Hi all, this one has me puzzled because it seems like it doesn't fit neatly into an existing category:
It had an AMD Duron chip in it.
It has a 'SOCKET462' which the Internet says is also known as a 'Socket A', but that came before the AMD AM socket was released.
A quarter barely fits inside the perfectly square hole.
Pics are attached; thank you in advance!

You got 2 gold tab BGA chips. The older the motherboard. The higher quanity/quality of gold manufactuers used. Thats brought out in https://youtu.be/4cvuKakb558?si=VAHwKM2m5nULF84y. You deserve the higher rate on that motherboard.

Thanks to you for your helpful replies! I am going to send it as the category you mentioned. I am not attempting reselling of boards at this time.

I can't blame you, lot of buyers out there who buy boards like this can't get them to work and demand a refund or are flat out scammers and send back a box of rocks or something diffent. I used to sell boards like that all day long and the number of folks who buy them not knowing how to use them or are flat out scammers is nuts. I know only sell to people I know who aren't scammers and know how to use old stuff and that hardly happens anymore with how good scarp prices are.
