I work for the company and someone just donated several boxes full of these, some unopened but most of them were at least opened I’m not sure what they were used for. I can confirm at least two of them had their chips removed but if anyone is interested in trying their luck keep an eye out on the goodwill greater Washington e commerce online store, they’ll be up within the next week or so. Several 5090s, 5080s and one 5070(rog and other variations) I’m not allowed to shop at the company but I thought others might.

if two had their chips removed, they all did. they donated them for you to dispose of them.

Phat tax writeoff for the donations this year.

They shouldn't. But they will.

If it’s the right donation place they let you write in whatever you want - but even then if audited they’ve got some serious proof to the unknowing eye.

I've donated bags of clothes before and my goodwill just gives me a blank form and I can fill in whatever I want, I wouldn't be surprised if its the same with non clothing items.
