FS: Editing Desktop - Windows or Hackintosh

Don't have much use for my editing desktop anymore, thinking about unloading it because I need some cash.

Custom editing desktop, fastest computer I've ever used, dominates anything you throw at it.

3.2 ghz 6-core i7-3930k overclocked to 4ghz
32gb 1333hz of RAM
128gb SSD + 1TB 7200rpm HD
Nvidia GTX 660ti 2gb (two dvi outputs)
gigabyte x79-up4 mother board with USB 3.0
12 in 1 card reader
dvd/cd combo drive

I have run windows and osx on this computer. I can send it off with windows 7 ultimate or a blank boot drive to do what you please with. I will not hackintosh the computer for you, but it is very capable of being hackintoshed.

All together this computer retailed for about $1700 18 months ago, I would like $1200, current equivalents are going for $1700+ new.

I would like a local pickup on this item but I'm realistic and will ship it at the buyers cost. Paypal prefer if shipping, cash if in person.

I also have an extra 120gb SSD I would toss in for an addition $80 or will sell separately when the computer sells.

I can provide some photos for a serious buyer. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks guys.

Why do I keep making big purchases RIGHT before something awesome pops up on NS...

then again, shipping on that would probably be the suck.

Just recently re-installed my hackintosh, now running mavricks 10.9.3, very smooth and faster than ML. Still looking to sell this computer, hit me up

I heard Evan is selling all his equipment so he can get proper DJ equipment for his club jams.

I heard Evan is selling all his equipment so he can buy his way into the PGA Tour and finally become the pro golfer of his dreams.

I'd be super down to sell it locally, so much easier. This computer is literally 4 mpbs for 1/2 the price of one.

So tempted...if I could play Skyrim and Maschine on the same system, I'd never leave my room even more than I don't now.

need to add, only issue is the fan for the liquid cooling seems to have a loose bearing or something that causes it to make noise, mainly just when it boots up. This does not effect the performance of the fan.

otherwise ttt
