I'm not 100% sure what you looking for by way of a reply here: how people disassemble hardware, what tools they use, what parts are most valuable/reusable/

Can you be a bit, well a lot actually, more explicit? :)

Basically what parts do you harvest from pcs, what do you decide to keep and what do you decide to pass on ?

1. Mother board --- you must throw away.
2. RAM --- that is of no use.
3. Keep the hard drive --- you can store something there may be PM3.
4. and don't throw away the fan --- that will keep you cool.
