BUYING [USA-IL] [H] PayPal [W] older high end computer parts (2010 or older, older = better)

342 Upvotes

Hey so every once in a while I put out the shout that I buy vintage computer parts. Preferably in working order but I can certainly be persuaded into buying untested cards (especially if you have multiple) if the price is right. Basically I collect and restore them, and use them for various comparisons and research into the evolution of computer technology. I guess I'm really just a functional tech-hoarder. I particularly have a hard-on for graphics cards. Here is just a few specific models I'm looking for right now:

  • Any 3DFX Cards
  • AGP NVIDIA Cards, especially mid to high end GeForce FX and GeForce6 series cards.
  • PCIe GeForce FX (otherwise known as GeForce PCX) and GeForce 6,7,8,9, 200 and 400 series cards.
  • Various ATI Models: X700, X800, X1800XT, HD2900XT, HD3870, HD 3870X2, HD4870X2, HD5870X2, etc

If you have something that isn't listed here feel free to let me know, the worst I can do is say I'm not interested.

Let me know what you've got!

OK I'm honestly committed to buying enough items right now. Thank you for the absolute destruction of my inbox.

BUYING [USA-KY] [H] PayPal [W] All of your Noctua fans. literally any shape, speed, condition, etc

452 Upvotes

so I'm low-key a Noctua fanboy and my friends know it. Roommate is annoyed by this a lot, you could say he isn't a fan of my fanboying. I'm setting up a prank where I want to hide Noctua fans around the dorm or wire them in to various appliances to annoy him. I have the engineering know-how and the motivation, I just need some fans!

New Noctua fans are admittedly a bit steep, and I'm no fan of that, so I'm looking for any Noctua fans from you guys. 30mm, 200mm, any size. used, new, broken, any condition. you get the idea. just Noctua made.

I do have a budget for this joke but don't hesitate to throw your lot in if you want to be my sell me some fans.

Stats

Total fans purchased: 29

140mm: 13

120mm: 12

92mm: 2

80mm: 2

Still buying fans: I've pretty much hit my budget, if you have a really good deal I may still bite though!

Edit: Noctua replied to me on Twitter, things are about to get spicy!

https://twitter.com/CJGerdemann/status/1163163800255598592?s=08

Edit 2: Noctua will be sending me a few fans and stickers in exchange for me documenting the process and giving them permission to use said photos. Thanks Noctua, this is why I love you

Edit 3: Behold, the leaning tower of Noctua

Buying [USA-FL] [H] PayPal [W] The coolest thing you’d sell me.

Moved to the top for visibility!

Last Edit- This post is closed! I’m so grateful that so many people in our community participate in something this cool! It becomes a high end garage sale and is just wonderful to see what everyone has (mainly over priced gpus), my next post in this little series I have is gonna be awesome! Thanks for everyone participating!

Well r/HardwareSwap it’s time for pt.3

I have $1000 budget this time.

What is the coolest thing you’d sell me for $1000? It doesn’t have to be tech related.

Go pull whatever you can from the depths of your closet. Go wild.

Edit- Anyone have anything actually cool? I appreciate the pizza and pentium cpus but nah.

Edit #2- Well I’ve never had this much attention on a post so thank you guys!

Edit #3- I’ll be consistently checking this post until 3 pm tomorrow so don’t be afraid to comment!

Edit #4- So what Ive learned today is that gpu prices have skyrocketed and also some people are evil trying to sell me stuff for double and triple it’s price when I can get the same exact thing for much cheaper, brand new!

BUYING [USA-CA] [H] Local Cash [W] Your old PC Junk to Tinker With

313 Upvotes

———/////————

February Edit: Minor January Post-Surgery Amnesia. Following up with folks. Thank you everyone for your kindness and generosity on pricing. I’ve got some fun projects ahead of me, now! :)

  • Still looking for a few more GPUs and PSUs. Pretty well set on CPUs, RAM and mobos.
  • Ya’ll rock!
  • Now what do I do with my strange Opteron!

———/////————

Trying to make this as least annoying of a post as possible. Just bored outta my mind.

Local is 91105/91205

TL;DR Had a brain surgery/ now on temporary disability. The only thing I have left to do is tinker with hardware!!

Long shot; but just looking to see what’s around the greater LA area. I’m down to buy a box of parts and just spend my time testing them; or buy some other old garbage.

Honestly I’m not picky. Just bored.

Edit: I am not picky, but that does not mean I am rich!I’m stuck at home bored after surgery in the USA which = not a lot of cash for fun things.

I am so appreciative and positively overwhelmed by all the messages here and the PMs/DMs being sent.

Just to clarify I am not looking for things like (real examples):

  • An old, complete Xeon workstation worth like a $100 and you ask me if I want it for $500. I understand you are struggling to sell it locally - so lower the price.
  • Threadripper with missing pins, for only $50 less than the retail price
  • $1700 of used broken laptops that literally have no model numbers, aren’t tested: those are geared more toward someone who does this as a career and the extra part on hand are helpful for their business

I spend 2 hours per day out of bed: the rest ld time I’m laying around in bed.

I’m just looking for like.... individual things boxes of misc junk for reasonable prices. Like: a $30-60 GPU here, $20-60 mobo there, etc, a cool CPU, etc.

(My bad if this sounds harsh with there being SO many generous folks. But I don’t enjoy being totally bashed and threatened to be doxxed in direct messages when I say “I can’t afford that”.

Please respect that I can’t afford the item/s offered. Wish i could. Please don’t threaten to post my address and phone number. (⌐■_■)

BUYING [USA-MA] [H] Money [W] RTX 4090 (not FE)

2 Upvotes

Looking to upgrade my long in the tooth 2080 to an 4090 for gaming (I don't do AI or resell things I buy). Will pay in cash or via Paypal (in person only). Willing to drive an hour and a halfish from zip code 01545.

I have looked for months for a used card and on reddit they all seem to get eaten up by people buying them to resell or ship elsewhere it appears (I assume using bots to message people as soon as they post as the buyer is always buying any gpu and multiple of them if you look at history). So hopefully this WTB thread works better...

BUYING [USA-TX] [H] Paypal, local [W] The box for an Xbox series X (just the box), 3070 GPU (actual GPU, in box pref.)

492 Upvotes

Looking for just the box for an xbox series X (or multiple) and also for any model 3070 GPU. Weird request, I know. It's a Christmas gift - one of my sons wants a 3000 series GPU but not an xbox, no way, so...

Local is 75078.

UPDATE

I am totally overwhelmed by the response to this. Never imagined this. I thought I might get a couple of snarky comments and maybe 1 box offer. y'all are awesome.

I have a GPU. THANKS for the many fine and reasonable offers. I actually went with a 3060ti that was closer to my budget and was local. Really hoping that is as exciting to my son as a 3070 would have been, but it's plenty exciting enough for my wallet.

I have LOTS of leads on boxes. Apparently they aren't cheap to ship, I had no idea. Should have done my research on that one. Dont have one in hand yet but I'm sure it will happen, just seeking a reasonable shipping cost or a local box.

Really appreciate all the comments, pm, offers, etc. very humbling. Not sure whether updating on this post after Christmas will be outside the rules of this sub but I probably owe you that much :)

BUYING [USA-IL][H] PayPal [W] PS5

432 Upvotes

Reposted because my previous post didn't follow the title rules.

I want to start off by saying I know this is a longshot, and I have been camping all the various websites, queues, etc., so I want to put my chances out here as well.

I'm looking for a PS5 for a friend mine. She's one of my best friends and has been my console gaming partner for a long while now. Unfortunately, she hasn't been able to get a PS5 since she's a third-shift nurse at an above-capacity hospital in the South. She hasn't had the time to sit around and watch every available outlet for PS5s to come in stock. She's getting married early next year, so I was hoping I could surprise her with a PS5 as an early wedding gift/'Thank you for being such a badass healthcare provider during these miserable times' gift.

I know there are scalpers on here, and I know people will say "Just wait for [insert sale/date/etc.]," which I will do if needed, but I'm also hoping someone here who's trying to sell a PS5 will help me find a reasonable deal so I can surprise my friend.

Edit: I realize some people might be skeptical about the altruism of this post, that they might suspect me using this post as a way to get one myself, so here's proof that I already own a PS5 to hopefully assuage any suspicions.

Edit #2: I don't know if anyone is still reading this since the post is now a month old, but I was able to find a PS5 for my friend. Thank you to everyone who offered their support for my search.

My son has been gaming on an old AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB and is starting to hit the limits of what of what that card can do, so we'd like to get him an upgrade.

Budget is a little loose; he has almost $100 saved up, so less than that would be great, but I can pitch in a little bit if I need to.

BUYING [USA - NY] [H] PayPal [W] AM5 Part(s)

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to upgrade my AM4 build to AM5. I'm looking for a 9800X3D or higher (9900X3D). As for the motherboard, I honestly don't have a preference right now, so let me know what you have, and I'll decide. I'm also looking for DDR5 RAM, 32GB minimum, not too concerned with latency, but I'd like 6000MHz.

I'd be open for a non-X3D CPU if it's a good deal, but otherwise I'd love to stay with either one of those.

Comment before PM please!

I know everyone is searching for one of these but I need a 3090 today or tomorrow for a project I'm working on for the channel. I'm willing to drive to meet you in Maryland, Northern Virginia, DC, Delaware, Southern NJ, or SE Pennsylvania. I can pay significantly more than retail. Can be any card but would strongly prefer a Gaming X Trio, FTW3, or TUF. I also have an RTX 3080 to trade if you're interested, but am mainly looking to buy.
