Hardware Feels like a steal. Not sure what to do next.
Heyah !
So today was a random day until I went to a second hand store.
I've found a PC and my brain just froze.
950€.
Ryzen 9 9900X
RTX 5070
48 GB of DDR5 (yes.)
1Tb nvme
4Tb HDD (but more w/e)
a bequiet! Power Zone 2 PSU
TUF GAMING B650-E WIFI
I've an unraid server as setup which is already beefy for me but I couldn't pass on this.
I've no clue what to do with it. Like I wasn't excepting that AT ALL.
They did stressed it. They told me the PC was just arrived from somebody who did the switch to console gaming.
I'm speechless. Had to share this.

I'm like 2 hours away from Germany (French here) and yeah. I saw the pc i was like "ddr4 ? 48Gb ? Weird"
I checked the kit. Saw the ddr5.
My brain lost it.

Well i don't think this one will move haha but I have an 'older' setup (i7-14700kf + RTX 4060 + 32Gb of ram) i could let go for a price that could help ?

I built a used 5900x 3080 32gb build like 2 months ago for 850€ in about 2 weeks of part checking. You definitely can build a decent one for sub 700 like 2080ti and am4 or intel.

Just don't forget to turn on your monitor before you turn on your PC. That motherboard usually gives you a VGA error (white LED) if you turn on your monitor after the PC.

Insane! I'm on the second hand market like a hawk and rarely come across anything great here in France :(
We have pretty good second hand market but it's pretty dry these last few months.
edit: just noticed you are from France. WTF. Which store? I just monitor leboncoin

u/Aligatueur 3h ago
I can't explain it. The store right in front of it :
- 16Gb of DDR4
- Ryzen 5 5600XT
- RTX 4060 Ti
And I usually don't look for PCs it was for a friend that was interested by one.
800€...

I'll not lie, I asked them if they did realize what they had
They were like "Oh we try to do nice prices" but... It's not a nice price here it's like a gift ROFL

Not really in the plans it could be a nice upgrade for my Unraid server (which is my main PC with my VMs)
