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

[makaronidi]

for me it is my GPU, whitch is about 10 months old (EVGA GTX 660)

[Klefth]

A decade old 160GB Seagate Barracuda. It's never failed at all, and it's actually still my one and only HDD atm because I'm kinda broke, lol. I've updated/replaced every part of my system a couple of times since I got that HDD, but the still barracuda remains.

[bry.yyyy]

HD 5570 For me 

[Sonefiler]

My mouse by 2 months

[emachado99]

DVD drive, and my mouse and keyboard

[Imaginaerum]

My Model M that I bought about a year ago if that counts, otherwise it's my i7-930 processor and the x58 motherboard

[Gonçalo]

I still have a Win95 System (not sure about the components inside but they are definetly not new ) operational just for the purpose of using a Epson LQ-500 dot matrix printer for emergencies when i run out of ink for my ink jet printer

 

As for my rig I am using some old OEM 250 GB hard drive and a Asus HD7770 2GB DDR5 until I can afford to finish upgrading everything

My whole system is plain old; it's quite amazing that all components still work. I have only added 1 GB of DDR-133 RAM and that's it. Everything else is just as it was 10 years ago when it was bought on June 13th 2004. I have a DELL Dimension 4600i... I guess I have the oldest system here.

Specs:

• DELL motherboard socket 478
• Integrated Intel Extreme graphics with 96 MB of VRAM
• 1,5 GB DDR-133 RAM
• 120 GB Maxtor HDD (IDE)
• Intel Pentium 4 Northwood (1 core, 2 theads) @3.06 GHz
• OS: Windows XP Home Edition SP3
• DVD drive
• CD drive
• Floppy disk drive

Hope this is old enough B)

 

Grtz,

P.S.: If you have any questions, please PM me.

I think I can top that. (not my primary rig though)

 

How about a Dell Dimension 3000. Working. no idea about the specs, it once had a spiders web in it(good luck catching any flies Mr spider) that was sucked out with a hover, but still lives on. It also has a dual phone line dial up modem card.

IN? Probably the CPU and Motherboard circa 2010.

 

But I am currently using an UltraSharp 1704FP as a secondary from 2004 or 2005.

 

My other computers are actually rather new. Just built them this year.

 

I do have an Nvidia MX400 PCI card I use for troubleshooting. So the couple of times that was in my systems, I guess that was it.

I have a hard-disk manufactured in June, 2009. It still works. My hard disk manufactured in May, 2012 broke already. Probably the luck of the draw.

That's quite amazing, which brand? & is it the server grade hdd or normal one?

Just a 7.2K RPM Hitachi consumer drive. >5 years of use isn't bad.

[TetraSky]

Screws and the 3com pci plate I put on my Intel NIC that was half sized only when I bought it.

 

Other than that, everything else is more or less from without the same time frame (2009/2010, with the SSD being slightly newer)

where can I find the manufacture date? I'm pretty sure mine is at least that old. Do I have to go actually look at the drive or can I download some nifty thing that will tell me.

I just looked at the sticker on the top of the drive. Different companies list it differently.

[You Scrub....The Floor]

Compaq Monitor

[TriBeard]

It looks like my HDD is from 2008, and that my secondary monitor is from 2007. So I guess that monitor is actually the oldest thing in the computer. Who knew.

[anzonix]

My Phenom II X4 955 Black edition is pretty old, must be almost 5 years.

[JoãoFlôr]

My 240gb HDD is the oldest component in my rig. I hope to change that in a few months when the SSD prices drop even more!

[warzer0]

Ahem.

[Lumi]

a 256gb western digital drive from 2004. (7200rpm)

[Maxibonbits]

Probably the Optical drive in my system. it was second hand when i purchased it, so i'm assuming it is rather old.
