How much should I sell my old PC for?
I definitely know that I won't get much for it. It's more a question of whether I should sell it, give it away on Freecycle, or donate it to Goodwill. Here are the specs:
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 @ 3.0 GHz (Socket 478, Prescott, with HyperThreading)
Memory: 1 GB of DDR-400 (2 x 512MB, dual channel mode)
Motherboard: ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe Socket 478 ATX motherboard
Video: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro (AGP 8X) with 128 MB
Hard disk: Western Digital 160GB Serial ATA
Optical drive: NEC DVD+/-RW drive (doesn't seem to recognize blank DVDs anymore)
Monitor: NEC Multisync FE991SB-BK 19" CRT monitor (still works great, 1600x1200 @ 75 Hz)
Power supply: OCZ StealthXtreme 500W
Case: Antec full-tower server case (black, don't recall the model number)
Keyboard: IBM 104-key PS/2 keyboard (black)
Mouse: Microsoft Optical Wheel Mouse (black, USB or PS/2)
No OS or software, though I'd be happy to put a Linux distro on it or install the buyer's own Windows OS. Thoughts on pricing?
Thanks so much!

I agree, not worth much more than maybe $200 or so. The only thing I would find useful would be the case, everything else is majorly outdated and not worth much.
I actually ran that motherboard about 3 PC builds back. I think it was about 2002-2003.

ok, this is what you do when you wanna price electronics:
look up the current market value (used) of each component, add up all the values, add 10% and that's what you'll be aiming for. minus 30% is the least you'll accept. price with "OBO" which means Or Best Offer/
if you can't find a similar condition used component, new component prices are ok, be take off 30% of its market value to compensate as you have a used part.
CRT monitors are the exception, if yours is one of the good ones favored by serious gamers there's a chance it'll be worth something. otherwise, $5. CRTs also contain toxins which makes disposal an issue for its next owner.
you might be able to get more is you sell each part separately rather than a complete system, or at least you'll start getting money back on it faster.
