Dont Underestimate :winner:

over the weekend holliday on Monday spent the afternoon at the park with wife n child. took a drive around nearby neighborhood for a relaxing tour. seen a bbq pit and washer/dryer great shape on side of the road.. finished relaxing drive droped them off picked up trailer and headed back... picked up pit... stoped at washer/dryer and the guy was outside, I asked him if I could have them (polite always is nice) he said no problem and by the way the dryer works great but a switch is out on washer, I thanked him loaded up and left.. on the way home wife calles, her mom's dryer went out hahaha I said guess what I got one being delivered to her now lol...... nice savings.... but the thread title is cause of this, I picked up a smaller projection tv, they have some copper some alum, some cast alum, not much money but it adds up.. so an hour ago I just tinkered with the guts and lookie what I find... hope the pics post..

Gold Baby!

Oh yea.

Gold baby Gold

Processor Gold smiles.

Other side

That would be a DLP/DPL chip, an it's board.

Nice score!

Sirscrapalot - I need to tattoo the name of that accursed chip, cause I always get it wrong!

Yup, DLP chip. Someone on this forum was paying 50.00#. Nice find, projection tv's are alot of work and produce alot of waste but they do have good boards and some nice chips.

i have a few of those mixed in my CPU box for later sorting. the ewaste prices here north of the border aren't the greatest so i'm waiting until I'm over flowing with high grade boards fingers ect.

i was surprised about all the gold on those boards

do you process them yourself then?
