What's the Oldest Hardware in Your System right now?

[someone]

hmmm lets see..i have some 10 Year old sata cables 

[TetraSky]

My whole computer, desk, monitor, printer, etc.. was bought around 2009/2010, so it's that old. Well, I guess I AM using an old AMD Athlon XP 2800+ based computer as a foot rest under my desk, which also has a very old 15+ years old 3com ethernet PCI adapter in it. (should still be in working condition too, just ain't no way I'm using it)

 

 

-snip-

A Logitech MX518 I've had for at least 6 or 7 years. The film on the black stuff on the sides peeled off but it doesn't even make any difference. Great mouse!

I agree! I'm using the MX518 too, nice mouse.

Got lucky and my current rig is a G75VW notebook...

My only excuse of ancient is the rig itself......

 

Intel P4 3ghz

3gb DDR2

Chinese/dubious GT630

OMG look at that power supply...the transformers make buzzing noises lol

Case Original Gateway 505GR

MOBO - Elitegroup ECS idunno how that matters but it has PCIe 2.0 xP

 

thats my "Goodwill" rig

[Blecter]

Logitech Wingman Formula GP, and my stereo. Both well over 10 years old. Both still work great. Can't complain!

[Joshua Ondangan]

probably power supply since I normally tend to upgrade to the next big thing whenever new stuff came out. although I did skip ivy e since they were still in 2011 socket so no go for me.

Dude we have the same keyboard. I just upgraded to this one after the older one ascended into heaven in a chariot of fire .

And the oldest part of my rig is the optical drive that still uses an IDE cable . 

I don’t ever plan on getting rid of it. It looks ghetto as balls sticking in to the motherboard when all the other cables are arranged so well.

[TheKDub]

Either the shitty stock dell keyboard, or my monitor. (Keyboard is at least 8 years old, no clue on the monitor.)

[The Crazed Child]

Still using a SATA 2 SSD as my boot drive, and it's absolutely perfect.

That was a terrible Gif!

[Under_Score]

Not sure, TBH.

 

Fascinating. What a great contribution to the discussion.

[Antibull]

My HP monitor, 5 years old, Traded it with my brother for my medion monitor wich is 10 month old, but the hp is bigger

[Gontier]

I don't use optical drive bays, so the computer I built for my mom in 2011 was missing one. It was on an ASRock P67 Fatal1ty motherboard, which for some reason had an IDE cable slot, so I threw an old Lite-On ODD in there. The thing is going on 15 this year I think.

Yes, because your reply to me was soooooo much better.  :mellow:

 

But I did look, and it appears that my SoundBlaster 16 (ISA, of course) is the oldest thing in HELIOS. Like 1997-ish.

[Dude]

My motherboard which is one of the very first Z77 motherboards - Nearly four years old.

[B@ttery]

My Bitfenix: Merc Alpha case is so old... I bought it when they released them. I just hate that case now day's.

[johnny5c]

My Antec Performance II case from 2002, bought originally for a P4 Northwood build and after many reincarnations is now home to my i5/z87 rig.

[GhettoDetonator]

I have an IDE CD/DVD drive

[KingKeith55]

My 20 year old CRT Monitor.

[Extingquish]

can't remember if I posted here before but:

 

[BirdyTheMighty]
