#7 thats if you buy those pieces separately , and most of the times pieces that old never have their price according to their time in the market or in comparison with newer hardware
with 1200$ i could make a much better computer than that and thats why i wouldnt pay more than 700$ for that comp
edit: just found an 8800GT for about 220€ when 9800GT is going to be somethin like 190€ i think ... also an 8500GT for 150€ Oo (WTF?!)
CPU - Intel Quad-core Q9450 - 255€ MOBO - Gigabyte GA-X48-DS5 - 196€ RAM - Gskill DDR2 PC8000 TT 4GB - 86€ GPU - XFX GeForce 9800GTX 512Mb (PCI-E) - 210€ HDD - Western Digital 500GB SATA II - 69€ CASE - any cheap case , no more than 60€ PSU - Nox Urano 700W SLI - 74€
Total of 950€ ... converts to approximately 1400$ i think ... it's a little bit more than 1200$ but a lot more worth it, even more if you remember that q9450 and 9800gtx prices should drop soon
how much is this comp worth
for the current price its a pretty good buy but i would prefer to build my own with latest hardware
and yea probably about $700-750
If you were to build that exact PC from newegg, it would cost $1200.
