       So with the current global hardware crisis, cause let's be honest.. that's what they made it intoI'm weighing my options and I have a feel it's the best time to sell my local stocks to make ends meetOr in poor-mans terms, I'm wondering how much I could ask for my second (gamedev) laptop since it has some beefy hardwareWhat would be a good price for a:MSI Katana GF66 12UGSZOK-875NL - 64GB RAM (4800MTs), RTX 3070 Ti 8GB, 1TB SSDHardware experts?

       In-stock at the time they came with 16GB RAM but I upgraded that before prices went mad so that's a little win!

       @stux Wouldn't one typically just look up how much they'd have to spend to buy a similar thing? That's what I did with my old Oxygen tanks. Had to cut it bring a bit to make it all easier and faster...

       @clearcrow Yes and no 😉 It's currently not sold anymore so price could be a lot lower but in turn RAM has increased dramatically.. so with this it's a little hard to balance

       @stux IMO - I would hold on to it for now. Yeah, you could probably make a killing on it, but do you have enough backup hardware in the event that you have a catastrophic failure with your current systems?

       @stux you could easily ask the original price. Ageing and usage is compensated by the upgrades and value increase of the RAM.

       @stux Fair. My mistake. I was thinking this was more opportunistic than out of necessity...

       @unattributed I'd rather much do not sell this beauty but one has gotta be responsible and make the logical choices
