You'd need 211 more posts so not a fast solution but the Members Market on here is pretty good usually for shifting computer parts. I'm not sure that even if I knew of any places that buy secondhand computer parts I could post the location without breaking forum rules anyway.
I would possibly try in your local free-ads paper, word of mouth and/or noticeboards around work maybe? As for rough prices I'd guess maybe £30 for the CPU, £35-40 for the Ram and £50-60 for the graphics card. These are very rough prices though, you could take a look in the Price Check forum on here, I don't know if you need 250 posts for that as well.

Sorry I don't know for sure, I suspect that it is but I can't recall as I've never had to use it. Scot-ads and Ad-trader I've used but the first one doesn't help you in England and I'm not sure the second covers north of the border either.
Post more, you'll find it'll most likely broaden your knowledge so when you're given members market access you'll have a better idea of what to buy using the money you get from selling the bits 
Just don't spam GD like me, whatever you do

250 posts and have been a member for over 90 days so you fulfil one of the criteria at least
Once you reach 250 posts you need to enable your trust and then I think a moderator has to check and grant you access. The information is all in the FAQ.

Do you think there is a market for my century old computer bits, I have a gpu with a whole 512kb of vram, a creative graphics blaster, the list goes on for a while.
i'll have to close this one I'm afraid as selling isn't allowed outside Members market. This thread is verging too much on that, as well as price checks (again, not outside MM) and asking for competitors (and shops which would buy them are bound to be competitors!)
