I recycle them at best buy or hand them down to a family member (often the case, except SSDs as those are usually dead). Far from perfect, I'm sure some of it makes it to a landfill. But probably better than nothing.
Just to clarify though I don't replace all those components every year, it usually ends up being one or maybe two things a year. But if I do one component a year my system can end up lasting indefinitely.
- dzhiurgis 5y agoSo is anything in your system for example 10 years old? MacBook can easily last 10 years for the right person. Just because I replace mine often doesn't mean people who buy it from me will.
- nightski 5y agoYes all the components last well over 10 years except maybe an SSD because I work with a lot of data. Like I said, I usually hand them down to family. If you can get by on a decade old machine all the more power to you. Professionally I cannot.
