I don't think you will ever get a sale here honestly. Those PSUs arent for mining. The Corsair and Thermaltake don't even have enough PCIe connectors.
The generic Dell looking one can never be used for mining.

I had similar PSUs as these in my GPU mining days. I just sold them on Craigslist for like $20-30.

You're right, to be honest, also in term of efficiency, but people come here to buy or sell computer components too, so maybe someone on a tight budget to build a PC would grab one. In that case it would not be a bad idea at all.

Its still a little too much.

You can get that that Thermaletake for $16 from Amazon if you are in the USA.

The Corsair you can buy brand new for $40.


I had both those PSUs and I think I gave one away for free with a GPU and another I sold for $20.
