    There's usually no gold or major IC's on the tube type boards, just the usual non-ferrous. I'd still call them low grade.

    would depend...are they power type boards, the processor type boards or the green ones that you get that are long and thin with very little population on them?? Power boards will have alot of capacitors, heatsinks etc and would be low grade (this also includes the listte green ones with switches and pushbuttons on it)...the others you can generally get mid to high depending.

    CRT generally will only have the brown board (some are green) low grade board like you mentioned...the others will be on the LCD ones...typically a power boards (the ones I pulled yesterday actually were green (but are low grade), the video controller board (has flat packs and similar things to a video card) and then the long flat ones are under the aluminum shield at the bottom of the LCD panel (might be the top, I never really look)...but it is similar to the x/y controller boards in LCD tvs...there are several gold mylars that go from it into the panel itself.....you do have to pull that shield though (typically very small screws you you can pop it off with a chisel if they get stripped). I typically only find 1 where a LCD tv can have 2. they have gold "flashing" type plating on them.
