SnowDrifter Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Checked ebay to see what they sell for there? Yeah. I don't see any with my cpu - which I refuse to part with unless the price reflects accordingly since it was a $1000 option. So I am still 'up in the air' in terms of what it is worth Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 I forgot to mention... The battery life is 1:45-2:00 hours, it plays crysis and most of the new games, has a 17" screen, and the CPU will beat out the newer I7s any day in multithreaded, and especially single threaded performance(overclocked to 3.3ghz remaining withing intel's voltage specs for the CPU) Not sure if it makes a difference, but I figured I would add it just in case Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your letting that "Extreme" word go to your head my friend. Im guessing that notebook wouldnt be worth more then 750-800$ Sorry, just the nature of the beast. The GPU is not intended for gaming use, but rather more toward profession graphics, and at that, still not great. Yes..... it is a nice notebook, but only for a small nitch community.....

Isn't it the extreme line the one where they up the clock speed a bit and let you keep your warranty even after you overclock? EDIT: I guess not. I'd have sworn I read this somewhere.

xStatezOfMindZx Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 (edited) You can get about $1,300 for this from a private party. Some shops sell this model used for $2,100. I have found some on CL in the area of $1,300. http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/sys/2494173879.html You would have to find a power user to sell this for more than $1,300. Local shops might give you $1,200 for it but I wouldn't sell it less than 1/2 for what I paid for it. You got the extra HD so that will bring the price up some, as for the CPU you upgraded doesn't really bring more power to the table since it is overkill for most people uses! To make a quick sale on CL, I bet you will only get about $1,000 off it since it is used and most people don't spend that much money on a used notebook unless it is an Apple.
