The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

Free, to good home, you pay shipping, lower 48. USPS should be around $3?
Used but looks new, black Caseology Wave Series cell phone case for Samsung Galaxy S7.

I have several Intel Pentium 4 Dual Core E5300 CPUs free for the taking. Also, I have a few PNY and EVGA Geforce GT 610 video cards with 1GB memory each, all free for the taking. You need to pay for shipping, though.

UPDATE: All been claimed. Until next time!

I think you mean Pentium Dual-Core E5300, there was never a dual core Pentium 4 :p , not even the same architecture.

Glad someone got use out of them, I usually end up sending all Core 2 CPUs slower than an E6420 or E8400 to GW or recycling.

If you want to pay the freight, you can have them; But you have to take the whole machine, I won't part them out.

These PCs are from restaurants, which were used as DVRs and have various slow C2Ds, low RAM and unknown HDDs. I don't offer them normally because they're covered in grease and caked in dust inside and out, and I don't want to clean them because it takes hours.

I do know they all have mostly the same motherboard, a Gigabyte GA-945GCM-S2C which maxes out at 2 GB of RAM and an E6700. It also has the weird FSB overclock feature which allows it to use 1333 MHz FSB CPUs up to the E8500, but it tends to be unstable with an E8400 in my testing.

I have a UPS account with daily rates, so I think that should be doable. You got PM. (y)
 
Hey guys. I'm looking for a pair of dual molex to a single 6-pin pcie power cable from evga preferably. I know that they come in a bunch of the cards and I always throw them away and now I need a pair to power 2 low power gpus. Shipping to 32547. Let me know what you guys have.
 
anyone have athlon ii or phenom ii x3 or x4 cpus with heatsinks? Can pay a bit extra on top of shipping. Can get them for $17 on ebay shipped so anything less than that you got a deal :)

I have one that came with a 1060 i used to have. All black with black connectors. Your welcome to it if you want it.
 
I am looking for a standard 4 or more network switch or router and I need a pci-e card 2.0 or 3 usb card. I have given away tons here it's just a little project I have been tinkering with and my funds for projects are real low right now.
 
send me your address and ill ship it. Ill send you the invoice for whatever it is. Probably less than a buck.

If you are still in need, I’m sure I have something in my crate full of routers....any particular options or needs?

Hey all anyone have a ps2 -> USB converter lying around?

just be aware that not all mice can be directly converted, there are passive adapter for multi protocol mice (did it originally come with adapter?) and active adapters with a micro controller inside.

I need one for a keyboard actually. I don't like having to remove my main PC's KB to the test bench for the odd mobo that doesn't have a PS/2 port.
 
Pm me your address. I can send out something. I have a wrt54g that won’t work with ddwrt I have no use for.
 
This is the only kind that I have:

same thing goes for keyboard. you cant jsut convert any usb to ps2 or vice versa. If you knew if keyboard came with adapter, you will know for sure.

Kind of amazing most mobos still have PS/2. I know why but you would think a better solution would be implemented by now.

What is lacking about a PS/2 connection? It works, it has low latency, and most computers come with a wired keyboard of some sort any way, so it's not like most motherboards are using up the entire I/O shield anyway.

I agree though that USB keyboards are sufficiently ubiquitous that PS/2 can seem archaic.

Not lacking so much that it has been around for forever. Sorta like the legacy PCI slot. Just slowly gets phased out over time.
