How do you test ram, CPUs and hard drives for resale?

You also need to make sure that the motherboard is compatible with the CPU. There are many types of socket 775 for example, and they are not all compatible with all boards. To test any Intel desktop CPU's that are worth re-selling, you could end up with close to 10 different machines.
