Memory & CPU buyback · Canada-wide

Sell your server memory and CPUs — the value most people throw away.

Memory modules and processors are usually the densest value in a retired server — and the parts a scrap dealer ignores. Maxicom buys used server RAM and CPUs across Canada, loose or still in the boards, and pays you in CAD against your PO. Send your list — part numbers, speeds and quantities — and we send a written offer.

Sell used server memory & CPUs in Canada

The memory and processors are where the money is.

Pull the modules and processors out of a rack of retired servers and you're holding most of the resale value — often far more than the chassis, drives or cabling around them. It's the part a scrap dealer weighs for pennies and a shredder destroys. We buy it properly: priced by part number, speed, rank and quantity, and paid in CAD. Loose in trays or still populated in the boards, here's what we buy.

Server memory (RDIMM / LRDIMM)

Registered and load-reduced server DIMMs are the core of what we buy — by generation, capacity, speed and rank.

Examples: DDR5 RDIMM (4800/5600) · DDR4 RDIMM & LRDIMM (2400–3200) · 16GB / 32GB / 64GB / 128GB · 1R/2R · legacy DDR3 ECC

Intel Xeon processors

Xeon Scalable and earlier server CPUs, loose or pulled from boards.

Examples: Xeon Scalable (1st–5th Gen, Bronze→Platinum) · Xeon E5 v3/v4 · Xeon E7 · Xeon-W workstation

AMD EPYC processors

EPYC server processors across the Naples-to-Genoa lineage.

Examples: EPYC 9004 (Genoa) · 7003 (Milan) · 7002 (Rome) · 7001 (Naples) · Threadripper PRO

Desktop & workstation CPUs / memory

High-core desktop and workstation processors, plus DDR4/DDR5 UDIMM/SODIMM in volume.

Examples: Intel Core i7/i9 & Xeon-W · AMD Ryzen / Threadripper · UDIMM / SODIMM in bulk

Loose, pulled or E&O stock

Excess-and-obsolete inventory, de-populated modules, distributor overstock and pulls.

Examples: tray/tube lots · de-kitted modules · reseller surplus · matched-set pulls

What we price it on

Memory and CPUs are commodity-priced, so accuracy on the list gets you the sharpest number.

Value drivers: exact part number · capacity & speed · rank & density · quantity / matched sets · generation · condition
What we take

A tray of DIMMs or a room of servers.

  • Loose memory & CPUs — pulled modules and processors in trays, tubes or anti-static packaging.
  • Still in the servers — send whole servers and we recover the memory, CPUs and drives ourselves.
  • Excess & obsolete stock — distributor and reseller overstock, de-kitted parts, matched sets.
  • Working or untested — tested-good or as-pulled; note it on the list and we price to condition.
A business and bulk service. Quantity and matched part numbers move the offer most — a full tray of one DDR4 SKU beats a mixed handful.
How it works

Four steps, and you get paid.

1

Send your list

Part numbers, capacities, speeds and quantities — a spreadsheet or clear photos.

2

Get a written quote

A firm offer in CAD against your PO, priced to the live component market.

3

We collect

Collection arranged GTA-wide and nationwide, on a documented chain of custody.

4

You get paid

Any drives that come with the gear wiped, certificate issued, settled in CAD.

Who sells to us

Anyone sitting on server memory and CPUs.

Businesses & data-centre teams

IT teams stripping retired servers before disposal, data-centre operators recovering value from decommissioned fleets, and labs clearing older platforms.

Resellers, distributors & ITADs

The component trade — de-kitted modules, excess-and-obsolete stock, matched-set pulls and client-estate parts, bought on NDA in volume.

Data & documentation

Memory and CPUs hold no data — the drives beside them do.

Server RAM and processors don't retain your data, so they move quickly. When you send whole servers, though, any drives that come with them are sanitized first — with the same paperwork as the rest of our buyback.

Drives sanitized to NIST 800-88 & IEEE 2883If drives come with the servers, they're wiped to standard before resale, with a certificate of destruction.
Chain of custodyDocumented from collection to settlement — the paperwork your auditor expects.
Priced by part numberA written, line-item offer in CAD — no automated instant-price engine.
What drives your offer

How we price it — and how to get the best number.

Send an accurate list and you get an accurate price. What moves the offer on your memory and CPUs is specific: the exact part number, capacity and speed, rank and density, the quantity and how matched the lot is, generation, and condition. Quantity and matched lots help, current secondary-market demand sets the level, and any data-bearing drives are destroyed to standard as part of the deal rather than charged on top. The more precise your list — models, specs, quantities, condition — the sharper and faster the written CAD number comes back, with no automated instant-price guesswork.

Questions

Memory & CPU buyback — the short answers.

How much is used server RAM or a Xeon worth?
Memory and CPUs are commodity-priced and move with the market, so we quote from your list rather than a fixed figure. Send exact part numbers, capacities, speeds and quantities and we come back with a written offer in CAD against the current component market.
Do you buy loose modules and pulled CPUs?
Yes — loose DIMMs in trays or tubes and pulled processors are exactly what we buy. Matched quantities of a single part number get the sharpest offer.
Can I sell the memory and CPUs still in the servers?
Yes. Send whole servers and we recover the memory, processors and drives ourselves — or pull the parts yourself and send them loose. Either works; see server buyback for whole units.
Do you buy DDR5, DDR4 and older DDR3?
Yes — DDR5 and DDR4 RDIMM/LRDIMM are the core of what we buy, and we take legacy DDR3 ECC and desktop/workstation UDIMM/SODIMM in volume too.
Is there a minimum quantity?
It's a business and bulk service, so volume helps — a full tray of one SKU or a fleet's worth of processors rather than a single stick. The larger and more matched the lot, the better the offer.
Do you buy from resellers and distributors?
Yes — the component trade is core supply. We buy excess-and-obsolete stock, de-kitted modules and client-estate parts on NDA, and supply the trade in return.
