Scrap Computer Cpu
Overview
Product sourcing insights & recommendations


The market for scrap computer CPUs in 2026 is seeing a significant valuation split between legacy ceramic chips and modern fiber processors. High-grade ceramic scrap (e.g., Pentium Pro) currently commands premiums up to $275/lb due to gold yields of ~0.55g per chip, while the broader e-waste market is projected to reach $37.56 billion this year.
Key insights include:
- Price Tiers: Values range from $4.10/lb for modern pinless (LGA) chips to over $200/lb for legacy gold-capped ceramics. Alibaba
- Market Timing: A peak in e-waste supply is anticipated around April 2026, driven by global hardware refresh cycles. AlibabaIdc
- Recovery Potential: One ton of mixed high-grade scrap can yield 8–11 troy ounces of 24k gold. Goldrefiningforum
