    Intel 486 MB value

    I pulled 20 + of these out of some older audio equipment. I'm pretty sure these are the CPU's that are $110/#ish. I over a pound of them, but now I'm wondering boards are worth more than scrap, or if I should just send them in with my shipment in a few weeks? They don't look like normal MB's, but I pulled the CPU off, and several gold finger boards out of the slots. The small Ram is silver ends not gold.

    If you Ebay, I would check it out. There is some re-sale value there. Might take a while to move 20 of them...

    No cache chips or sockets for them, no vlb slots soldered in, looks like a stripped budget board few collectors would bother with.

    Yes take your time selling. Read the threads alot before commiting to a buyer or other ways of selling. Mike
