe all of it is beyond warranty by now. I have most, if not all, of the box/materials for the motherboard, CPU, and RAM. I only do not for the CPU heatsink/fan or the mounting hardware, nor for the video card. The stuff all works flawlessly, of course.
Anyway, I am really looking to sell the following parts together (at least the platform parts themselves; the video card can be separate) as I don't much have the luxury of waiting for it all to sell and being nearly without a modern PC in that time, but I may consider it. So I want two appraisals; one for each part separately, and one for the platform bundle (which is all parts sans the video card). I want prices assuming I would sell it here on OCN, not on eBay or Craigslist or anything.
Thanks!
