S7A88Y Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I recently got an old socket A with a mobo (unknow maker with unknow IGP) a Duron 900Mhz,40GB IDE hard drive, 512MB of OCZ DDR 400 ram, a DVD burner and all that jazz. I can,(if completely neccasry, throw in a Geforce 6200 PCI . The case is crappy . It works great, 100% stable and run 24/7. My question is weather I should scrap the parts, add the ram to my computer and sell the scraps, or if I should sell it on e-bay with the 6200 and all, or if I should I run it 24/7 folding and such. edit by soundx98 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPDMF Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Fold with it, use it as a home file serveror make a donation to a good kid that could use a puter. Ebay won't bring much for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundx98 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 no bids here. Although you may offer as a trade. I like CPDMF's idea make a donation to a good kid that could use a puter Or you can have a "giveaway" contest here at the forum. See Tmods Bios Chip Contest in the link below my thread.

ebdoradz Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 give away is a nice idea, but who will pay shipping??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S7A88Y Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Well, if I do a contest then I'll pay shipping to MOST places, otherwise whoever wins the contest, like I said, I don't wanna put another dime into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
