    Why the hell do you have 32bit? And you want like a thousand US dollars for it. Your out of your mind looking for that much cash for a used PC with only mainstream performance compared to the latest and greatest hardware.

    And you want like a thousand US dollars for it. What currency you converting from? it is 1,068.20 USD so where is this few thousand coming from?

    Seriously it is used and under a year old so for that much? If you do sell it for that then well done to you.

    It is 7 months old just checked the recipet in which i paid £1,101.15 so i think the £650 is a resonable price. The hard drives and DVD drives are 3 months old. Or break it down like this:-

    Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit or 64bit with multiple licences 2 i believe,
    OCZ 2 GB Ram sticks - £55 for the both,
    Asus Crosshair II Motherboard - £119.92,
    Zalman custom heatsink - £35.14,
    Western Digital 500GB HDD - £42.00
    2 x Samsung 1 TB HDD - £90 for both,
    LG Blu-Ray Writer drive - £135.50,
    2 x LG DVD wirter DUAL LAYER - £44.75 for both,
    iCUTE 850 watt PSU was going to be used for 2 Graphics cards - £89.99,
    2 x Via 6421A Chipset Cards 1 spare - £14.00 for both,
    Nvidia GTX260 Graphics Card - £155.09,
    LG W43 series 20 inch Monitor - £99.81.
    Antec Sonata III PC Case - £90.00

    Total - £1,101.15 7 months old = £650 i think its resonable

    Thats the exact prices of the reciepts

    Need to remember that prices usually drop quite a bit, more so if you buy something that's high end, and even more if you buy from a retail store.

    Using newegg.com prices right now(9/9/2010)(in USD), converted to british pounds comes out to only £743 for a brand new build($1150 USD), £678 if you don't include the cost of a win7 license. For a rig ~7 months old, a fair used price would be 60-70% of the *current* cost to build new.

    I just built my machine and it cost just shy of £400, so the price sounds reasonable to me :)
