Do you need a monitor?
Do you need a keyboard?
Do you need a mouse?
Do you need an operating system?
What will you use the PC for?

So, you don't actually have $700 for a PC then?

You're far better off just upgrading your rig as appropriate. Especially considering you don't know how long it'll take to sell your current rig, or how much you'll get for it.


Also, depending on case/PSU, you'd be lucky if your rig was worth more than $400 new, and I'd say 10-20% less used, so you'd be lucky to get around $350 for your rig. This would give you less than $500 for a new PC which wouldn't get anything much better than what you currently have.

So you already do have the $700? Okay then.
