Intel DH55HC Motherboard
Intel i5 Quad Core 3.33ghz CPU
Gefore GT 630 4GB 128bit
2x2gb RAM 1600mhz
Gefore GT 7100 GS 256MB
350w power supply (not sure what brand but I think its a cheaper brand)
148gb hard drive
And a basic case that dfoesnt have usb 3.0 slots (i know this pc sucks thats why im getting a new one)
Xbox 360 Slim 4gb
GTA 5
COD: Advanced Warfare
NBA 2K11
Halo: Reach
Modern Warfare 3
COD: Black Ops 2
Resident Evil 5
Rock Candy Pink Xbox 360 Controller

We're not here to talk you through selling your items or help with that. This section is for help with builds. Give us a budget and currency to work with and we can help. Read the rules for this section first.
As for the components you're selling;
We can't tell you how much the i5 is worth because we don't know which specific i5 it is, but the only 3.33GHz i5's were the 660 and 661, which are very old now, and are dual core chips. The GT 630 isn't even worth buying, it's a terrible card so just put it up on eBay for a tad less than the cheapest one you can find in the same condition. The RAM could be worth about $20 possibly, if it's DDR3. PSU isn't worth anything, unless it's a good quality unit. Motherboard isn't anything special. You're probably going to find it easier to sell the CPU, mobo and RAM together as a bundle but it's all fairly old components. Also, the motherboard is LGA1156 so you're running a dual core i5 on it, if it's clocked at 3.33GHz stock that is.

Im sorry man, I didnt mean to be a burden. My budget is anywhere from 350-450. It only needs to include a CPU, RAM, Hard drive (SSD if we still have money left over), a good quality pci-e 3.0 video card, a motherboard, case, and a psu. I want to run games like call of duty, gta 5, and bf4 (basically high end games) at 30+fps at ultra 1080p.

Yeah, you need everything for a PC build. What is your currency?
