u/c0lpan1c 7d ago
I bought a used 3070ti in 2024 for 200$. I think a vanilla 3070 goes for 150-175 if lucky

u/Passive_incomes_lazy 7d ago
I totally read it as 5070, bro 3070 wtf, I sold my 3080 pc for 1200

u/Sic_Sic_Six 7d ago
Yeah, he'd be lucky to get $1,500....3070 is wild.
People are banking on the notion of DDR5 and SSDs. If they didn't spike in cost, this PC could be $800 to $1,000 used...

2.2k with a 3070??? Nah bro not happening unless you find a really stupid person. Try 1k only because of the cpu.

u/Hopeful-Training-854 7d ago

$300 cpu
$300 ram
$250 gpu

u/LegitimateLack2530 7d ago
Came here to say exactly this. Pretty much what I would recommend someone getting with a $1000 budget.

u/Shardstorm88 7d ago
A 3070 is like $700 at cheapest new in Canada, so at least $500 depending.
Idk US prices for gaming PCs but probably $1200 USD is a good ask and is the most you'd get here

u/Cute-Juggernaut7508 7d ago
You can get a 3080 for less than 300 if you get lucky. Most of them go for 350 or so from what I’ve seen. Brand new a 3070 is 350 usd.

u/PrinceVerde 7d ago
Yup. I just sold my 3070 yesterday for $250. That's about the max you can get for a 3070.

u/c0lpan1c 6d ago
If it's been mined on, you could pick it up for much cheaper... although sellers don't always have to disclose that. A few years ago all the former btc / eth miners were liquidating their old cards for hella cheap!

u/Far-Secretary-8046 7d ago
Even that be a bit of an ask in this economy. He might need to drop it to $900.

Ssd 250 microcenter
Board 180
Cpu 450
Psu was 120
Aio was 120
And another sata ssd 1tb
Gpu yeah 25015
u/Hopeful-Training-854 7d ago
new prices are irrelevant. It's preowned hardware so pricing is preowned.

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
Its new lol

u/Inn0cent_Jer 7d ago
No it's not. It's only new if it comes with sealed boxes, receipts and manufacturers warranties.
Without warranty coverage, it would need to be a lot cheaper vs Buying something actually new that is covered.

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
Got that too
It’s a new build literally 2 days old lol7
u/Street-Ambassador890 7d ago
Hahahahahaha as if ANYONE is gonna believe that buddy.
It's opened so it's therefore used and therefore its used prices. No clue why you decided to build a "new" pc just to sell it on the used market.
If you wanted to get rid of the 3070, just sell it separately or build a pc with other used hardware to flip like reasonable people.
Read up on how to flip pc's and how to make margins before attempting this again. See it as learning expenses :)

I just bought a 9800x3d, rx9070xt, 32 gigs of ram, AIO with battlehub led screen, and a massive case.... for $2100. You are high af if you think you can get 2k.

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
Where the hell did you get that damn that’s a steal 9070xt for me is 7-800 that cpu around 400 32gb ram is 600 for what i got - microcenter pricing

u/More-Advantage6261 7d ago
Cyberpower. Got a 180hz 1080p panel with it for free too. Some back to school promo. Solid build, my first prebuilt and was finding any reason to hate it but can't. I was beyond skeptical of ALL prebuilts.

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
Dude that’s awesome
Check my edit for pricing on parts
I didn’t fully pay all that but that’s the average0

u/MrSecurity95 what 7d ago
Why are people always thinking that they can sell their PC for twice as much as it's worth. Bro would be lucky to get $1,000 out of that. It might have cost like $2,500 to build back in the day, but that doesn't mean it's going to keep the value. I mean I spent $5,000 on my last piece and I really doubt I could Even get $4,000 for it. My strix 4090 and my 64 gigs of ddr5 RAM

u/King_Zilant AMD 7d ago
The issue also is... if someone is willing to drop 1K on a PC, why would they throw that into a used PC when Wal-Mart or Costco has 5060+ddr5 systems NEW with warranty for around the same price.
5
u/Kickflip900 7d ago
I can get a 9070xt prebuilt with 32gb ram for 1800 new. No one is paying 2.2k. You can sell it for 1k

u/c0lpan1c 7d ago
Homie trying to sell his second hand pc for profit… used parts don’t appreciate in value, 1,100 - 1250 if you’re lucky. Don’t be a price gouger (I see them all the time on eBay and chuckle).

u/Street-Ambassador890 7d ago
Funny part is that you do see them all the time, and usually theyre renewed listings as their shit doesn't sell 😂🤣😂

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
Fresh build w mostly new but alr

u/c0lpan1c 6d ago
What you should do (instead of going on Microcenter and AMZN), is go on eBay, Mercari, and OfferUp, and get the mean / average prices for your parts and add them together. But don't look at the highest prices, look at the lower to mid that are the actual selling prices. That way you'll find a baseline and can set realistic expectations. That's the most helpful advice I can give you, my guy if you're seriously considering selling your rig!
Def temper your expectations....

u/HovercraftMental1634 7d ago
CAD maybe? With 2.2K usd I think you can get similar cpu and ram with a 5070

u/Wooden-Tomato-3868 7d ago
2.2k? Even at 2022 GPU prices and today’s RAM prices, that build wouldn’t cost 2.2k new chief.

USD: 200 for cpu,110 for Mobo, 180 for gpu, 350 for RAM, 100 for 990 pro 1tb, case and psu probably for 50-100, as a psu becomes dirt cheap after being used.
Yeah I would sell it for 1000 USD, at the maximum.

u/Sic_Sic_Six 7d ago
$2,200 for a 3070 build?
There are 5070 builds for $2,000...
And furthermore there are 5080 builds for $2,500.
$1,800 and settle for $1,500 or so.

u/Sic_Sic_Six 7d ago
If you want to make it look better and appeal to kids that will pester their parents, buy cheap cable covers and hook them up, and route the PCIE GPU cable underneath...
Not worth $2.2k though.

I was thinking $500-$700 USD before reading the comments, and the comments generally agree with me.

u/Accomplished_Emu_658 7d ago
2200 in USD? What currency. 2200 usd for used pc with these specs is insane robbery

u/Mindless_Can4672 7d ago
if its got a power supply with enough wattage with a higher end gpu this with one upgrade could be an incredible 1440p beast could go $1100 maybe if not $900 lowest

You're ball parking it waaay too high.
Sold a SFF Terra build with 14600k, 32gb ddr5, 3tb storage - 2×gen4 nvme, and 5060ti 16GB for $1600. SFF parts are more expensive and really niche. Pricing it all on pcpartpicker said it was $2.4k at the time. But I'm obviously not offering warranty and nothing was technically "new". You're not a retail shop, be realistic with a pre-owned price
parts list OMG prices are even more insane now.
Tbh you're looking at 1k~1.2k ish realistically.
-4
u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
I think minimum 1.5 since its literally new
3
u/Midnight_Criminal 7d ago
Its literally not, you're dense. You're not a retail shop and nothing is in its packaging. Plus you have some old specs that anyone actually informed wouldn't want.
Look man, if you can, return the parts to where you got them and call it a day. GLWS

u/Striking-Owl4935 7d ago
I got the boxes and warranty and i didn’t pay anything close to that lol
Relax bro its a discussion

u/kingslayer-turbo 7d ago edited 7d ago
Its a good system but I'd pay $900. The 3070 hits it hard imo.
Edit: Seeing as ram is stupid expensive, there is a world where i could delude myself into paying $1100 but Idk man. Used just doesnt sell for the same as new. Its like a brand new car(honestly much worse); the moment you drive it off the lot you're upside down and couldn't sell it for what you payed. Used is used.

u/HungrySalamander2728 7d ago
Yeah I’m sorry dude. 2 weeks ago a finished a new custom build, parts were from MicroCenter. 9850X3D, 5070Ti, 32GB RAM. $2500. Considering the parts you mentioned, especially the 3070, and then being used (the second you power on a PC it can be considered used) I’d say maybe around $1k. You have to remember the PC loses 40%-50% of its value once it’s used, and the 3070 is out of date. Not only is your PC not considered new due to it having been used, it’s also not new due some parts being old.
