1GB Hynix PC2-5300 Laptop RAM (2 of). £10 each or £15 for both. Free shipping anywhere in the world (within reason!)


1.7Ghz Celeron T1400 dual core laptop processor - £20, working fine. Shipping as per above.


PC-2700 DDR-2 256MB Laptop Ram (1 of). Free for the cost of shipping, or just send me something amusing in return.


50GB Seagate IDE Laptop HDD. Just offer me something for this if you're interested, because I'm really not fussed.

512MB XFX Radeon 4650 - £20, shipping free within UK, probably about £5 to USASOLD

128MB ATI FireMV 2200 PCI Dual DVI Graphics card - a bit of an anomaly as it's a workstation card, but ideal for anyone who wants a low profile, low power dual output dvi card - and doesn't expect too much of it. Again, open to offers, but would accept less than £10 I guess. Ships with all cables and adapters.SOLD

Mesh Quad core PC, 3GB Ram, Q6500, dual SLI'd Radeon 9600's, Vista Business (I think). £250 ono. For sale for a friend so this might be taken down. Would POTENTIALLY consider breaking for parts but only if enough buyers were found to justifySOLD

Chimei 22 inch monitor. 1680 x 1050, good condition, £50 onoSOLD

Logitech Z4 Stereo speakers, perfect condition £25. One set in tatty condition (small drill holes in subwoofer case, slightly loose remote cable), £15. Only one available for sale.SOLD


Celestion DL8 Series Two 150w speakers - good sound but one badly damaged cabinet. Perfect for a garage, workshop or similar lo-fi man den. £15


NAD Stereo amp - 30w, loose power cable, free to a good home.

Oh, and the real weird items here:


4 x 10" VGA CRT monitors - free to a good home. Ideal for that ghetto mod you've been planning? All are 800x600, work fine, look very 'Fallout'. Open frame, probably originally from cashpoints or engineering works or something like that? Open casing. Pictures on request. These items are I think 4Kg each.


ANALOGUE OSCILLOSCOPE - Open University, Includes signal generator, some missing screws. Lighter than you might think for shipping. £25.


OFFERS WELCOME. Please bear in mind I am just getting rid of this stuff because I have to move, and the less I take the better. If shipping is not specified it will be calculated on interest being confirmed, but it won't be mental.

Isn't there someone coming to the US from the UK sometime soon? :whistler:

I could get more for it but it only cost me that much from a guy at the pub. It's low frequency but it's a good bit of kit - useful enough simply as a 5/12v supply for testing...

They still use Great British Pounds in the UK, not Euros. And the pound seems to be doing pretty well.

I wouldn't consider it unless someone wanted the rest - and you're just looking at the easy to sell parts. You could potentially get the whole thing for 200 though, I'll ask.

Mayyybe lol....

Actually, would the Oscilloscope be of some use re: PSU reviews? Forgive my ignorance but pretty much all the reviews I've done to date have been cosmetic as opposed to electronic

Yes it can be used for PSU reviews to measure ripple. Kayin has done it in the past.

Way too low frequency for that sort of application! A 10+Ghz scope (what you'd need for a processor) is very specialised... And I'm not sure what tests you'd even perform with it...

Have I maybe missed out on the point of what tests it could perform?

Does that laptop IDE drive use a conventional ide ribbon, or require an adaptor?

I've sent you a PM about the PCI graphics card (I didn't specify which card in the PM - I mean the older one)

Would also appreciate pics of the monitor :P

I'll get some pics together for ya, the laptop hard drive might be staying because I'm yet to wipe it of data - it needs an adapter

If you were in the states I'd take those 10" CRTs off your hands. Not really interested in having it shipped across the pond though.

Some updates:

2 X 512mb Geforce 9600GT - £35 each, as with everything else open to offers on these

Edit - £35 is probably a bit steep. One of you nice guys can have em for 30 each, or 50 for two...

Stability of the supplied voltage under load. Check out HardOCP's PSU testing methodology for some more specific pointers. They really put them through hell and back...rather literally, actually..well, an oven at 45C, not hell, but they only have so much time for the review. :P

OH. I read CPU, not PSU for some reason?!? :? Oh yeah it'd be well good for that. No storage on this one though.
