The top end components of that build are now midrange ones at best.

Indeed.
A similarly priced system runs at around $1100.00 brand new from the egg at the moment. Around $1200.00 without the mail-in rebates.

Good luck.

Good luck.

That's why I placed the letters "OBO" right after the price.
Thanks.

everyone is just trying to help you.....prices are dropping quickly, and if you want a decent price for your system, you'll want to move that quickly as major upgrades are soon to hit the market.

UPDATE: I promise to take pics with my 3x5 card tonight. Last night I had to work late, and didn't feel like taking the PC out of the box, etc.

EBAY listing is now up, with about 6 days left:

Good luck with this man!

BTW, if it sells on eBay, be VERY careful when you ship it.
I've read horror stories of people selling $2000+ systems on eBay and then they ship it and the person who receives it gets it with a CPU heatsink raddling around inside the case (which of course ruined all the parts....)

Not fun.

Hmmmm..... What do you recommend?? Pack the inside of the case with some styrofoam in strategic areas, then stick HUGE WARNING signs all over the outside of the case, instructing the recipient to remove the foam before use?

Or, partially disassemble and ship in smaller packages?

Well, if your buyer will be ok with it, I'd take off the CPU heatsink and ship it (in the same box) but not inside the case.
I'd lay the case horizontally inside the box, and have warning signs on the case and something on each side saying (with an arrow pointing to the top of the box, so that the case stay's horizontal) "This Side Up!!".

And BTW, I wouldn't put ANYTHING inside the case, like foam and stuff... lol, you could zap the components and fry them that way. And that wouldn't be good.

Good luck on this man!

Hell no, do not put styrofoam in the case!!! The styrofoam will create static and could fry the parts inside. The best thing to do is remove the HSF Video card, and any other parts that could come loose. Then pack them in their own box.
