This was my first real gaming PC that I built around 2019/2020.
I just upgraded my setup and am looking to give this guy a new home! Runs most modern games on medium to high/max settings, and most older games (2019-2021 and earlier) at max settings.
Specs and additional details are below, but there are a few things you should know.
This listing is for the PC hardware only – no mouse, keyboard, monitor, or any other accessories/peripherals are included.
A fresh copy of Windows 11 Pro is installed, BUT it is not activated and there is no product key for it – you’ll either need your own license or will need to purchase one.
I installed Windows but didn’t set anything up at all, so you’ll need to go through the setup process on the first boot in order to get into the un-activated version of the operating system.
I took the entire system apart and cleaned each component with compressed air, and then I reassembled the whole thing – so it looks clean and new now (minus a few hours running time for initial setup, transferring files to my new machine, and installing Windows – but a light spray of compressed air will get any minute dust particles out of there).
Several system components are capable of being overclocked, but I never played around with that – so everything has only been run under normal stock operating conditions.
I’d recommend researching each component below to see what the capabilities are.
Cash only.
I’m willing to meet somewhere local and public with an available TV/monitor (library? Parkland?) and bring a power cable and HDMI cable to verify the system specs in BIOS and show that the whole thing will boot up and run properly.
Sold as-is with no guarantees or returns.
-ASRock Z370 Killer SLI/ac LGA 1151 (300 Series) Intel Z370 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.
1 ATX Intel Motherboard
-Intel Core i7 8th Gen - Core i7-8700 Coffee Lake 6-Core 3.
2 GHz (4.
6 GHz Turbo) LGA 1151 (300 Series) 65W
-CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3000 (PC4 24000) Memory Kit Model CMK16GX4M2B3000C15; **2 of these kits are installed for 32GB total (see picture of BIOS screen)**
[You *might* be able to get a slight speed boost by removing one of the sets of modules, but you’d have to do some
research on the topic (or simply be more knowledgeable about computer components than me)]
-Samsung (MZ-V7E1T0BW) 970 EVO SSD 1TB - M.
2 NVMe Interface Internal Solid State Drive with V-NAND Technology, Black/Red
-GeForce RTX 3070 video card (founder’s edition from Nvidia)
-Corsair TX650W PSU – 650 watts
-Noctua NH-L9i premium air-cooled CPU fan – BRAND NEW!
[I purchased this when I bought the components for the original build, but I ended up using a water cooler that I had
already owned (Corsair CWCH60).
I waited too long to return the Noctua, so I ended up owning it.
When I rebuilt the
system to sell it, I decided to install the Noctua because it was brand new, and I couldn’t use it anyway.
I will include the
Corsair water cooler though in case you want to use it! It’s gotten some decent use over the years, but I’ve never had a
single problem with it.
Radiator and fan included with water cooler.

-Montech X3 Mesh 6pcs, 3 x 140mm& 3 x 120mm Fixed RGB Lighting Fans (Pre-Installed) ATX Mid-Tower PC Gaming Case, USB3.
0, Door Open Tempered Glass Side Panel, High Airflow, Black – BRAND NEW!
[I accidentally bought this when I was purchasing components for my new build, but I decided to use it for this listing.
Even though it’s a cheap
case, it’s designed for modern cooling, airflow, and cable routing.
The fact that the tempered glass side panel opens and closes on a hinge is
*really* nice, and I really wish the case I did use for my upgraded system had that feature… The included 6 RGB fans are functional, but
nothing special.
The RGB lights are static and can’t be customized – I don’t particularly like them, but there’s a switch on the top of the case to
turn them on and off - I tried to include a few pictures with the lights both turned on and off.
All things considered, it's actually really nice for being a budget case.

-Two generic RGB lighting strips (maybe 21 LEDs each?).
Basic lighting options (they are not assignable RGBs) that can be controlled through software like OpenRGB – I think the ASUS motherboard has software that can control them too.
The strips are magnetic and can be moved around however you like.
-I *might* be able to throw in a free copy of Alan Wake 2 – but don’t get your hopes up…
[I got a free digital copy that came with my new video card, but I already owned the game.
The only way I could get the redemption code
though was through the software for my eligible graphics card – so I have no idea at all if the code for it will work for you (you’ll need an Epic
Games store account).
I’ll send you the code though if you buy the computer.
In any case, I was able to run the game on this very machine at
medium settings – there were some visuals that I just couldn’t run properly, but it was still a beautifully looking game.
