You could also keep it and put it on display. It would be awesome to one day tell your grandchildren that the old pc in the shelf was considered a great gaming machine 40 amount of years ago.

wipe the drives. then recycle it. many municipalities have a free recycle station to drop electronics off. At least near me. Ive got four old gpu’s to scrap soon.

I like keeping mine! I play older games on them that don’t run properly on new hardware. Sometimes, you can get games to work properly using mods or by purchasing them from GOG, but I personally like running games on the original system.
PS… the irony was not lost on me, that you asked about computers from 12 years ago and posted one from 30 years ago with a Turbo button. I see you
