So, I am gonna sell my Old PC and all the other components that I have sitting around here.

Anyone interested in any of my stuff? I can make a proper list later, but here is roughly what I want to get rid of:

48gig of 3000 CL16 Corsair Platinum
64gb of 3200CL16 Corsair Platinum
64gb of CL18 or maybe CL17, not sure, 3600 Corsair LPX Vengeance
8700k
Some Asus Motherboard, Maximus X Hero, I think.
A Zotac 2080TI, tripple fan
LG Blu Ray Reader/Burner
1000watt Corsair PSU
Some Be Quiet Case 900Pro series or something, I honestly don't remember. It has plenty of Fans, and a fan controller with touch screen that goes to the front of the case, but the temperature reader is broken, the cable ripped somehow. Should be easy to fix.
Some cheap Noctua CPU cooler that I bought last year cause my AIO broke last year, but it performs damn well, cause ya know, Noctua.

Most of the stuff is 3 years old by now, it originally was a prebuilt PC, but obviously added my own parts to it and exchanged others. I only got it because I couldn't be bothered with cable managing everything, lol. I ripped the stuff out that I needed for my new system, but all the stuff works well.

I can take a few pieces of that as I was looking to build a spare rig. I also recently built a PC for a mate and was looking to grab a 2nd hand 2080ti for him, DM me what price you were looking for.

I might take the 8700k, Mobo and a load of the RAM. Will come back to you on that pretty soonish.

I actually need some of that RAM as ive been having issues with my current kit. How much with shipping included are you thinking for the 64gb of 3200CL16 Corsair Platinum or even the LPX kit?
I would even be happy just buying 32gb.

Hey guys.

First of all, the 3000mhz Ram is actually CL15, not that it really matters.
Anyway, here are the prices I think are okay. Let me know what you think:


48gig of 3000 CL15 Corsair Dominator Platinum          >>>>>>>>>> 40 Euro for 16gig
64gb of 3200 CL16 Corsair Dominator Platinum            >>>>>>>>>  60 euro for 16gig 
64gb of 3600 CL18 Corsair LPX Vengeance >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 80 Euro for 16 gig
8700k  >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 250 Euro
Asus Motherboard, Maximus X Hero >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 150 Euro
ZOTAC RTX 2080Ti AMP! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 700 Euro
LG Blu Ray Reader/Burner >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I don't know, 25 Bucks?
1000watt Corsair PSU >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 100 Euro
be quiet! Dark Base Pro 900 black >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Whatever, I just want to get rid of it. It's taking too much space.
Noctua NH-U14S >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 45 Euro

Just to check, the 3200 Platinums, are those sticks of 16GB or pairs of 8GB?

I can take:

8700k for €200
Asus Mobo for €150
PSU for €C100
I will take half if not all of the 3200 CL16 but it depends on the stick sizes if you could clarify. I assume its 16GB per stick if you have a 64GB kit. If you could do €55 for me just to keep me within a budget that would be perfect.

I don't think I could take the 2080ti for that price, on Ebay here we can get them for 150-200 euros cheaper. Sometimes a little more if you jump on a bid at the right time. If the 500 euro mark doesnt sound bad for you I could probs take it too although I will need to confirm.

I was also tempted to say throw in the Noctua as well but I think I have that exact one in storage not being used lol. When it comes to the case, CD drive etc. I don't think it would be worth paying the shipping honestly.

I would be willing to drop to 600ish for the 2080TI, over here it sells for around 750-800 (For whatever reason). Your other offers sound reasonable to me.

All the ram are 16GB sticks, yea

Yeah the prices dropped really far for the 2080ti here which is why when I built a pc for a friend of the family on the weekend I told him to hold off because if its going for 550 euros right now, when the 3000 series gets back in stock its going to drop even further when people can upgrade.

Will send you a PM in a little while once im home.

For people that upgrade their rig every 3-4 years and plan on taking a 3000 series GPU make sure your PSU has enough watt and that the CPU can handle the GPU so u don't create a massive bottleneck.
This goes both ways.

Here is a site were u can check for bottlenecks. https://pc-builds.com/calculator/

 Don't you worry my 10600k is smoking a cigarette and having a cup of coffee whilst my poor old 970 sits at 99% at almost every game XD

@olaf yeah that gpu is way over my budget atm, so I'll keep waiting until 2080 prices drop below or close to 3070 msrp

I love this country. My stuff from Olafson was out for delivery so I got everything out ready to build, then got cancelled because they forgot to charge me the customs charge.

I now need to wait a week for a letter to pay the charge nice

Wait you have to pay Customs? I put it as a present and put the price to just 150 bucks.


Also EBAY is a bitch and apparently I can not sell anything worth more than 10 Euros... So I have to get rid of my stuff someway else. I still have this, if anyone is intersted:

48gig of 3000 CL15 Corsair Dominator Platinum          >>>>>>>>>> 40 Euro for 16gig
64gb of 3600 CL18 Corsair LPX Vengeance >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 80 Euro for 16 gig
ZOTAC RTX 2080Ti AMP! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 700 Euro

Honestly, cause I can't sell the Card anywhere else anyway, I am more than willing to go down with the price too.

I literally just paid it an hour ago:

Spoiler
[close]

I knew there would be a fee, like everything in the UK if we can legally charge you for it we will lol. They were very annoying about it though.

EDIT: I sold a couple of PC's on Ebay and didn't have an issue with it. The problem I ended up having was I sold a few PC's made out of spares I had laying around for about £1200, but then the next month Ebay slapped me almost £250 in charges just using their platform yikes
