old stuff, what to do

Rutar · 10th June 2005, 17:27

I got 4x64 MB ECC SD-RAM, 2x333MHz PII, AIW64 Soundblaster, Vodoo 3 3000 AGP videocard, 32xSCSI CD-ROM and a dead Asus mobo which I already salvaged off everything that was removable.

Anyone got a good diea what to do with this stuff?

How much abuse can the PCB of the ram chips take? I'm thinking of using them as keychains =P

Sell the RAM, SD-ram is pretty expensive, even second hand. The ECC might be a problem, because (not sure) it might not work in normal motherboards. On the other hand, ECC is more expensive, but there is only a low demand for it.

what mobo, and if it's P3, does it still have the clockgen chip on it? I got a mobo here that blew one.

well, 128 meg PC133 sticks are going for 28 CHF (20 euro) here, so the whole sticks are worth new no more than 40 new

Look around for an old Tyan Tahoe2 motherboard and stick all that stuff on it...it will flat *** fly with dual boot 98se/W2K Pro and a relatively modern hdd.

256Mb of registered ecc is expensive but as mentioned, not all motherboards will accept it. Speaking of expensive; most PII dual processor motherboards I've seen for sale are overpriced too. A server like this, when new, commonly cost over $20,000.
