I know it’s got an i5-4570 in it and that lines right up with my old GTX 970 I’ve held onto release date wise. Stick some DDR3, a new cooler (Cooler Master Hyper 212 for authenticity), and new thermal paste in there and you’re pogging out in Splinter Cell: Blacklist or Assassin’s Creed IV or whatever else we were playing in 2013
Do the time honored tradition of moving the PC to an inconspicuous location to see if people look for it before moving it to the back of your trunk.
Take some of the parts home if you can’t take the entire PC with you. You would have to spend money on a used case, which is like 20 bucks. Do note that the motherboard and PSU aren’t completely internal components. What you can salvage home depends on the salvage policy of your IT department. Nobody cares about RAM or the motherboard lithium battery while people usually care about the storage drives because any semi-competent IT department would have policy stipulating that retired storage drives need to be sanitized or shredded.
Befriend people from IT or the warehouse and ask if they can “salvage” the PC by “disposing” it into the back of your trunk.
