It has really rare and weird parts.
What could I get out of it?

Specs:
CPU - Intel Pentium 4 Willamette @ 1.4GHz
Motherboard - ASUS AS99127F
RAM - 128MB RDRAM ( Very very hard to find nowadays )
GPU - NVidia RIVA TNT2 M64
HDD - 30GB WD Black
PSU - Generic non-80+ PSU by AGI ( I have loads of these lying around, over 7 of them )
Case - Some generic ATX white tower from the early 2000's, unbranded

I mean, it's cool and all but it just wouldn't be practical.

Of course it isn't practical for real use, but some people out there would really like to get their hands on this. It seems like something a collector would really want, considering it uses RDRAM and the very short-lived Willamette Pentium 4.

Well. After doing a little research if you sell it on ebay you may get a decent amount of money for it.

I'd say about...

100 bucks?

No idea why would ask these morons about anything computer related ever, or just anything in general.

Old PCs that are common aren't worth anything, such as your average socket 478 Pentium 4 with 512MB RAM and Intel Extreme Graphics 2 with a Dell logo stamped on it. These are worth a good $20 because everyone has one in their basement and they aren't something that are to be proud of owning.

I highly doubt you can even find a bunch of old computer collectors who own a PC with a Willamette Pentium 4 and RDRAM, since it was so short-lived.

One thing that I found very strange about RDRAM is that all slots must be used in order for the PC to work. So if you have two sticks of RAM, you have to have two sticks of dummy RAM for the PC to work. It's really weird, since the RAM that i'm used to using ( SDRAM, DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 ) doesn't work like this.

@TheSharpestEdge2

The most he would get is roughly 50-100 bucks for it not anything more, not anything less you dolt.

I don't know, man. I've seen old Pentium III computers sell for $150 on ebay several times, and those were common.

The other PCs I own are fairly common though.
One of them is a Dell Dimension L600R, it has a Pentium III and 512MB of RAM, but it's pretty bad because even after its release it was considered obsolete and slow.
The other one is a Dell Optiplex GXa, which I still struggle to ever find listed on ebay. It has a Pentium II and 256MB of RAM.
The others that I own are from the similar era.

I'll probably just try to get $200 or $150 out of it.
