Breaking P4 build.

swift00 · 20-07-2012, 1:36 AM

Got an old Dell from 2004, and was wondering whether breaking for parts would be suitable to just get a few bob?

I'ts got the penultimate release of the P4 CPU's, 2GB Geil RAM, 160GB SATA HDD, GeForce 7600GT, stock dell motherboard and DVD-drive.

Think It's worth anything? I remember getting it for £800 at the time. :/

If the memory is DDR2 or the graphics card AGP then they might be worth something.

Pennies. Postage may cost more.

Given the age of the machine I would be inclined to try and sell it as a complete item however all you will get will be peanuts. If you break it up you are not guaranteed to sell everything.

I would sell it as a complete PC - might get £50 if you install a fresh copy of an operating system.
