Generally photos of the backs are not needed, unless there are components that will add value, or ones that need removing. What will help is getting good light on your boards so the components can actually be seen and identified.

Okay, thanks. Just wondering, are you saying my photos need better lighting or just in general?

I think these photos were good enough to evaluate the boards. I've stated on a few posts recently that better photos were needed because I couldn't determine what some things were on the board, which may or may not impact the grade. Do your best to get good even lighting and if your camera resolution isn't great split a photo of 6 boards into 2/3 photos. But again, I think these pictures are good.

I also have recently asked about the backs of boards because I was bordering between two grades and knowing whether anything was on the other side of the board would have helped me decide.

So, if there's nothing on the back of the board you can omit backs but someone may still ask about the back to get a better handle on where the board should go.

You don't have any heatsinks or fans that I can see so it comes down to whether there's any brackets. If there's any kind of metal bracket then it would be GFC no fan no heatsink with bracket. No bracket then GFC no heatsink no fan no bracket. You can always remove brackets to upgrade the material

Thanks, Marked! Appreciate the help. If you have a moment, I have a few other posts that I could use some help with grading.

I think there was enough I wasn't sure about that I left them in hopes somebody else might offer an opinion. If I can remember I'll check this evening when I'm not on my phone and get what I can.
