I’m after an idea of how much it is worth... if anyone could shine some light I’d appreciate it, thinking of selling it.

Mac Pro 5,1
2x3.33ghz 6-core Intel Xeon
48GB 1333Mhz DDR3
Radeon RX580 8GB (Hardware acceleration enabled)
Big Sur 11.2 wi-fi and Bluetooth working with OC 0.6.6
1TB and 3x4TB drives
OSX is on a Samsung SSD 860 Pro 256GB on a pcie slot
NVME adaptor on a pcie slot (no drive)
USB 3 on a pcie slot

thanks.

I paid a thousand bucks for my 2010 MP5,1 with the following:

2 x 3.4 gHz CPUs
128gb RAM
2x 500gb HDD
1x 2TB HDD
1x 1TB HDD
2x OWC Accelsior 6G PCIe 480gb SSD
USB 3.0 PCIe card
Vega 64 GPU and Pixlas mod

The case is clean and dent free. Just some very minor knicks and small scratches.

I purchased it on eBay not long ago as I needed something with SSE 4.2 support to replace my MP3,1. I'm running RefindPlus/OpenCore v0.66 and also have HW acceleration and full WiFi/BT in Big Sur although I use Mojave mostly.

Yours would probably fetch a similar or slightly lower price depending on case condition.

I also would like to know how much i can sell my MP 5,1 for. It is only a single CPU tho. the 6-c0re 3.33 Ghz one. It is authentic 5,1. Here are the specs:

3.33Ghz 6-core
32 GB ECC RAM
Sapphire RX 580 8GB VRAM
256GB SSD

case is in good condition. and ive dusted it so it has very little dust, etc.

I would like to sell it and be able to buy an M1 Mac Mini 16GB RAM... or the M1 Macbook... (I only mention laptop cause it offers more flexibility with job hunting, as some jobs requires you a laptop)

How much do you think I should list it as, realistically?

Go to eBay. Look up MP5,1's that have recently sold that have similar specs as yours. Chances are, it'll probably be in the 400-600 dollar range.
