alt Hacker NewsI have an old PC that I built that I’ve been meaning to take to Hard Off. I wonder if it would if it would be better to sell the parts individually, or as a single unit. For reference, it has a Ryzen 9 3900x, 64 GB DDR4, an RX 5700 XT graphics card, and 512 GB NVME. Probably not worth much anymore, and I’ll probably just sell it as-is to save myself the effort of taking it apart. But Hard Off occasionally surprises me with how much they pay for a piece of old gear.

Wow. Your old PC is more powerful than any computer I own. Faster version of my CPU, double the RAM, newer generation GPU. A fraction of the storage, though. I built it in 2020 to replace the desktop that I built in 2008.
If you put a contact method in your HN profile, I think I have a buyer for you that would be happy.
When you said you had an old PC I didn't expect you to list parts that were built in 2019.
That's a perfectly fine modern PC. Similar to or faster than what some of my casual gaming friends use.
The RAM alone would probably sell for $350 or more.
