The [H]ardForum Perpetual Freebies Thread

Anyone have any dead Nvidia blower style cards laying around? Looking for one or two of the 65mm delta blower fans from them. 12v 4 pin, pretty much 660 -1080ti would likely have them. I have some on order but slow boat.
 
I don't even know if this is still considered freebie territory, but does anyone have a 250~ gb nvme drive? Any length is fine, learned the hard way my boards m.2 ports are nvme only and not sata compatible.
 
Have a couple of heatsinks available for the cost of postage. Send zip code with PM. Will have more stuff listed. Anything left will be scaped.

Do anyone have these Antec screws and grommets?

View attachment 806211
If nobody has them, you can go to the hardware store and get 6/32" x 5/8" bolts and some generic anti-vibration grommets. That's what I did for my NSK2400 case that uses the same ones. I think it was around $5-6 total to mount 4 hard drives.

Keystone Electronics also has these on Digikey for $1ea. https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/keystone-electronics/775/3465645
Might work.. possibly too short though. The hardware store is the better bet.

I ended up using Amazon for my Thermaltake Tsunami. Searched for "screws for hdd with anti vibration" Measured my existing screws, compared it to the size on zon, it was not perfect but it worked. I am including this specific link because the 3rd pic made me chuckle. https://www.amazon.com/Mounting-Absorption-Vibration-Computer-Accessories/dp/B0GWMH34TJ?

By any chance anyone have a older unlocked smartphone in decent condition with decent battery? Replaceable battery option would be awesome if possible. Looking to just get a public facing number on it to avoid giving out my personal number for any signups and what not. Unfortunately most places I try to use my google voice number (AI LLM sites) get rejected since it's a VOIP number -_-. F that, I ain't giving them my private number, they got enough info from citizens as is. Was thinking of using a phone with a cheap Ultra Mobile plan to have something to use for spam.

Walmart has some tracfones for like $30. No idea on the service as I buy these for my dad when he is outside working and uses them for music. If something happens to it I just get another one.

I have a unlocked OnePlus 8 but back is cracked. Screen is good, battery still holds a charge. I bought this for my 12 y/o nephew and just upgraded him to a Pixel 10a. I transferred his data and am waiting for him to give me the okay to give it away. It's any day now, will let you know soon.
 
Does anyone have a spare LGA775 45nm Core 2 Quad they're not using? Q9450, Q9550, Q9650 would be preferred. Happy to pay a few $ for it. My faithful Q6600 had a spectacular failure (2 of the capacitors on the back actually fell off) and I'd like to keep the old system running. I might as well replace it with a faster SKU while I'm at it. I tried ordering from eBay but the Q9550 I paid for ended up being a Q8200 when it arrived.

Yea, unfortunately if my research is accurate, can't unlock them unless you've been using them for a year or so. Thanks for the idea though.
