A 6700K sells for at least $100-150... and that is just the CPU by itself with no cooler or anything. For used RAM and PSU, I'd say $50 each. Used small SSD, only $25 b/c really this is only for Windows OS/boot drive and you'll need to buy another SSD to actually install games. Cooler I consider a freebie on a completed system. Who knows when the AIO may fail. Air tower coolers are more reliable long-term IME (I have one over 10 years old still running with the original fan).
I know a lot of other replies here say that the total value should be $500 but that is too low unless they are all finding used 1080s for cheaper than what I'm seeing. I'd say a 1080 by itself in working condition is worth $400-500.
Personally ... I'd estimate the total value at $750 if you assume the 1080 is worth $500. Or $650 if you assume the 1080 is $400.
BUT - That assumes you are okay with buying an older PC. That RAM is almost 2 generations old at this point and the CPU is pretty long in the tooth. Over time, you'll be spending more money on electricity due to the inefficiency of the CPU not to mention you'll probably peg the CPU easily depending on what you are doing.
If it were me personally... I'd rather buy a used 1080 for a full $500 and buy a brand new CPU and do a fresh build. Or for that matter, just swallow $800 and get a 3060Ti from a scalper if $500 for a 1080 is your reference point. The 3060Ti is noticeably more powerful than a 1080, can do Ray Tracing, and also far more energy efficient as well. With an AMD CPU, you can run a 3060 Ti on a 500W PSU no problem. I'm running dual GPUs on a 600W PSU this very moment and I've never even pulled 500W from the wall even during a stress test.

But if you're even almost an 'enthusiast' as they say, check out Gamers Nexus about pre built PC's.
Dell has had lots of proprietary parts that limit any ability to upgrade later, but not sure about HP. have a look here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c...ame
Again, if you're needing a pc with a GPU - this is a great price.

Nobody's running to move to Window 11.
Is it worth flipping the old one? Just for web browsing, naw. We aren't talking huge differences here. You are better off upgrading the ram and disk space in the system you have for general usability.

Maybe I was lucky. I ordered basically this same PC but with Ryzen 5 cpu and 1 Tb SSD in early Dec and it was built, shipped, and received in a couple weeks.
Maybe I just got very lucky.
Seems to be a nice PC btw.
