candy cane non-I series. Looks like a few of the gold landing stips are there for the pinless cpu, so it is a metal socket. The I-series never have gold tabs on the boards.
On the GFCs you might make more by leaving the bracket on the cards. Shark scrapper did a video on this and I have checked a lot of cards, sure enough generally break even to slight increase in profit with less work with most standard PC cards.

Thank You to everyone.

I did what the first poster suggested. I read the rest of the replies I did not send the motherboards which appear to me be only $4 a pound. That advice might be useful for them.

Tried to take the pins off the server board cpu slot, but if anything small on the server board is worth anything I can learn more and strip it.

If I made a mistake by not taking enough off any of the 4 cards I've sent, it is a small amount. I will learn by my mistakes when the money hits or doesn't hit the bank.

The motherboards I posted one photo, if anyone thinks they are worth more than $4 a pound, or the parts should be taken off for future boxes, like the gold pins on the server board comment.

I had suggested to some Ladies in Animal Rescue they get donations of memory sticks as well as money, I don't think that went anywhere.

what did you do to that cpu socket !!!! lol. yeah as marked141 said don't harvest parts off motherboards
