    Here i will give you 5 cents for it.
    Or you could just GIVE it to me maybe...
    Nah me thinks that a reasonable price would have to be an even $500.00 That sounds a bit more better, well that's how much they are selling these type's of setup's at a Computer Shop near me..
    But they come with a little more then what you listed..

    Anyhow cheers

    I'm not good on the dollar/pound conversion, so I will have to try pounds for a start.

    If I am clear, you say you made this computer - does that mean you built it yourself? So no manufacturers warranty on the build. That knocks a big hole in the price.

    The spec would count in the UK as middling - similar to what you might pick up for GBP500, with some other freebies ( especially software ). It would probably not be put together as well as yours, but it would come with the manufaturers warranty etc.

    So I think you may be looking at GBP300 for it. Not because there is anything wrong with it, but because it seems like a non-standard build.

    You are not far off the mark. I sold one last year about this time, with similar spec for £450.

    kickmybutt30, ensure that you give the buyer all the manuals and drivers, for everything you installed, especially as there is no O/S. You dont't want them coming back saying they dont have drivers, can't get this or that working etc
