I’ve got no clue what to do. Tried selling them, looked into melting them down. Any help greatly appreciated. All the same brand, mix of 4GB and 8GB cards.

You mean hundreds of dollars? Get on eBay brother.
Sell them? Is this not obvious?
Sort them into 8,16,32Gb kits then sell them on ebay
ebay
Maybe call one of those companies that flips old office computers and see if they want it?
Pee on them to show dominance.
But everyone seems to overlook that they are Ecc and not really worth anything. On aliexpress these get thrown all over you for next to nothing
take them to r/hardwareswap and /r/homelabsales
Get an older xeon server for cheap and set up a homelab.
Since they’re ECC Registered, pretty sure you can them up for sale on eBay for people wanting to replace the RAM of their old servers to higher capacity.
Bought some myself for an old server I was given.
Shove it up your ass
Make keychains?
Run some large LLMs
Use them like legos
Create a “house of ddr” for fun, similar to making a house of cards with playing cards.
I honestly thought that was k&n (car) air filters.
For a second I thought these were car air filters
Sell them on eBay! Or on r/homelabsales
Ramdrive
Make air filters, from the looks of it.
How and why do you have those?
slow sales on ebay maybe pays for your fuel or McDonald’s cheesburgers
Have fun extracting the gold (if they have any)? You probably wont make any money, but it will be fun (maybe)
Looks edible
If you combine 10 ddr3 sticks you’ll get 1 ddr4 stick, combine 10 of those to get 1 ddr5 stick
Bin them of course
Sell em
Lots of systems still used DDR3. I have half a dozen still working in my house. I don’t use them, but I have plans for them.
Those will sell online fairly well. Just packageb then in meaningful kits like you might find online, or sell them piece meal.
consume for nutrients
Lol, I was just looking to get 4x4gb ddr3 for a stupid nas server!
Wow the day I start looking for ddr3 ram for my older PC your post pops up except yours is ecc
Melt them down for gold
Make some wall art. Or some kind of art where they are cast in resin
Get a DDR3 server motherboard, load it up. Or sell it, but that’s less fun
Make it so others can download more ram.
Donate some to that guy who opened a cyber cafe in a remote place and sends regular updates here every few months. Love that guy
Build yourself a cool dual Xeon home server to stream your movies and music to your mobile device.
Put them in your butt
Wallpaper, just line your walls
People are saying it’s ECC…
Could you maybe buy those dirt cheap xeons and build budget rigs to sell?
How much lube you got ?
Don’t waste it we’ve enough e-waste already, either donate them if you can’t sell or simply sell it.
You’d be surprised on how many people are still using ddr3s probably even majority
Buy old server racks and fire it up. Thats the only thing i could come up with when i had 5-6 mini pc’s from remote jobs lmao.
If every game with a crafting system has taught me anything, three of those can be smashed together into a ddr4 stick.
But to upgrade to ddr5, first you have to build a RAM compactor facility, research obsolete tech reconstruction, and have at least 5 crushercyborgs.
Pretty sure there is a vendor somewhere that gives you DDR4 if you trade in at least 5 DDR3 sticks.
Combine them, might be able to craft a few DDR5
wanna send me a few? lol
