So this is what I got:

 

Some 6 core xeon (3.8ghz all core iirc)

Some weaker 6 core xeon

Xeon e3 1220v3 iirc 

Mini PC (i5 12600T)

1gb Pi4 and 8gb Pi5

Dual opteron poweredge from 2008.

Some GPUs; HD7770 1GB, GTX 650 Ti Boost 1GB, Quadro P2000, GTS 6600 512MB [this one is funky though, it's a 512mb card with a proper nvidia branded blower cooler]

 

I don't really know what to do with them as most of the things, such as plex / running a nas and AI, are either covered by my nas or main pc and I don't really play retro games.

R9 5950X | RTX 3090 Ti | 32GB 4000Mhz RAM | BeQuiet Dark Power 13 1000W | Asus B550-E | WD Blue SN570 2 TB | Samsung 960 Pro 1TB | 48 TB NAS |

 

 

 

 

 

Don't forget to mark the solution!

Some of the CPUs could become secondary NAS units just for files you wont use that much or to be doubly safe and sure files like photos or videos of family are secured

With the Pi ones you could make an SSD mini NAS that can be moved from place to place more easily like this

Or go wild with some more exotic projects like these

The GPUs.. I guess the quadro could be used in the secondary NAS or in some work oriented build like a CAD machine but the rest I cant see a use for as they are old and dont have much in terms of specs

What if YOU were cake all along?
