    Worthy?

    Is this PC worth anything?

    what are the specs?
    it needs stripping and a good spit and polish, that dust build-up will turn off potential buyers who can’t see past that sort of thing.
    looks old’ish - for example, no native USB3 ports.
    match your specs with something similar on say eBay but purely guessing on my part, and without knowing the hardware specs or OS installed, I’d be guessing something around $AUD200 - $300 would be your ball park.

      It has no operating system currently. Connected to a monitor I can see the year 2008 when fired up.

        That date would be the Bios date, and it only means the motherboard would be as old or older than that. It’s a now old DDR3 memory system (according to your pics) and as Bruce asks, the specs would be good to make an informed decision. As it has no OS, so a potential buyer cannot see it work, it may well be worth more stripped for parts.

        I have recently stripped and unloaded several old pc’s that used DDR2 and 3 system memory for parts on Ebay and was surprised how much in demand the old bits are.

                    P6T6 WS Revolution

                    Slightly different colour scheme but looks to be the same board, checked the specs to see if it had onboard video in case it was needed for troubleshooting, no onboard video unfortunately.

                    Specs also state that 24GB of RAM is the max btw.

                    If the only problem you are having is the lack of an OS such as Windows you can download Ubuntu which is a free OS, see info here
