    Very high grade boards...Soldered gold plated CPU's...questions

    So I have a lot of motherboards that have gold plated CPU's soldered on. I removed the onces that could be removed, and now I am left with a high grade board...what can I expect these to be worth?



    Not CPU's...but a lot of pins.




    The board on the left above and the one on the top below: they are very heavy and seem to have 2 gigantic gold plated pins on the one side.








    Also, on occasion, I come accross what seems to be slot processors, but bigger. They have a CPU soldered to them, but its not the type of CPU that I would go crazy over. Here's an example:



    So, in this case, I guess if I remove the bracket...I could get slot processor grade for it, correct? In the situation where it is on a motherboard (and not a small card) what could I expect for that? Server grade? What if it is on a dual socket board already...server grade still?


    Thanks!
    Yeah that's great and all...but...CAN I SCRAP IT!?

    My .02 I would go to the buyers and sellers section and find ewasted thread you'll find his web site and e-mail address. Send all these pics. to his e-mail and ask for a quote. He is good and honst, tell him you found him on this forum, he has good prices too. Again this is just what I would do.
