Hate to break it to you, but you likely won't get more than $800 for that.

The 560Ti is worse than a modern $150 card, and while still good, the 2500k is dated.

If anything, the Obsidian case is probably worth the most out of any part.

Well, the card wasn't top of the line to begin with, and is now 4 years old. And I still wouldn't say it's obsolete.

It can still run a lot of games on high/maximum settings, for most games right now around a good FPS.

This laptop has more juice in it than this rig bud. Not trying to be a dink, but if you want to sell it you'll need to seriously drop the price.

fair enough but for $1500 most games and good isn't gonna cut it...you could build a monster with that much money, some really good cheaper cards coming out lately that would blow that out of the water

Plug $1500 into memory express website and the machine you can build comes out waaaaaaay ahead.

Don't fault you for trying to get as much money as possible, unfortunately computer hardware depreciates faster then anything I've seen and you'll never get as much as you hope to when trying to re-sell.

Yeah that sucks, new computer hardware is being released so often that my machine is already outdated...
