Power it up somehow, flick cigarette ash onto it, and you have yourself a smoke machine

practice soldering really small components onto and off of it.

Remove the cpu socket with a soldering iron (I think that's what it's attached with...).
Shave a small area in the top of your scalp, large enough for the socket. Solder the socket to your head. Let your hair grow over the socket, and possibly cover it with a beanie.
Now pretend you're the Terminator, with your brand new shiny Athlon/Duron cpu. You're hard, so make sure people know this by wearing leather and sunglasses.
If you possibly want to overclock your cpu, just take lots of speed/whizz. Being a watercooled system, you should drink lots of water to avoid your cpu blowing. Robotics would be a good dance to start with, methinks.

Hang it on the wall. That's what I did with an old ASUS
Use it as an evaporative radiator for a water cooling system
Sure I saw this done before with a cube case - the window showed off the mobo with water running all over it while the real one as hidden on the other side.
Now go away before I taunt you a second time.
I used to use mine as an instruction aid when teaching people about pc architecture.

You could also use as as an physical instruction aid for when people don't understand not to open the exe file attached to that mail - build up a pavlovian response.
Now go away before I taunt you a second time.
but that exe file probably has womens bits in, it has a very raunchy name, oooh I wanna open it I wanna I wanna
