A neighbour was throwing it out so i said id take it. Dont have a power cord but there were also usbs and hd leads etc left in it which work. Glanced at the parts and figured if i could get 200 for it id be happy. Looking at pic whatn is its worth? its prob 10 years old or so.

I'd knock a zero off that asking price, that thing is old as shit.

It's AM3, so it's closer to 15 years old than 10. It's dead for modern gaming. AM3 lacks instructions, like AVX, that prevent it from running modern games. And no one is really collecting that stuff. There's enough of it around still, it's easy to find.
No clue what the video card is, but judging by the rest of the system, it's probably not going to be a newer card. It's got a VGA port as well under the adapter.

The only thing worth money is the case.

so bin?

PSU and Tower are salvageable. Storage devices can be re-used as secondary units in a new build. RAM could probably be sold off at a profit.

Been awhile since ive seen a IDE connector on a motherboard : )

Isnt it DVI tho, and hence the DVI-VGA adapter? Still, newer cards dont have that one either.
@PBAC I would get a power cable and see if it's operational, then see the exact specifications in device manager and check the offers on craiglist or wherever they sell stuff innyour area. You should be able to sell at least the case, PSU and memory. PSU seems newer than the rest of the build, it's modular.
I strongly doubt someone would want to buy it as a whole for $200.

PSU is getting to the point I wouldn't rely on it. OCZ stopped existing as a company in 2015.
Even if the ram is 16gb, it's worth like $5 locally.

This stuff isn't exactly desirable. It's going to be listed for a while unless it's dirt cheap.

Save the CPU cooler, too. Just a hunk of finned metal. Even old ones like that probably plugged into the same 4-pin connector on modern motherboards, but even if not, the first thing you replace/upgrade is the fan, which is what has the cable that plugs into the motherboard, anyway. Only thing you'd likely have to obtain is a mounting bracket for more modern sockets, but the cooler probably has one. Worth figuring out, anyway.

That PSU is easily over 10 years old. It's listed on Ebay right now between $20-$40.

Not that familiar with OCZ. So unless that brand is prone to failure it should work fine. Only problem might be modern output connectors might be limited for molex use.

Ram could be desirable for business computers.

OCZ was one of the very first companies to market SSD’s, and they were crap. They had an insanely high failure rate.
There are Sata cables hooked up to the motherboard. Common sense would tell you that there’s Sata power connectors.

Its DDR3. It’s not exactly rare ram.

Now factor in the eBay fees, PayPal fees, and your time.
Now how much is it worth?
It’s the same with the rest of the pc. Yeah, you could part it out, but when you factor in your time, that $20 turns into $5 real quick.

That wasnt my point. With it being semi-modular and its age. The supplied cables will still be heavily targeting molex usage.

 

[PBAC]

could I drop into a reuse store and sell it for even 20?

 

[DougieJones]

That thing couldn't run Crysis

 

[Slobodan]

I'll give you $20 for it
