Hope this is OK for this forum section!
Just tested and stripped down an old system (mostly bought on advice from here!) and noticed the parts have a little, but not a lot, of value. But I don't know of the best way to shift it all etc and could really use some advice.
The case was junk- plastic had all aged out and cracked- but it went straight into Windows. It's a Q6600 G0, on a Gigabyte P35 DS3 board (behold my overclocking MIGHT!) It has a GTX560, and 8gb of fancy ram- 2x2gb of OCZ Reaper pc2-6400 with the big goofy heat sinks, and 2x2gb of Geil Black Dragon PC2-8500. And a GTX560 with a factory upgrade cooler. Plus boring bequiet psu which is a bit newer, and some orange 120mm Yate Loons which probably dates it pretty precisely to 2007
So, nothing super desirable or interesting, but it seems like it's got a little value, maybe £50, maybe a little more. But I've no clue whether to sell it all together, or split it? And is there a good place to do it, a UK retro forum or similiar, or am I best just hoofing it on ebay?
Any advice much appreciated! Also, omg, this thing was fast when I built it but now it might as well be powered with a rubber band
