Probably about £200-£250?. Nearer to £300 depending on the graphics card spec. Mine's a very similar spec, except it's only got 2.5GB Ram and I don't think it would fetch much. New quad-core PC's are becoming so cheap now.

Pentium 4's are from about 1998, it's worth about £30.

I've just sold a quad core, 4Gb ram, 500GB HDD, Nvidia Graphics, HD audio, wifi card, etc for £280 and that was brand new. No screen tho, but they're cheap now.

Unless it was a really good graphics card then I'd not pay more than £200 for it, but then the CPU is probably bottlenecking the GPU if it's high end.

Not a lot, £100-200. If it's a real copy of XP, then the licence is worth more that majority of the hardware (unless the GPU is something special).

Best thing to do is split it and get it up on avforums/overclockers

I'd be happy with £200 if i could get it. Not great at this splitting up so wouldn't be happy with doing that.

Anyone on here fancy offering money for it?

Get the specs (model/manufacturer) for the hardware (use something like CPU-Z for CPU/Mobo/Ram and GPU-Z for the Graphics Card) and then list it all up, perhaps create a thread in Classifieds

Split it down and sell everything on ebay, only chance you will get of selling it for a decent price. To sell the computer shipping would be £15??
