I have 2 older Mobo's (ASRock P4VM890 - XP Only & ASRock P4i945GC - (XP and/or Windows 7); however, the last time I had P4i945GC running was dog slow with max ram and graphics card.

In the past they were good; however, now been mothballed for at least 2 years. Do I keep for backup or just recycle?

If you have space why not keep them? You may want to build a retro system some day. A lot of people are doing that now, myself included. Value of older parts has risen considerably the last couple years.
