I'm looking to buy a new PC and I want to check if this is a good deal. I'm trading in my old rig, which has a Gigabyte RTX 3060 Ti, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 1TB SSD, and a Ryzen 5 5600. The guy is taking my old setup for $350.
Here's what he's selling me for $1350:
- GPU: RTX 5070
- CPU: Intel i7-14700F (watercooled)
- RAM: 32GB DDR5 T-Force RGB
- Storage: 1TB NVME SSD
- Case: Corsair with 9 RGB fans
- Motherboard: MSI PRO B760-P WiFi
- Cooler: Corsair H100I Elite LCD
- PSU: 800W Gold Rated
It also comes with Windows 11, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and updated drivers. Is this worth it?

I don't think that's a great deal, honestly. What about warranty? A brand new setup like that would go for around $1400 or so. Plus, those RGB fans are pretty blinding!
Honestly, you might want to sell your old PC for more than just $350. You could get more cash and build yourself a similar system for less. Just a thought!
Yeah, I get that! But since he's giving me $350 for my rig, I'm technically only paying around $1000. Just trying to see if it’s worth it from people who know more about PCs than I do.
