What do you think it’s most likely worth?

If it came with RAM it would be worth say.... 1 BILLION Dollars!

i7-14700KF $608.35 New
NZXT Kraken 240mm Water Cooler $182.85 New
Samsung 999 1TB $458 New
Gigabyte RTX 4070 Super $1269 New
850W Gold Modular Power Supply $283 new
Phanteks NV Series NV5S Tempered Glass Window ATX Case $176.33 New
Gigabyte Z790 X AX $481 New
Total value of components new $3427

PC Hardware devalues by 10% the minute it leaves the store and by 35% after six months, by that logic its worth about $2228 assuming six months or older

Hmm perhaps ive put foot in mouth and will retract my previous.

Not sure how prices should be discussed in an EOI thread.

The below post is well reasoned.

Err well, expressions of interest requests would fall under a different category I'd imagine.

Quic Broadband

Move to New Zealand's best fibre broadband service (affiliate link). Free setup code: R587125ERQ6VE. Note that to use Quic Broadband you must be comfortable with configuring your own router.

There is normal age and wear devaluation like SSD health, PSU age, cpu cooler pump runtime, and then there are other external factors like the AI boom inflating GPU’s with over 16GB vram or ram price going through the roof.

You’ve also got the unfortunate problem of Intel CPU degradation, most people will be wary of second hand 13/14th gen for that reason.

Would consider $2200 + shipping based on people’s responses.

Depends when it was purchased IMO or if it got replaced, as the patch came out during the 14th gen life.
