How Much Is My PC Worth?
Select your PC hardware, age and condition to estimate a resale-value range. Results use local reference data and transparent depreciation assumptions — not live marketplace pricing.

Only selected hardware is included. Missing parts are excluded from the reference sum; add them for a more complete system estimate.
Why this estimate?
Calculate an estimate to inspect its reference basis, adjustments and range. No sale value is shown before valid inputs are supplied.
A transparent model estimate, not a live market quote or a guaranteed selling price. USD only; no currency conversion.

Reference × age × condition = midpoint before rounding. Midpoint rounds to the nearest $10; range bounds round outward to $10. Retention is the combined multiplier, rounded to a whole percent.

Catalog range: all 8 major parts ±10%; 6–7 parts ±15%; 3–5 parts ±20%. Whole-PC manual baseline: ±20%. Fans affect the sum, not the coverage tier. These are editable editorial heuristics, not market measurements or industry-standard depreciation rates.
The same 40-part local catalog supports all three tools. CPU and GPU entries describe model families; GPU partner SKU differences are unpriced. RAM, platform, cooling, storage, power, case and fan entries are illustrative LAB Reference fixtures. Reference prices are approximate USD seed values, not current retail prices or observed transactions.
How the PC value estimate works
This PC worth calculator adjusts a reference value for system age and physical condition. Select CPU, GPU and RAM to begin, or supply your own complete-system replacement value when exact parts are outside the catalog.
What affects a used PC's value?
Hardware, age, wear, demand in your area and transferable warranty can affect resale. Peripherals, software licences, selling fees and shipping are excluded. Actual faults need individual assessment.
Why age and condition matter
Older systems receive a lower assumed retention factor. Condition adjusts that baseline for broad wear and functionality; it cannot price a specific repair or prove the system works.
Why exact hardware improves the estimate
More selected components make the catalog reference sum more complete and narrow the model range. Missing hardware is excluded. You can inspect the same IDs in PC builder or compare component balance in Rate my PC.
Limits of static reference pricing
The result covers supplied information using a small seed catalog and editorial assumptions. It uses no marketplace feeds or completed sales. Treat this used PC value estimate as context before checking actual hardware and comparable local listings.
