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

[Timmy-P]

A PS/2 keyboard. Up until recently, I used an old CRT monitor that was just as old, and had to downsample to match my primary display of 1280*1024.

The case; I ultra-ghetto'd a new computer into an HP Pavillion a6177c case.

Literally no room, I have to keep the H100i's rad outside the case

[SkilledRebuilds]

All I got that counts is a 17" 1280x1024 secondary monitor hooked up to my main rig.

 

My Retro parts ie:(K6 CPU's + 3DFX cards and the Intellimouse) are not part of any rig yet...

I've got a Hauppauge WinTV HVR-4000 card, i use the IR feature for remote control of stuff like XBMC (Kodi)

ps/2 keyboard which I've had since my win 3.1 pc, I've found that it is way more sensitive to keystrokes than newer keyboards and that it is better for playing games on than some gaming keyboards, plus the fact that being so old it has a lot more shortcut keys, which I can bind to do pretty much anything.

One of my newer keyboards which I've stopped using compared to my old one (also my first).

Oldest thing is probably my old Staples mousepad. Got it in the early 2000's. I never had any problems with, never really considered getting a new one and probably won't until it falls apart.

Also another reason why I haven't replaced it is I haven't found another plain red mousepad that I like.

Oldest part inside my computer is my Phenom II 965. But I have a 8350 on the brown truck right now.

i sitll use my AMD 7870 OC from sapphire and some dell speakers and my 5 yr old keyboard which is gud now too

[LukaP]

a 10ish years old 300GB HDD and a really old VGA LCD, but its 90Hz overclocked, so...

[xtasemusic]

My PCI audio interface. I will have to say farewell since X99 doesnt have PCI no more ! 

[Spev]

Pretty much my entire PC is from 2011. However I am just recently upgrading now, and will probably have everything replaced around when skylake launches.

[Agent 47]

That would be probably my Frontech Mouse!

I know it's Frontech i'll buy a new one soon.

Nothing, everything is brand new. I love my Pentium 4. :lol:

I had that in my old PC which I had for 10 years 

[FluffiestPond]

Your mom... Nah nah I joke

 

Up until recently I had a ribbon SATA connector as a temporary solution to breaking the modern one

This is the 5.25" High Density Floppy disk drive from my first real PC-purchase back in 1988. It has been with me, and installed at least once, in every single pc-case I've owned since then. As of late I've chosen to keep it offline, and for the last 3 or 4 months it's been out and about ... as I am practically never using it for anything other than demonstration purposes (and to see if it's still working).

Dat beige beast looks awesome. i would like one in black for my PC

[Yoinkerman]

Either my 500gb hard drives(right before Thailand flooded), or my dvd drive, I'm not sure which is older.

[Nuluvius]

My mouse mat which is now around 16 years old. It's been with me through some of the very best and some of the very worst times of my life.

I'm actually looking for one of those, I've got loads of the 3.25" floppy disks but the drive for them hasn't been around for years.

I have an 18 y/o PC lying around. It's got a 2.8 GHz Pentium 4,a GeForce 5200, 2 GB of DDR-400 RAM, two HDDs for a total of 80 GB, the drives use PATA cables, it has an intel made motherboard, and an overkillpartsthisshitty 250W PSU. In my teardown, I found a whole POUND OF DUST. Let me know what old pieces of crap you guys have.

[C0LL0SS0S]

Fun story I know someone that still plays with DDR2 Memory, your PC would be a upgrade I guess

[79wjd]

My 11 year old system with an AMD Athlon 64+ 3000 3gb DDR-400 RAM, 220gb HDD, Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe, 512mb Radeon X1950 Pro. Not that old and just threw it out actually. 

[Suffokation]

That isnt a 18 year old pc.

[Scratchy1215]

we have a 17year old gateway in the basement, it was 2500$ beast back when we got it. remember installing the ram with my dad... the cpu cooler was clogged with dust and overheated and died. i should go down and check the model number, had windows me on it i think, it might not of been 17 but right around there, i was a toddler when we got it

 

also the cpu looks like it plugs into a pci e slot type thingymgig

[Sors]

I have a couple of Victor 9000 PCs that came out 30 years ago.  I think those are the oldest ones I have.
