    A few questions about boards

    Today I found some motherboards with fingers on the sides like finger boards have, are these worth more? If not can i cut the fingers off and still get motherboard price?

    Also, should slot processor boards be put with finger boards?

    Most buyers wont deduct if you cut the fingers off a motherboard.

    Slot CPU boards have there own catagory usualy about double or more finger card price.

    The few motherboards that I have found with fingers on them, I have snapped them off. It's still a motherboard.

    Slot processors get a much nicer price than regular finger boards. More than double the price of finger boards.
