Well let’s consider I just built a computer with:
amd x2 5200+
gigabyte am2 motherboard
2gb g.skill ddr2-800
320gb WD SATA hdd
20x Lite-on SATA DVD burner
evga 8800gts 320mb
aspire x-dreamer 2 case w/powersupply
for $775; so let’s reevaluate your pricing:
case: $110
motherboard: your mobo doesn’t support core 2; $50 max
cpu: you can buy an amd 3800+, faster than the p4 650 for $50 new
cpu fan: wouldn’t consider it much of a selling feature, but I’ll give it $35
PSU: its $100 new on newegg
RAM: I’ll go with your $35
HDD: ” ” $50
video: definitly old hardware at this point, maybe $80
sound: you can buy an x-fi for $50, yours is worth more like $30
tuner: $50
modem: $0
DVD drives: $25 each
floppy: $7
mouse/keyboard: GE? I’ll give it $25
OSs: $0
Ok that brings our new total to: $672; I’d say you could probably get $700 for it. But wait, my $775 machine is faster in every way… I’ll let you draw your own conclusions about that.
Sucks how fast computer parts depreciate doesn’t it?
