I'm coming here first because I thought I'd give you guys first dibs. I've recently gotten a few parts from a friend's computer as he's going away to the Air Force and doesn't wanna be burdened with it potentially breaking, so he gave them to me. I was able to make a whole gaming computer out of some parts I've since replaced. And I used a configuration similar to this, and I know it's a reliable build that'll play just about any game at a high detail with smooth performance.
The computer can play TF2 at 120+ fps pretty consistently, i'd say that's the biggest attraction here.
Case Manufacturer: Thermaltake (I've forgotten the make and it no longer is available for purchase, but it's colorful and supports ATX. Also has a shitty fan controller built in)
CPU: i5-2500k
CPU cooler: Corsair h60 Liquid Cooling with Push/Pull configuration
Motherboard: LGA 1155 Fatal1ty P67 Pro
RAM: 2x2gb 1333mhz Mushkin Enhanced Silverline
PSU: 850w Bronze (Thermaltake manu.)
DVD Drive: Yes
HDD: Seagate 150gb x 2 in Raid0 Array (Modest read/write performance increase)
GFX: AMD 5770 HD x 2 in CrossFire (Can handle most games on High at 50-60fps)

Notes:
- It comes installed with Win 7 64bit, and is ready to go the moment you plug it in. I've wiped the drives a couple times, and put the LAN driver on it so it can connect to the internet. It might also have Google chrome installed on it, I don't remember.
- One card is a reference Radeon card, the other is a MSI Twin Frozr II. Same card, different coolers.
- I have a second pair of memory sticks to make it 8gb of RAM, but I can't find those two sticks for the life of me. If I find them before somebody buys it, I'll throw it in for free.
- The case is a bit worn, has scratch marks and some dust in corners you can't reach but it holds everything just as fine.
My asking price: $400

coupon from the other thread is still active, but you gotta find it.
At retail price, this computer is worth about $900. Some outdated hardware, but it's still a decent machine that'll eat up what you throw at it and has room for upgrades.
Any questions, just add me and we'll discuss in private.

I'm sorry, this is not future proof.
Similar price, much more modern:

Despite being decent hardware it is, as you say, outdated.
@TechDude - "futureproof" is the dumbest description one can use when buying PC's/PC hardware, since there's actually no such thing.
gl with your sale
You would probably be better off selling some individual parts for some bitcoin mining or whatever (if that's still around).

I don't think people still mine bitcoins. The return for finding them isn't greater than the cost of energy spent mining them nowadays. At least, when I last looked into it and I don't imagine it has changed at all.
Price is negotiable, but I'm not selling the parts individually. I want this thing out of my house.

I'm gonna override you here, Slin, sorry. I think this is fine.
EDIT: In case people are wondering why I overruled the lock, it's because that rule is meant to prevent abuse of service promotion. I don't consider hardware sales to be in that vein, unless it's somehow magically revealed that dennis is a hardware vendor.

Agree 100% - i've sold several laptops, a full gaming pc, and 2 monitors on here. I could probably get more on ebay, but i'd much rather give someone from the community a shot at getting it, even if i have to lose a little money.
