New to identifying boards, can someone confirm if my guesses on the classifications on these are correct?

1: integrated motherboard
2: high peripheral
3: gold finger card
4: low peripheral
5: high peripheral
6: AMD ceramic aluminum top K6

^ those are my guesses, hope they aren’t too far off haha

1, see the small black circle in the white part beside the chip? Should be a lock and unlock pictogram on either side. Turn the circle to the unlock and pull the chip out. It'll be a green fiber no metal CPU and the board should be Small Socket P4 Mobo. Remove the battery.

2, CD/DVD drive board

3, yes, gfc

4, yes

5, low peripheral

6, note the material and color of the middle section (between the silver cap and gold pins), green and made of the same fiber stuff as any other circuit board. Ceramic would look different, feel cooler to the touch and typically comes in whites, purples and blues. So you have a Green Fiber with metal here.

I agree with all of your other assessments .. i would throw this in laptop motherboards though, as it has the mobile cpu and a battery connector (top right) .. so definitely from a laptop and last time i went to boardsort that was their criteria, that they came from laptops. scale guy could have just been being nice, though.
