So round here 50% of housing are rentals. University goes out people move out. so I scored a socket 754 computer everything works to my knowledge besides the mobo. I also scored a microsoft optical mouse and keyboard both wireless that use a single reciever. just need a psu for the computer and a new mobo which a friend has. I also got a bunch of case fans and other parts misc parts. the case had a 250gb hd that is sata 1 along with a geforce fx 5900 xt. so I'm in heaven even if they aren't top of the line. I do love my amd 64 processors. I'm going to get it working and give it a new home with a friend.

and have it fold right?

up to him if I give it to him lol. But possibly. It won't fold much better than my athlon xp probably. I'll put it on there for him though.

is your new friend me? cause that wouldnt hurt at all

hehe, I love the Idea of you waist deep in the bins ^^

But seriously, its worth it for that good free stuff

Anything interesting/incriminating on the hard drive?

Dan

max your computer is better man. think about it.

Free stuff is still free stuff ;) Make sure to give those unwanted parts a good home

And keep all that stuff out of the landfills.

i never even thought about checking out the bins.. you would think some treehugger students would have a recycling program set up for misc computer equipment.

Got a friends socket 754 asus k8n-e booted it up installed windows, got it all set up and put some games on it and made a deal for some parts I didn't find to get a cheap price. Overclocked the processor to 2.2 from 2.0 and now he has a better gaming computer.

lucky you!!!!! NICE GRAB!!!

SERVER IT!!!!

I've done my share of dumpster diving for computer parts.

There are some really neat deals to find at times.

My son just garbaged picked a socket-370 1.0Ghz HP Vectra this past week with two 20Gb HDDs and a 52x CD-RW. So, out with the IBM Aptiva AMD 500Mhz Chomper OC'ed to 525Mhz.

Of course it's not the great find you had found, but he did get a complete system along with the Windows CD and such.

thats a nice find you had too. Today stuff we were supposed to haul off I found a nice high back leather chair for my computer. just needed to be dusted off, it'd been sitting in the hallway for months. The job has its perks for sure. ( too bad I just realized this is posted in the wrong forum lol)

I spent a summer working for my college's service center and I had a supervisor who was a bit of a redneck... she pulled a hat out of the dumpster and put it right on her head.... discusting.

Though I did find lots of loose change while cleaning rooms
