I will try selling them now (here and on Craigslist), and in a month I will try selling them at UCSC, and after that I will sell them on eBay. I&#8217;m selling everything for at least half as much as I got them for. Prices are negotiable.<br \/>\n<b>Microtek C586p 15&#8243; LCD monitor<\/b>, with VGA output only. 1024&#215;768. It makes a nice secondary monitor, although it might be slightly dim in comparison to other LCDs. It&#8217;s got a scratch on its gray border but that&#8217;s purely cosmetic. <b>$75<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\n<b>Kingston 512MB DDR333 (PC2700) SDRAM<\/b> of which I have <b>two<\/b>. They&#8217;re fine sticks of RAM which have served me well for a few years. I recently memtested them and they&#8217;re completely fine. Great supplementary RAM for any desktop that&#8217;s a few years old or more. <b>$40 each<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\n<b>AMD Athlon XP 2600+<\/b>. A great upgrade for any slower Athlon XP, and it works fine. Still is fine for day-to-day use, and even lets you play modern games pretty well. <b>$50<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\n<b>ASUS nVidia GeForce4 MX 4000<\/b>. An utterly baseline AGP video card with 64MB VRAM, but has DVI, VGA, and composite video output &#8211; so if you&#8217;re looking for dual display action, here&#8217;s your ticket. I bought it as a cheap replacement, and unless you&#8217;re doing anything related to gaming or other high-end stuff, it&#8217;s a nice step above integrated video for older computers. <b>$10<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\n<b>Generic GeForce4 MX 4000<\/b>. A video card I got back in 2003. Works fine. AGP, 128MB VRAM, with DVI, VGA, and S-Video output. Why was I using the previous card instead? Because I thought this one was broken,  but it turns out it was my motherboard that was (which, of course, I am not selling). Although quite baseline it&#8217;s got more video memory, so it might be slightly more suited for gaming, etc. <b>$20<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\n<b>Thermaltake Polo735 heatsink and fan<\/b>. It&#8217;s utterly massive but gets the job done, with a dense copper base and a very strong fan. Has a temp sensor, but also comes with a knob that can be attached to your case&#8217;s 2.5&#8243; (floppy) port to manually control it &#8211; that&#8217;s what I did, because it can get pretty loud cooling down an Athlon XP 2600+. Can mount onto K7, K8, and P4 systems, from what I can tell. <b>$20<\/b> OBO.<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re local (Bay Area), I will help install any of these components for an extra $5 to $10. If you&#8217;re not local, we can talk about shipping, etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I gots computer parts!
