Free computer parts

Scrapping an old gaming pc, motherboard shit the bed and I’m goona start from scratch on the new build. As such I have some parts that are free to a good home.

Evga 500w power supply

8gb ddr3 ram x4

Geforce 650ti gpu

Amd “bulldozer” cpu

It’s all going into the dumpster end of day tomorrow but if you hit me up before then you can come by and grab whatever parts you want. Case is up for grabs too but it’s pretty busted. You could probably scrounge the fans out of it if you want.

Edit: parts have been spoken for, you can still message me but I probably won’t reply unless things fall through.

I could use all of those parts actually. I'm sick as a dog tonight, but I should be able to scrape myself together for tomorrow if that works for you.

Also, I should mention all listed parts work fine as far as I know but I cannot guarantee anything, but shit it’s free after all.

Refreshing to see a donation like this rather than the typical "$800" gaming PC! Runs great!

My husband builds computers as a hobby and could use these parts. Our system is in dire need of a new power supply and more ram.

I just found out about this last year, but if nobody takes something you want to get rid of you can recycle the parts for free at Best Buy. I think you can drop off 2 computers per day there for recycling. They can be home-built PCs, partially-harvested guts of old PCs, older name-brand PCs, whatever. When you first walk in the door, over on the right near Customer Service there is usually a large gray cart sitting there for used PCs.

You can also drop off old monitors there too. Again, I think they limit it to 2 per day but I don't remember.

It's a pain in the ass compared to dropping the thing in a dumpster, but it's nice to keep some of the more toxic crap that's in electronics out of the landfill. :)
