    What is really sweet is finding the heatsinks that are just solid Cu with Cu fins. The dozen or two I have come across weighed about 20 ounces or so each. Its always fun to open a case and see one!

    Congrats on your find! We enjoy hearing these type stories you make me wanna get into ewaste, don't forget to account for Ebays fees when listing the ram on eBay and Paypal as well. I know what you mean by your job gets in the way of scrapping mine does too but sometimes I just feel like I just want to take the dive into full time srapping.

    Got another $196 today from the last of the copper from this load. It is really adding up. Getting ready to ship off all of the motherboards and such this week. 250 pounds plus of motherboards plus some finger cards and crappy metal attached CPUs.

    Well, about $2500 or so later, I still have a ton of RAM, and lots of other goodies to sell on E-bay.

    Who ever was intereste in the RAM, here are the specs on one of the types that I have.

    It is DDR server RAM. Wintec 1GB PC2700 DDR-333MHz ECC Registered CL2.5 184-Pin DIMM Memory Module Mfr P/N 35954682-L

    Here is a link to a company selling it for $50 a stick. Memory > Server Memory > Wintec 35954682-L - Wintec 1GB PC2700 DDR-333MHz ECC Registered CL2.5 184-Pin DIMM Memory Module Mfr P/N 35954682-L

    There was another one selling it for over $150 a stick.

    This one is the cheapest anywhere at just over $25 each. 1GB 184p PC2700 CL2.5 18c 128x4 Registered ECC DDR DIMM T027 RFB, Infineon/Wintec, ADJ, 3C954741B-L[1]=Computer&gdftrk=gdfV24137_a_7c1396_a_7c4973_a_7c0 16718

    I am working on selling some, but did not have all of the specs until tonight. I spent a good hour researching it. Well worth it.

    I can now advertise it properly.
