Sadly a lot of times people throw away PC's simply because their OS isn't working like it did when it was new. My neighbor threw away a perfectly good laptop a few years ago, one that was socketable and about a 2013 or 14 model, and the ONLY thing I found wrong with it was Windows 7 was completely locked up from viruses and junk/malware etc. He had stuff pilled up in his truck ready for the dump when I happened by and offered my help. I instantly noticed 3 printers, several old TV's, two computers and a monitor thrown in his truck along with lots of other junk. I took the printers (all sold together on craigslist for $100) and kept the laptop and monitor and upgraded it with Intel wireless AC and a SSD + more ram and a much faster CPU. Total upgrade cost was about $70 considering I already had a spare Samsung 840 Pro SSD. The stuff people throw away jeez. Oh, and my Father just threw away a HP 7520 AIO printer all because it had a paper jam (not joking).

They were a bit slow in the store but those fuckers were never cleaned out.those will be caked(and are) in dust. I think a clean up and they will run fine for some old PCs. I don’t expect much from the gpu because they would mainly need the cpu power from just running programs not too intensive(just under strain during heavy loads)

This is awesome! We have junkyards around me in the states called "U pull it", which has the same setup. It's nice to do if you are handy, as you can work at your own pace and often get all the little odds and ends that usually get thrown away, like interior pieces or something as simple as a hood prop. Sure you could buy new but why when you can the fully functional OEM one for 1/4th of the price.

I've had that ram issue on an Intel H55 board before. Good parts hunting!

Here in the Philippines there is a huge market for surplus computer components and systems. Almost all of them come from scrapyards and recycling centers like this, with most of them originating from Korea, but parts from Japan and Taiwan can also be found too. There are thousands of internet cafes and businesses that run with imported computers or systems built with used components. From motherboards, power supplies, graphics cards, laptops, monitors, peripherals, you name it. Almost anything computer related that's used can be bought. You can pick up a used mining RX 570 for around 70-80 USD, motherboards from 775 to 1151 for 30 USD, or even a 500-600w power supply from a name brand such as FSP, Seasonic, and others for around 12 USD or less. Now these may not sound that good of a deal to those who watch this channel on a regular basis, but take note that there are so many shops here in the Philippines that sell these components making them extremely accessible and readily available. Even those who live far from Manila (Where most of these shops are) can order them online via Shopee or Lazada (Equivalent to Ebay, Amazon, Aliexpress) for the same price plus maybe 1-2 USD for shipping.

@@rencm04 Ah sorry. When I meant by market, I mean that selling used computer parts is a big business in the Philippines. But to answer your question, there are many shops all over the country where you can buy parts. Places such as Gilmore are a good example. However, the best deals can be found online on Tipidpc.com or Facebook Marketplace. I would suggest looking online first before buying as that's the way to get the cheapest prices.

A note for the kingston life time warranty. It is covered as long as they still have available ram sticks to replace them in stock. I had a conversation with one of the warranty guys on the phone, they did also replace an old DDR2 1gb 800mhz ram stick that died on me from an old pc. They will ask you to send in the faulty ram stick also, but I didnt have to since it was DDR2 and they just wanted to get rid of the last few sticks they had.

One good thing about computing hardware/software not taking major leaps forwards is that it allows the rest world to keep up.

I got an old PC from a scrapyard recently but they're actually not allowed to sell or give out anything. Still on the lookout for proper places that sell PC junk in Austria, all I know of is a center that already resells old electronics which I haven't checked out yet.

Since I have an access to the "pc scrap room" from where decommissioned PC is going to the kind of facility rhat can be seen in the video, I'm usually getting those kind of parts for free, generally there are mostly socket 775 that I can't see a point in taking, from time to time I'm finding 1156, 1155 custom PCs and oftenly a dell or lenovo prebuilds with 1150 socket and an i3 4th gen, usually without the memory or storage drive, but still worth taking.

Ohh yeah! This it´s definetely why I sub this channel, nice job getting dirty to get the money. Cheers mate.

Check the AsRock board again with both sticks in it and look if the amount of RAM is right. The board probably just used the memory installed in B1 and didn´t recognize the stick in A1 as it´s probably dead.
