[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 676254, member: 7463"] That look like an Area51 gaming desktop. The price really varies upon the video card used, and sadly with the Nvidia GTX1080 that would be really a big time overkill for a non gamer (card costs about 500 bucks depending on who makes it). New you are looking at around 2600USD (and are you sure the SATA drive is only 1Tb and not 2?). So a fair price for his machine would be around 1400USD minimum. But consider that for your needs you can build a killer system around something like a Ryzen 7 with a much cheaper and equally good video card for less than 1000, all other specs being equal. Plus you could use a bigger case to make things cooler and quieter. So offer 1200 and if he says no tell him to go xxxx himself. [/QUOTE]
