Hey guys, this PSU is too big for my upcoming smaller rig so I am looking to get rid of it.

What do you think this would go for?

I have had it for about 1.5 years, never had an issue.

Thanks

It's a pretty good unit. Same class as the Corsair HX1000 really. Slightly outdated by today's standards, but still a very reliable unit capable of pushing three or four GF110s without too much issue.

Price? No one's going to buy anything with with the Coolmax name on it for more than $50, regardless of how good it is.

EDIT: There's a chance it may be overrated, Jonny only tested the 1350W up to 1050W, since his test bench wasn't capable of more at the time. So your 1200W may only be a 1000-1100W. Maybe. We don't know. But it's still a solid unit.

$50 really? I can take pics, it has been in two cases since I bought it so it should look mint. I also have all the extra cables.

Glad I got an answer from the PSU guru but $50 seems pretty rough....

I can't sell unused (though warranty-voided) Antec and Corsair 650-750W PSUs for more than 2/3rds retail value. There's a big stigma against the Coolmax name among the enthusiast community, and the people who would buy Coolmax aren't going to pay a lot of money for it. Plus yours is used, which automatically knocks 50% off the top.

The used PSU market is crap.

Damn - maybe I will hang on to it and make a folding rig.....

Thanks for the help, I'll probably keep this then.
