Pentium 4s are plain space heaters.
Core2s provide twice as many computrons but are still pretty damn slow by today's standards. They also lack a bunch of newfangled SIMD widgets.
The step up from P4 to Core2 is bigger than from Core2 to Nehalem, or from Nehalem to Kaby Lake.

Just grab the heatsinks, the aluminium is likely worth more than the rest of the PC. Unless you have a recycling facility that shreds and melts PCBs down into copper and gold.

That's because London is so cucked with mudslimes, and the terrorists have to use internet cafes so Jew Scotland Yard doesn't figure out that they are terrorists.

Looks like there are 80 computers in that pile. With two cheapo 48 port switches and a more powerful control node, you could make a beowulf cluster. If this is at a school, you could claim to want to do it as an educational project and maybe get the school to supply electricity in the name of education. If they don't want to support your project you can shill for folding@home saying that you'll help cure AIDS but then use the cluster to mine BTC or ETH instead.

Not worth the hassle stealing those.

I bought a bunch of core2duo machines way back, bought around 80 of them from some school. I paid around $8 a machine. most of them had Q6400 and Q6600's but they all only had 2GB ram and 80GB hard drives. I ended up taking the ram and hard drives out of half of them and packing them into the other half so 40 or so of them had 4gb ram and 2x80gb hard drive, resold them for $129 each then sold the other scrapped half motherboards and power supplies for small amounts. The cases I just took to scrap metal. I made a few thousand from that but that was a few years back, these days it's become increasingly difficult to move pre-sandy bridge hardware. I still have a bunch of opteron racks I've been unable to sell :/

so thats 27 trips at 3 computers per trip, and assuming your car can hold 10 computers at a time thats 10 car trips. now, lets assume thats 10 minutes to get each 3 computers, 5 minutes to get from the car and in, and steal them, then 5 minutes to get them out. so thats four and a half hours now of effort, and lets say 10 car trips, 14 minutes to drive 20 miles, 5 minutes to unload, 14 minutes to drive back, at about 14 bucks a trip in gas per average. thats now
4 and a half hours + another 2 hours and 30 odd minutes, so 7 hours total of effort, and based on the average of 60 cents per miles, 240 bucks. thats 80 bucks an hour doing it solo, assuming you really CAN get 800 bucks, or 10 bucks a pc, when you really gonna have to pay shipping, handling.

or you could split this between 4 friends and make 140 bucks and narrow it down to 2 hours worth of work. now, 800 bucks value to you is going to be higher value to this, so your earning 140-560 bucks for a days worth of work and be commiting grand theft, a felony in most states.

What would you do if your son was at home, cryin all night on the bedroom floor, 'cause he's hungry...and the only way to feed him is to...sleep with a man for a little bit of money, and Daddy's gone...we're smoking rock now, in and out of lockdown, I ain't got a job now...well for you this is just a good time, but for me this is what I call life

>>62169849
What are the specs? If it's C2Q with 8gigs of RAM, it's still usable for pretty much anything. I'm not sure how Dell mobos handle overclocking, I know HP is literal hitler when it comes to as much as replacing RAM. You can buy a bunch of used R9 280s from miners and re-sell them 200-300 bucks as ok gaming PCs.

Lets see. You can have "some" computational power enough to run a small server / firewall and a "low" performance heater or you can have a high performance heater with zero computational power
The answer should be obvious.

I had seen those computers in 2017 doing SOHO stuff at stingy gigs, or as servers running all kinds of services (accounting more often)

Looks like a bunch of GX620's. LGA775 Pentium 4 or Pentium D, and despite the 945 chipset having full Core 2 Duo support, Dell deliberately crippled the BIOS to not recognize C2D's, and I hear some machines have trouble with 9-series Pentium D chips, so they're not worth doing anything with.
