I found this HP Rp5800 and a few other things heading to the trash today. My question is, what the hell can I do with this thing? The only thing it's missing is the HDD
Hopefuly it has the PCIe riser, otherwise you are stuck with built in video/PCI video.
4 Dimm sockets, so it will run XP/Win7 well/ Not sure about processors tough...

What kind of CPU has it got? Does it actually boot/post?
It does have a PCIe riser. Also boots.
Nice find, OP. You could definitely use it as a HTPC, either by slapping a PCIE card in it or running it off the integrated graphics, whichever works better for your needs. Most configurations of that box are actually considerably stronger than my current system.

Anyone have any idea about the monetary value?

I'd say about $60-100, depending on your specs, condition, etc.
