What to do with 2 servers?

I got my hands on 2 servers. Unsure of all of the specs as I've never dealt with servers before. They are both dual Xeons, 4x 1GB RAM and 6x 73.4GB HDDs. Also ATI GPU:

I removed one of the CPUs and it is a Intel xeon i m c '05 04 (I think). Not really sure how to tell.

I don't really have the space to set both of these up anywhere and use them as is, so my question is what else can I do with them? Can I install the motherboard and harddrives in a more standard case that I can put on the floor in my closet or something like that? Any ideas?

it may be just my preference but, you may not want to use google photos to share out that picture, now anyone knows your real name behind your user name. unless that is a fake account.

You give them to me so I can run Quake 3 servers.

You might need to get larger drives for the servers but you could use them as a file server, media server, or a camera server.

Is there anything I can do with it so I don't have to have the large rack-mount cases somewhere in my house?

Is this the correct CPU? http://ark.intel.com/products/27094/64-bit-Intel-Xeon-Processor-3_00E-GHz-2M-Cache-800-MHz-FSB
Is this the right socket? If I buy a mobo like this and use it in an ATX tower, will that work? https://www.amazon.com/Tyan-S2721GN-533-Socket-Chipset-Motherboard/dp/B00008IHR2

They aren't worth running anything given the poor performance, power consumption, noise, and heat output.

Donate them or sell them.
