I don't want to bother putting them in the FS/FT threads. But I see some people like tinkering with them.
My mind is at a blank though... what to do/make with them?

Ostentatious earrings? Gold plate them, hang them from heavy gold chains for a Geek punk look?

Or you could send them to me.

Clean off the heatsink paste and put them in the aquarium!

Fish and chips go together like fish 'n chips!

He could perform whatever ritual he performed on his chipped cores and see if it brings these back to life ;) I wonder if we need to find him a baby goat for the ritual...

We must not forget the Pagan right's ritual honoring the goddess Estarte.

I made a plexiglass stand for my chip collection. Intel and AMD chip display. Most of them still work.

I just bought a Dremel tool.

I think I'll shave off the pins on the dead CPU and drill a small hole in the corner.

Great idea! Instead of paying some ebayer 3 bucks for an AMD case badge, just knock off the pins and epoxy it to your case door!
