Wait for a mod on the rest of these but...the motherboards, ONLY remove the battery and aluminum heatsinks, removing other things drops the grade down quickly!

1) small socket looks good to go.
2) large sockets. Never pull components from motherboards. Make a mistake and price falls fast.
3)gvc you need to remove the shell for finger card rate.
4) anything with silver or nickel pins and no gold cap goes in the generic IC category
5) peripheral. Ram card will probably be gold or silver ram rate.
6) quite old. Probably good for telco.
7) big green one could make telco. Rest is peripheral
8) big green one could make telco. Rest is peripheral
9) midgrade
10) midgrade

Ok sounds good. If my motherboards have heat sinks on them will I be downgraded for leavin them? Also a few of the small sockets have something similar to gold fingers like on the finger cards. Can I cut them of and still get motherboard rate and sell the fingers for gold finger price? I will probably trim the gold fingers off of the finger cards and try to maximize my profits there

These are the "fingers" on the motherboards.

The small sinks from north/south bridge chips etc can stay on. They want large ones like cpu coolers and anything with a fan removed.

Yes those small sets of fingers are one od the few things you can cut loose from the board (and sell separately) without hurting the board's value.
