    I am figuring on selling off my previous machine once the teething issues with the new one has been resolved. Given these specs, what would be a fair price, Lemmings? I was guessing around $2,250 without the drives, but I am not really on the pulse of the market.

    • CPU = Ryzen 5950x + Noctua heatsink with Kryosheet.

    • PSU = SeaSonic Vertex GX-1200

    • MOBO = Crosshair Hero VIII + WiFi

    • CASE = Rosewill Thor V2

    • RAM = DDR4 3600, 128gb total, came as a kit of 4 sticks.

    • STORAGE (OPTIONAL) = x2 to x5 4tb SSD SATA drives, non-NVME.

    The biggest issue here is doing an RMA on the CPU. It is unstable when PBO is enabled. Since I suck at techno surgery, I wouldn’t be able to install the replacement without forking over money to a technician. Maybe I can make that contingent on buying at least 2 SSD SATA drives?

    My new machine has only 4 SATA ports, and the SATA card to support all five SSDs and the optical disc drive is taking up a GPU slot. Being able to buy some 2280 M2 drives would solve that problem for me. That would gel nicely with a technician handling the transfer of the SATA SSDs back to the old machine for the new owner, since the tech can also get the M2 and a third GPU into my new PC.
