I went dumpster diving behind a computer repair shop. Found a few things that I thought were worth taking.
>2 processors (one is Intel celeron the other unknown)
>3 RAM cards (128 MB, 512 MB, and 2 GB and another unknown)
>ancient sound and video cards
>late 90s motherboard
>3.5 inch floppy disk reader
>5 3.5 inch floppy disks (unknown size)
>2 HDDs (one 160 GB and one unknown size)
>2 mini discs (1.4 GB each)
>an iPhone 4 that powers on and connects to iTunes but shows nothing on the screen
How did I do /g/?

Hey, not bad.
>>
>>55850911
If you put that on ebay you might get $5.
>>

>ancient sound and video cards
i see a voice modem and an ethernet card
>2 mini discs (1.4 GB each)
those are mini-dvd's, minidiscs are something else entirely

Do you pick up dog poo off the ground to for a tasty treat too?
>>
>>55850911
Nothing super amazing, but the BX board and celeron might be good for some fun.

some of the p3s had gold in them.. if you can get 50 more you might get 50 bucks out of it
that shit is useless.. i'd throw it out again.
old hardware (isa cards, AT boarts, etc) are worth cannibalizing because they contain a shitton of logic gates, pgas, etc all with DIP sockets which can be used for home electronics projects.

>>55850911
Ahh sheeit is that a SLOT A motherboard?
>>
>>55851544
probably slot 1, and was used with that celeron
>>
>>55850911
It's mostly trash, sorry anon.
Maybe you could get $20 on eBay for the mobo if you're lucky.
>>
>>55851262
lmao

>dumb maker hipsters
you'd need a literal ton of them plus an expensive facility to even get a little bit of gold out of that shit, and recyclers don't pay
>>
>>55851300
Would be perfect for a Voodoo 2 SLI retro gaming box, if it is working that is.
High risk the caps are in pretty rough shape.
>>
>>55851578
That's a mobile celeron. Modern stuff.
>>
>>55851632
you know there are companies that buy them in bulk from you to extract the gold ?
>>
>>55852322
and they pay you practically nothing for it
>>
>>55851632
>you'd need a literal ton
50-120€ / kg dipshit
>>
>>55850911
What kinda data is on the drives?
I work at a local computer shop, and we DoD wipe drives before we recycle, but we know others dont.
>>
>>55851818
I don't think I've ever had cap problems with any boards of that vintage. I think it depends on the environment you live in.
>>55852294
The slotted chip is also a Celeron.
>>
>>55852331
that's why i said
>if you can get 50 more you might get 50 bucks out of it
can't you read ?
>>
Wonder what you could pull off of those HDDs... they don't look destroyed at all.
>>
>>55852373
it would be more like $10
>>
>>55852409
