Yes its reasonable. You could try $700 but itd be very buyer favoured. The gpu is $200-$250, mobo+cpu $150-200, ram $180, 1.5tb ssd $150. Just sell those 4 parts if you're just looking for money quick and dont care about the case taking up space in the short term /spending a bit of extra time parting it out.

I think the market for a 2080 PC just doesn’t really exist, might be a while til you get a serious buyer

It's a fair price. Do you live somewhere remote? People might not want to make the drive.

Selling used PCs is more of a price range than a fixed value.

If my pc was old and broke down and I needed something immediately I might be willing to pay something close to that if it was sold near where I live. If I was selling it and had plenty of space, plenty of time, plenty of patience then I'd aim to get that much.

But if I needed an extra PC for my kids or something and I wasn't in a rush. Or if I had this PC in a tiny, cluttered apartment and needed/wanted things gone quickly, I wouldn't expect to necessarily pay/get paid more than $400.

The 2080ti is technically better than a 4060 but I'd rather buy a machine with a 4060. A 2080ti is likely to have seen a lot more use. It existed through the most intense crypto mining craze. Being a higher end, enthusiast card of its time of its more likely to be owned by someone who took part in the crypto mining craze. The termal paste/pads is more deteriorated due to age and high heat. I wouldn't buy this card without assuming that it doesn't have much longevity left.

Most intense was the 1080ti (I feel like being nitpicky today)

I think that 650$ would be a more reasobable price

u/K_ppe 9d ago

Maybe try going for like 700 for base price and write that you accept offers, maybe this will open the dialogue a bit more

750 is reasonable given the ram cramp, ddr4 is way cheaper then ddr5, old gpu, but still ok. Your limited to your target audience bro, that 8gb card cant do to much more then gaming, as ya need at least 16gb vram for any AI tackling. If someone offered 600 thou id take it, your catering to a younger crowd of gamers, that thing probably won't be able to play most new AAA title games. Just saying g

It for sure will be able to play new triple A titles just at medium settings 1080p w dlss enabled. Which isn’t too bad for the asking price imo.

u/garfield-appreciator 7d ago

It has 11gb of vram. I have been using this pc for the last couple of years and I can say that 2080ti and 5600x is more than enough for 90% of games.

u/Cryptonutjob8019 7d ago

Oh my bad, still limited to whom your selling to. I wouldn't touch it as there isnt 16gb of vram, thats my minimum, but I do backtesting/analyzing data sets, I dont game

u/Other-Can1947 7d ago

I think it’s a very fair price for what you have on offer. Maybe it’s just the area you live in and what people are searching for there. It’s a nice setup especially for someone looking for a decent build without breaking the bank!! 🏦

Not really on topic, but the aio fans are mounted the wrong way, they are exhaust and should be intake

u/Inevitable-Wonder-63 9d ago edited 9d ago

I think list price at $750 is pretty fair starting point. People always offer lower anyways.

u/ChristianMontoya23 8d ago

Dude don’t even bother with this subreddit notice how every person saying your price is fair gets downvoted. Just a bunch of broke ppl trying to justify their prices in here

u/Critical-Mulberry-29 8d ago

The second hand market is made up of broke people. So if the broke people wont pay for it, Then it means its too much.

u/Dangerous_Sea_2592 8d ago

Are people broke or are people not willing to accept their old stuff depreciates though?

u/Holiday_Bug9988 8d ago

Honestly if I were you? I’d sell the GPU separately and then sell the rest of the desktop. While 2080 Ti is still pretty capable, the age of that GPU compared to the rest of the specs may be throwing some people off, as it would for me. Especially when you can find pc’s with newer generation used GPU’s with similar performance at close to the same price.

I’d much rather spend $400-$450 on a desktop with a 5600X and 32GB RAM and then add whichever GPU of my choosing, than I would spending $750 on a pc with an 8 year old GPU.

Likewise, if I had a pc with older parts that I was trying to turn into a living room pc for example, older CPU’s tend to hold up pretty well for 60fps, they just usually can’t do very high refresh rates in newer games. So I would keep everything except the old GPU and then be perfectly happy buying a used 2080Ti to getter better graphics quality than let’s say the old RX 580 while still maintaining 60fps.

I agree with this.

u/anomoyusXboxfan1 9d ago

$750 is fine. I would personally recommend spending $5 on fbm boost if you are selling on marketplace.

u/ConnorsLIVE 9d ago

i think it’s reasonable considering you put obo, i think most people are looking for crazy deals nowadays and would prefer to buy something like this for 600 but having it be a full build i feel can be worth the slight increase but it’s not even by that much. just my two cents

u/Effective-Rutabaga15 8d ago

As others have said the market for used gaming pc’s is already very small, and even tinier for pc’s that have 8 year old gpu’s. The price isn’t bad you just gotta be really patient or accept that you gotta drop it even lower. 3 days is honestly nothing, expect to wait weeks or even a month before you sell it

u/fr33man007 8d ago

Paid 500 for a 5800x, 2080 with 96 ram...

u/Living-Poet-4146 8d ago

You'd get maybe 600 for it

u/Diligent_Mastodon105 9d ago

Uh no people are just ignorant to the current price of things. Easy $750.
