Old computer parts
« on: July 10, 2013 04:44 am CDT »
Hi all, I have a stash of very old computer parts lying around. Nothing is guaranteed to work, but if you're interested in taking anything, just shoot me a PM and we can work it out. I'd be happy to send it to you free of charge so long as you'd be willing to foot the bill for shipping. Otherwise I'm taking this stuff to the eRecycle dump in about a week.

Here's a list of parts:

4x 56k modems of various mfg'ing
1x 4mb ATI Rage Pro Turbo video card (AGP)
1x AG305-32 32mb video card (AGP)
1x ATI Radeon 7000 64mb video card w/ AV out (AGP), RV6SL-B2
1x Yamaha YMF179E-S sound card (ISA)
1x Sound Blaster Live! model no. CT-4670 sound card (PCI)
1x Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 model no. SB0100 sound card (PCI)
1x ATI TV Wonder Pro w/ Remote & External Device Connection (PCI)
3x 10/100 Ethernet Adapters (PCI)
1x ASUS Motherboard (Socket 7) w/ Ali M1541-A1 Chipset
1x What I believe is an AMD K6-2 400 Mhz CPU (Socket 7) + Fan
1x ASUS A7V333 Motherboard (Socket 462) w/ VIA VT8233A Chipset
1x P2BXA Rev 102 Motherboard (Pentium II/Celeron)
1x Pentium II CPU (unknown speed)
4x PC-100 RAM (variable memory size, total at least 512 MB)
2x Hynix 512 Mb PC-3200 333 Mhz RAM
1x 512 MB 2Rx16 PC2-4200S Laptop RAM
1x Netgear WG511 v2 54 Mbps Wireless PC Card
1x Possibly working floppy disk drive
1x Acer CD-RW
1x FORTRON 235W Power SUpply
2x Mid-tower cases
Assorted ribbon cables, audio connection cables, printer cables, USB expansion devices, cooling fans, fan grates, PC speakers


Additionally, I have a barebones computer available.
MB: MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
CPU: AMD Athlon II 3200? I think?
RAM: 3 GB DDR2

The MB may or may not be working due to a possibly damaged PCIe port. No physical damage, but I get a video error every time I try to boot it up, and I have tried with multiple video cards. However, it booted up properly just a few days before and there was no issue in the interim, so I'm not 100% sure of what it is.



Anyway, give me a holler.

I was thinking the same thing...  how much for all to ship?

I use parts like that for building amateur radio automation computers...

shipping all those parts at the same time would be a hassle, and probably a bit expensive unless I can fit them into a few Flat Rate shipping containers. I will need to purchase some more static bags, and I don't know how much those will run me.

Once again: I CANNOT guarantee or verify that these are functional. On the outside, they look physically unharmed, but they've been sitting in a wooden desk drawer for the better part of a decade so who knows what they've been through.

To ship them ALL....I could probably fit most of it into a Medium Priority Mail Flat Rate box, which will run you $12.35. I can probably fit about half of them into a Small Priority Mail Flat Rate box for $5.80. In general, that's what the rates will be if you want multiple items.

As for the barebones computer, that depends. Do you want the malarkeyty case that goes with it? Heh...I broke the original power switch on it, so I jury-rigged a spare light switch to take its place. You have to flip the switch "on" then "off" to emulate an ATX power button.

Second thought, I'm good. Thanks for putting this up and allowing everyone to look through your old parts before taking to eRecycle dump. :)

I'll be probably getting a new computer at the end of the year.

Figures :P

Arf, the ATI Radeon could easily run Tribes without problems. In fact, I first played Tribes (in the form of the demo) using the 400 MHz AMD CPU, so that might be something worth taking if you are looking to build boxes to run the bots.
