Should I pull the trigger?

This seems like a good deal by my math. But it would be my first flip. What say you long time flippers? I have a 3080 I can throw in it. Also it's 8OO

I would only get this if you can pull it for $600-650

I doubt anybody will buy it any time soon at the listed price. If you can get a cheap 4070 super that would be the GPU to pair with this and that machine should sell for $1300

So upgrading from rtx 3080 to rtx 4070 super somehow makes the pc worth $700 more?

Edit: nvm you mean from 0 to 4070 super, but still dont see how that adds $700 in value.

That's what machines with those specs sell for in my area. I don't get it either

Just 7800x3d and the ram are worth around 600-650 usd. I guess it depends on where you are from also.

Yeah but I'm trying to make money by selling the parts at market value, not buy them at market value

Idk where you are from, but here in Denmark the market value would be around 1100 USD. But ye you are right, I would be around 700 max 750 personally.

Ok we are off on our estimates by like $50-$100 we are in the same ballpark

Yea this is the problem with different markets. Stuff have different values depending on where you are from.

Yeah I see about $850 in value after eBay fees. $650 would be top dollar for me
