With the help of some people on here I upgraded my pretty old PC in January and I am thinking of what to do with the original.

Specs:
Intel Q6600 CPU
Asus P5K-E Deluxe
4GB DDR2 RAM
120GB Corsair Force 3 SSD
Asus 560Ti 1GB GPU
Corsair 620W PSU
4x 500GB HDDs

The graphics card may resell, the SSD can be useful but I am wondering if there's anything I could use it for?
 
stulid's response was so quick I wonder if it was an auto for what must be a frequently asked question :P

Worth much?
 
Price checks are only allowed in the price check section of the MM.

Which you don't have access too.
 
Go to any well-known auction site, see what similar components are selling for, undercut those a touch if you want a quick sale, or lump them together for an approximate ballpark value. I wouldn't expect megabucks, but it's not to be sniffed at either.

Alternatively, just keep an eye out for someone among your friends and family that might have need of a cheap-ish rig, maybe as a stepping stone into gaming or perhaps just something basic to run as a home PC for emails and a few other bits. Maybe Granny wants to keep in touch with the family on Facebook, or something.

Based on Steam tables, there are quite a few people gaming on something like that, too. The Q6600 makes it a pretty decent setup and will work great for casual/starting gamers... I had something very similar myself not very long ago!
