I’ve been going to ewaste for years and I’ve got SO MUCH tech! Over the years I’ve built myself a computer setup that’s strictly ONLY from stuff I’ve found on ewaste! The PC (Case, Motherboard, Ram, CPU, Power supply, SSD, Graphics card, cables, even the screws, were all from different computers and parts I found on ewaste bins and I’ve combined them into this computer!
Now for the whole setup! The keyboard, mouse, batteries for the mouse, Display, Speakers, the Display and power cables, and everything else expect from the mousepad and display stand, are ALL from ewaste!
I don’t use the pc much, but it’s good enough for playing Minecraft, basic video editing and music production. Plus it was all FREE! Also don’t ask why I don’t use the much better graphics card that I found and repaired, (my old a$s motherboard doesn’t boot with it). I also use the bin to hide the cables.
Specs:
2nd Gen Intel Core i5
8GB DDR3 Ram
Nvidia GeForce GT 630
Motherboard: A random Foxconn idek
Apacer 240GB SSD
The PSU was the one that I found with this pc case and I know it’s trash but I won’t replace it even though I have much better ones unless it explodes.
The optical drive is unplugged because idgaf about it.
Display: HP Compaq LA2405X
Mouse: Logitech M185
Keyboard: I genuinely have no idea
Speakers: Some random Kisonli speakers
WiFi adapter: Airlink something with a TP-Link antenna
Here where I live there aren’t any ewaste centres and I’ve been finding this stuff inside ewaste bins outside of shops. That’s why this is a very mediocre PC setup. I wish to go to an ewaste centre at some point, I’ve seen people finding crazy there!
