Purchased my gaming PC about a year ago but needs have changed now (i.e need a laptop and an Xbox!).

How much do you think this is worth if I stick it on ebay? I cant seem to find something comparable as a guide....

"Evesham Double D GT"
Intel Dual Core 3Ghz 1MB Cache 800mhz
Intel 915P motherboard
NVidia 7800 GTX 256MB PCI Express
1GB RAM DDR2
DVD Drive / CD Writer
XP Home
250GB 7200rpm SATA hard drive
7.1 on board sound
2 year warranty still remaining

Any advice welcome!

Not much.

At the most, half of what you paid for it originally

IIRC £1000 almost a year ago...so £500. More than I thought to be honest!

Just built a similar system for £360 so I reckon about £400 - £450.

second hand PC's are always tricky to value, inevitably it will not be all things to all people (even when it is dedicated to gaming, there are so many different preferences). Are you just trying to sell the box on, i.e no screen/speakers etc?
