I have recently changed my PC.
I have recycled many components such as hard drive which ive connected as an external.
But there seems so much left.
Is there anyway i can make use of the CPU or find an interface for the RAM which is different.
If not is there anywere that trades 2nd hand computer components.
Thanks People :)

You could sell the individual components on ebay, it's amazing what crap people on there will buy.

not really. you can reuse the fans, the case, the power supply, the optical and regular disk drives, but the mother board, ram, and processor are the reason you upgraded. you could add some cheap components to your old stuff to make a second comp for simple tasks like roms, internet, etc. apart from that, sell it on craigslist.com i'd say

definately sell the parts on ebay - ppl pay over the odds for processors and AGP graphics cards that are no longer available via retail to avoid having to pay out megabugs for a completely new system.

ebay. It's not crap- I bought a pc case off there. If ppl part with money then you know its going to a good home, and what is 'old' to you is the makings of some kids' dream christmas.
