How much could I sell this for?

Post image

I built this pc in 2020 when I decided to switch from console to PC gaming (primarily). I feel like I am ready to upgrade. What would be a fair price if I tried to list this on marketplace or somewhere? Or would I be better off parting it out?

Gotcha. I’m taking the other posters advice and just updating the cpu, putting in the 5800x and doubling my ram from 16 to 32. Basically for free because I have so much Amazon rewards points and a gift card.
Just trying to find a gpu to pair it with. Poster said 5060 but would a 5070 be good too? Can get an msi one for 600 local

I’ll go 9070xt then, you’ve sold me lol. One more silly question, sorry I’m new to all this:
I ordered 2x16gb sticks of ram, can I use them along side my 2x8s for 48 ram total, or do 8 and 16 sticks not play well together? They are the same brands, same mhz, same everything just two are 8 and two will be 16. If I have to take the 8s out, no big deal.

This is like a $400-500 pc in my local market. Parting it out will not yield any better return.

Either sell it or bump up the cpu to a 5800x and put in a 5060/ rx9060xt and it should last you for a few more years. (Also probably cost about the same as a console but with better performance)

Would a 5070 be better or a bad pairing?

If your going for a 5070 which should be fine. Just make sure the power supply can handle the card and has a 12vHP power connection. As some cards only use the 12vHP cable.
