It's not so much as how much its worth but how much someone is willing to pay for it.
From my experience, people tend to dislike buying used computers because your never sure of what your getting. You can get a computer for so cheap now that its hard to sell one with experience. I would try to publish in local free places and see what happens. You can always try to go to a used computer store and see how much you can get for it as a computer or as spare hardware. You might want to hang onto your RAM for your new computer |

Normally I would reccomend buying some new parts including a case to allow you to shine it up, then list it on either ebay or craigslist and wait for a solid offer. Ir you could go to a local computer store as zodiac said.
But I would go with around 400'ish |
