What do you do with your old hardware?
>>55106203
mostly it sets on some shelves in my room behind curtains - just in case.
really should clear it out
>>55106203
Closet
>>55106223
This.
I've never been good at throwing things out, especially when I could potentially possibly one day find a use for it.
i keep it in my closet or something and after a while I trash it sans hard drive
>>55106203
collect dust on it
>>55106203
If I get any corporate hardware or some free machines I just simply open them up see what parts they have. Cobble myself up the most powerfull machines and take all the ram and spare disks I can and put the motherboards in safe place away from all the shit and then stick the working servers in my server room.
>>55106203
Assemble them into a chair and pretend it's comfortable to sit on.
>>55106203
I am completely incapable of throwing out computer equipment. Especially processors.
At some point I started feeling empathy for them and now I just can't stop myself.
>>55106223
How much stuff do you have?
>>55106203
I got 3 towers, one monitor and one all in one touch pc lying under my bed, 2 broken laptops in my closet.
I've also got a couple of boxes with parts.
That's pretty much it
>>55106203
Sell it on ebay or to friends.
>>55106203
I sell it immediately after upgrading, unless I have some particular purpose for it.
>>55106203
Destroy it with a baseball bat and throw it away like the trash it is.
>>55106203
I take them to bits and save parts. Get rid of cases to save space.
All of the gentile consumers ITT need to get off g and go gonsume a burger at walbart
>>55106203
I'll tell you as soon as I've figured out where it is, think it may be spread across three countries.
Side note, he would have looked a lot cooler if he removed his glasses and sat up straight. He looks like a pathetic dweeb sitting like that.
>>55108986
He would look like a pathetic dweeb any way
>>55106203
I sell it before it gets too old.
>>55107048
Same, i still have all the parts of all computers i have built myself.
I am considering making a sort of display to hang on the wall for all my old processors and GFX cards.
I already have a few old motherboards hanging on the wall.

>feeling empathy for them
Bawled my eyes out when I sold my 770, I don't know why, it's just so sad to see it go
Still have it right here baby
Piece of shit I hated using:
>Celeron 420, 1x1GB DDR2, ECS motherboard, 3x40GB and 2x80GB IDE drives (I also still have the enclosure for them)
Case and mobo both busted, rust and rat piss. Should probably throw them away tomorrow now that I remember.
Best time of my life(used this until last year):
>Phenom II 555BE unlocked to 4 cores, 4GB DDR3, 5770
Still works.
Put it in a drawer or closet till I find a use for it.
>>55106203
Turn em into bitcoin miners, i make like half a cent a month, but hey, id be making 0 cents a month if i threw em out.
I used to sell it on ebay until I got fucked by 2 customers for about $600. Now I just keep them in anti-static bags in my closet.
>>55108510
I hope you put it into electronic waste! Else GTFO.
>>55106203
Become an autistic fagoog and take a photo of myself on some old workstations from accounting.
>>55106203
i resell them to 3rd world countries.
hold on to last gen just in case but throw it out eventually when that gets replaced.
>>55110795
I would love to live where electricity is free.

Usually keep them around for sentimental reasons and for the occasional lan party. Only PC I've hung onto that can't do much is my Dell XPS R400.
>>55116246
if you're ever bored try to dual boot NT and win98 on it, it would probably be a dank quake lanbox
that shit has way more life than you'd think as long as you moderate your expectations
Assemble a PC and put it in some part of the house.
