Cheap PC motherboards, AMD chips, RAM
ChrisW - 7/1/11 at 09:35 PM

All these combinations pulled from a working enviroment a few years back. They've been in storage ever since, but I'm having a clearout to raise funds for the car.

Perfect for a cheap upgrade, bulding a spare/garage PC, etc. Not exactly up with modern technology, but not so old to be useless either!

All have been powered up and taken through BIOS POST (power-on self test). No further testing has been done, but all were believe to be working when removed.

The '1U' fans are low profile, designed to fit in a 1U (1 3/4" high) cases. They'll work fine in a regular desktop case, but are a bit noisey compared to a regular fan. You could always buy a desktop fan off eBay if you want them quieter.

They're were all going to go on eBay but thought I'd give you guys a chance first. £20 each, regardless of spec. First come, first served of course.

Cheers, Chris

i'll have couple off you mate, dont care which ones.

dhutch - 7/1/11 at 10:53 PM

Can i be really cheeky and ask for

AMD Athlon 64 3000+ CPU
Gigabyte GA-K8VM800M motherboard

with Corsair 1GB RAM

Else i'll have one any of the 3000+ packages.

I presume you can post?

rf900rush - 7/1/11 at 11:13 PM

If any have a old Parallel printer port I will be interested in one.

Plus can you exept paypal.

Or pm location If not to far could collect.

Thanks Martin

ChrisW - 8/1/11 at 01:59 AM

Martin - I'm in Gerrards Cross, South Bucks. Depending on where you are in Surrey it might be within collection distance. Up to you!

dhutch - I'd prefer to sell them as they are rather than swapping parts, as that's how they were pulled from the working systems. If I start chopping and changing bits I'll loose some confidence in them working correctly.

Yes, I can post at cost price. Yes, Paypal is fine.

Everyone else - I'll have stock check tomorrow, but all sounds fine. You've all got first dibs in the order that you've posted.

Blackbird Rush - 8/1/11 at 09:47 AM

Chris,

Would be interested in the fastest one you have left....

I want to upgrade my current board & processor AMD Semperon 1.85Ghz (are your AMD min 3Ghz?)

Do the motherboards have old type PCI bus's or the newer PCI2 Bus's as i've got older cards, also need IDE bus for Hard disk rather than SATA

Can collect from GX as i drive past every day to the office in Slough.

rf900rush - 8/1/11 at 11:03 AM

Thanks for the IO PCB link. Not seen them that cheap, must be all the M/B lacking old I/O interfaces.

If you have any MSI MS-6741 athlon 64's left , let me know total inc P&P etc and I'll paypal you the funds.

good luck with the fund rasing.

Done that a few times myself.

Feels good to put old "loft junk" to a good project.


Distance is far engough for post to be chaeper/easier. At £5.90 / Gallon makes if more difficult to just pop out to get a bargain.

Yep, thats cool. I dont think there much between them. I guess postage will be about £5 RM Pov-Spec parcels service, u2u me a price.

ChrisW - 10/1/11 at 10:44 AM

Right, I think I've got this in the right order, but please correct me if not.

If still not sold that I would bo ok fo me.

Thanks Martin

ChrisW - 10/1/11 at 02:43 PM

No problem, Martin. Just be aware that someone has cut the blue audio jack off, presumably to reduce the height for the 1U case, so there will be no line in function.

Chris

rf900rush - 10/1/11 at 03:31 PM

Chris.

Thats ok as I don't need sound for my application.

Money Sent Thanks Martin

No probs. I've not got my hands on any bubble wrap yet, so none have been sent just yet. Will try and get out tomorrow to get some.

Hi Chris, did you get a chance to send those boards out yet?

Cheers Si

ChrisW - 20/1/11 at 10:01 PM

Good timing! I've just booked them onto the courier about 20 mins ago. Am going to take them to work tomorrow to be collected from there.

Sorry it's taken me a while, I appreciate I've been a bit slow getting everything together to get these sent out.

Chris

Strontium Dog - 20/1/11 at 11:43 PM

That's great Chris and no worries at all on the time taken!

Thanks again, Si.

dhutch - 3/2/11 at 08:41 AM

Cheers.
