How do your capacitors near the CPU look? Any bulging, leaking or strange looking corrosion?

I had an Asus K8N running an Athlon XP3000+ it was OK when I built it in 2003, but it quickly got outdated after hyperthreading and dual cores became the industry standard. Depending on what CPU/socket you have here it may not be worth spending money on except for pure lols.

i bought tons of old cards and parts to put together pc's for practice just building pc's and then they have just sat there so i picked thhe only real good card i had from test runs of them all

OK. None of it is really useable by todays standards. You could build a retro Windows XP or DOS gaming PC. but really nothing more than that.
