Welcome to Boardsort™ - Learn - Sell - Profit -

I have pictured a circuit board taken from a desk top computer. Front and back photos. It's obvious it fits and is an Integrated Motherboard. It is the motherboard from the computer. But. My inquiry. So on any given day. Picking this board out of a box of unknown boards. I can see High Peripheral. There are plenty of gold connectors. Enough IC's. A added bonus. No real junk.
Solved the anomaly. What is going on here? Please don't respond. A motherboard is a motherboard.
I feel strongly to submit as High Peripheral. But. I may very well be missing some unknown e-scrapper knowledge.
Comments appreciated.

No. It is not flexible. It is strong. Little flex to it. Good information. Austin86. I can accept that the Integrated Motherboard class targeting a specific type of Motherboard.

It is what it is ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ lol

Motherboards are produced in mass. Every penny that can be saved, will be. Less gold used, cheaper components that get the job done and such. Not to mention how quickly things become obsolete so there's less reason to build for longevity.

Because Boardsort gets tons of material they can usually determine pretty quickly how valuable certain boards are, so in reality an integrated motherboard is an integrated motherboard and not high peripheral because it's an integrated motherboard, it just yields valuable stuff at a lower rate.

The deciding point for me. Will be the note made concerning the Integrated Motherboard category. (No Gold BGA). I looked over the video in High Peripheral a few times. It seems it may squeak into High Peripheral. But. As Marked141 said. " It is what it is". Also. It doesn't have a Gold BGA. Also. It doesn't have any real admirable IC population. But it does have gold on contacts for just about every connector. 3 connectors do not. I use a flashlight when inspecting connectors for gold. I think what made me balk on the evaluation was that it was HP. In my day. Hewlett Packard. That was to be respected. Quality. I figure to stay on track. I will submit as Integrated Motherboard.

The blatant "it is what it is" was said jokingly in line with you're request to not say why it is by just saying, because it is that. And cause Austin already said it's a motherboard.

There are always exceptions to rules and if you think this may be one you can always hit up Chris (or lost, he's got a good handle on most everything)
