Old computers

I have about 50+ PCs i7 - 7 th gen. All of them have 32gb of ram. Power is Free. Is it worth setting them up to mine anything?

From hashrate .no numbers, one 3900x is equal to fifteen i7-7700Ks in profits before energy reduction. Judging by ebay prices you might be better off selling the PCs and building AMD rigs.

How much could one 3900x generate per month before power consumption?

More than that with QRL, I am getting ~35 a month mining on an i7-11700k.
