Wanted : Mass Amount Of Broken Computer Parts

phin3s · 08-January-05, 11:40 PM

i need as many broken motherboards, cpu's, even video cards for the mod i want to do..... if you have some, or know where i could get a bunch for free/cheap., then post here

I'll go in storage and see what I have but I think I gave the last of what I had away.

Hmm, thats an odd request. I have a pair of 133 MHz Pentium complete running PCs I will be shooting with my new .45 auto in the next couple days for sheer enjoyment - I can ship you a box of broken parts if you want to pay shipping..........*scratches head*

I gave away my, thought to be broken 9600XT. I might be able to get it back...

Go to a PC recycling place, they are bound to have loads of PC jargon that you couldn't even begin to imagine. Phone books are usually good for looking up these types of places.

the mobos are all i really need from them :-/

EDIT : intact if possible...... so aim for the cd drives not the mobo lol and the only way i could pay shipping is by money orderr (i know it sounds stupid) but i dont have paypal

GrandpaNoob72 · 08-January-05, 11:55 PM

Curious what they would be used for... I have an old Dell P4 mobo that I was going to try to put towards future goods at one of the local comp stores... PM me if you're interested...

EDIT: Does a DYING Dell mobo work?

I wanna get a dead 9600 and up so I can hit the core with a heatgun, get the BGA off and make a []D [] []\/[] []D necklace

phin3s · 09-January-05, 12:23 AM

these are for a future case mod.... so it needs to be dead

The Public utilities district has around ~17 computers that are ~1998 that they want to get rid of.
I don't have a clue on how much money it would be to ship them but its up to you. And for me to take out 17 or so motherboards I would expext a $5 handling fee if you know what I mean.

lol good idea j-dogg, a 9600Xt core should make a good pimpin keychain addition..

HappyCamper · 09-January-05, 03:44 AM

I've got a bunch of old motherboards in my basement. Most are dead, some are just old. PM me if you want them. I've got other dead stuff too, I'm sure. I'd just have to look around.

godfoot · 09-January-05, 01:46 PM

I also have 3 dead mobos you can have for the price of shipping.
$10 should cover it I think.

phin3s · 09-January-05, 04:52 PM

save them for me.... ill try to get paypal soon and also my b-day is coming up so i will have some money to pay for it all

godfoot · 09-January-05, 05:05 PM

They aren't going anywhere, but I am moving at the end of the month.
