First things first correct your signature where it says 4TB ram. There's no such thing for memory sticks. What you mean is is 4GB. 4GB= 4096MB. FYI, Mb and MB are not the same .

Why do you want to destroy it? Just give it some poor guy or the PC donation thing.

@ sorcerer

He means down the line sometime in future (lets say 20 years from now) , he'll have 4tb of ram. Now that can actually be possible. Who knows? But no way now.

@ saswat23

Buddy, why don't you try it as a secondary download rig?

@ vickybat
Moreover its not mine so cant really do anything. And talking about using it as a download rig, it wont work at all. My old pc with PentiumD, 256mb RAM n 80gb HDD slowed down tremendously when i opened 3tabs in firefox. And you think this crap can be used for downloading.
By the way why would he use it for downloading when he has a C2D PC, which consumes much less power than this.
But he is planning to experiment on this pc coz it doesnot even support USB-2 drives, restarts frequently, monitor turns pink automatically and after a lot of struggle works normally for sometime and again same problem.
Not worth upgrading too. So, better to experiment.
So, can you help me in this challenge..

@ saswat23
What personal satisfaction will you or your friend gain by "damaging" the PC?
If your friend does not want to use it, then please donate it for a noble cause.
