    Default What to do with my old system

    Just upgraded my system and I have the motherboard, cpu, and ram available. Free but you will have to pay all shipping charges or pickup from the Seattle/Tacoma area.

    EVGA NFORCE 680I SLI MB REV D
    D- CORE 2 QUAD 2.40GHZ Q6600 8M 1066MHZ STEP G
    8GB RAM, 4x 2GB.DD2.DIMM.I

    It was usable for 5-boxing with a (not included) GTX 465 graphics card, but it would lag quite a bit with all 5 toons in a busy town such as Stormwind.

    Free? If I read that right, I'll take it!

    I have a son that could use it, if Carbs hasn't snatched it yet.
    I am in Olympia.

    I can come by and pick it up anytime. Just need to know where.
    I don't want to take from Carbs though if he really wants it.

    Go ahead and take it norrin. It sounds like you need it more than I.

    Old systems can always be turned into linux backup servers.

    Or, get a video capture card, a DVI/HDMI/VGA-splitter for your monitor cable and use it as a fraps machine/streaming encoder.

    That's what I'm planning to do

    Turn it into a HTPC. Hook it to your TV and enjoy!
