So what is the oldest part of your pc?
My oldest part is my CPU cooler, bought it in late 2003/ early 2004 It runs my over-clocked CPU at about 3-5 degrees over ambient temperature at idle, and goes up about 15-20 degrees when on load with ALL 6 cores, but it never uses them all so it normally just increases by 10-15 degrees.
Post away!!!

Re: Oldest part in your pc?
I'd have to say the oldest running part I had was one of the first SATA WD 10,000 rpm drives dated 03. Was finally upgraded last weekend. For its time it was awesome!! and has never missed a beat all these years.
The oldest thing connected to my computer is my 24" Dell ultrasharp, everything else is brand new and probably not even 8 months old yet. I don't bother upgrading. My last PC was good for 3 years, and I foresee this new one lasting at least that long (with a likely GPU upgrade when the next gen is released). At the 3 year point you may as well just buy new everything. I've got 2 full systems sitting out in storage, neither are worth >$200 and none of the parts are worth salvaging (400GB HDDs, old GPU, old RAM). I'm much lazier these days.
If anyone wants to buy my old systems I can post specs for you. You'd be getting a pretty wild deal.
