Can you help identify the boards in these numbered pictures? Thanks in advance.

PickleJar, I have been having issues with the reasoning behind why some are calling the boards like #9 in his example "Backplane". Given the difference in price, the amount of gold fingers on this board, and the lack of "junk", wouldn't these boards be clean GFC's? If not, can you explain why?

I think boards like 9 are clean gold finger card w/o bracket, that is what they have gone as when I have brought stuff down to Ohio.

Capitalismrules, could you post a picture of only board 10? I see a heatsink on it, so there are at least a few chips on it, and it also does not have an obvious finger.

That confuses me as well because the job of that card in a computer/server is a backplane card, but I am glad that you have first hand knowledge that they grade as gold finger cards. Must be the fingers and the lack of heavy low value items that makes the difference.

Added pic of board 10. What grade do you think it is?

After the heatsink is removed from it, I would call it low telecom. Because it has a decent population of high grade chips, and not a lot of wasted weight or junk on it.
