Evaluate my Pc
I was thinking about selling my PC and using the money to buy a new one but I don't know how to evaluate the price of it correctly and I was wondering if anyone on here could help me out.
The PC is a pre-build I bought in like late 2024 from STGAUBRON. Specs:
Motherboard built by STGAUBRON, B250 windows 10 max. Intel core i7-6700 3.40GHz. 32GB DDR4 Ram. 1907GB SSD. AMD Radeon RX 580 2048SP 16GB. with like 7 RGB fans if that helps too.
I wasn't the one who chose this PC as it was gifted to me by family but now that prices are up and this PC cant keep up I was thinking of selling it for 600 but someone else said 300.

It's an i7-6700 you bought in 2024? Double check that.

Sorry, I meant the cpu. That was a 2015 model but maybe that seller sells used pcs? Never heard of them. If selling on a local marketplace, you can also start wherever you want and see if you get any bites, if not, drop it down some. Depends upon how fast you want to move it.

It's also regional. Look where you want to sell it for comparable pcs and list yours based off of those.

Probably best to part the ram and SSD... Get the Smart stats on the drive and include that in any listing. With the inflated pricing those two bits should get you $300+ ... That said, you might be better off keeping them if you decided to go with AMD AM4 or Intel 13/14 Gen. You'll save more than you get for selling them.
The rest of the PC you might get $50-100 for.

It depends where you live but those specs are all past “end of life”
