I sorted all of the RAM cards or DIMMs and I'm not sure if they are worth anything?

I've noticed half of them have gold connectors

The other half seem to have silver connectors

Should I sell these as a whole lot on eBay?

Or should I put them in a chemical bath and reclaim the gold

I started a business 6 months ago and I've run out of savings to keep afloat

Any suggestions or information are greatly appreciated!

Absolutely worth a few bucks in scrap at a reasonable e-scrap place. Probably enough to buy a six pack or two, but that's about it.

Very outdated Ram, you would be Dead before these were worth any real value.

I rebuilt my old 98 compaq and needed old ram. Try posting it on ebay, it might help someone

Do you have enough parts to build a few PC's? might be able to sell the "vintage" PC to a hipster for an unreasonable price.

Probably more money in it reclaiming what you can or sending them off to a place that does that. Looks like old outdated ram

It is old ram, from the old 386 days.

Trash.

No idea if anyone melts these down for gold. They're certainly not worth anything as working RAM.

How much gold do you think they have in each one?

32MB SIMMs are going for about $8 (actual sale price) on ebay... depends on what OP has, might have some money there.
