Hello self hosters,
Recently I came into possession of an old Desktop PC. Its configuration is,
- Pentium D 820, 2.8 GHz dual Pentium 4 core processor, supports 64 bit.
- 512 DDR 333 memory
- 90GB HDD
- no graphics card
- 3 PCI and 1 AGP slot
I was planning to put a ethernet card and use it as a router. It was to theown as garbage. Is what I am planning feasible or a good idea. Or it would be better as trash.
There are purposes for it, but with the power it would use for basic tasks, I think it is better recycled.
It would be good for playing old XP era games or hardware. But for modern tasks?
Yeah no, that P4 wastes way too much power to be useful for anything.
Can computers be properly recycled? I ask this as someone living in a place where everything ends up in a landfill
Not really, no.
But this thing could be beat with a raspberry pi.
