Hi! I am new here & have 7 desktop PC motherboards & 1 laptop motherboard that I need help with grading. Some of the boards still have CPU's on them. If I have to, I will take additional pictures of those boards with the CPU's removed. Please help, thank you. (Apologies for the big pictures, I don't know how to use inline code on this site to resize them.)

Check out this article for more info on grading motherboards.

Before we cover the different motherboard grades, it is important to note that ALL batteries must be removed from all of the boards all of the time. Pictures numbered from top to bottom.

1. Looks like a Large Socket Motherboard but measure the socket to be sure.
2. Looks like a Small Socket Green Motherboard but measure the socket to be sure and remove the metal backing pate.
3. Looks like a Small Socket Green Motherboard but measure the socket to be sure.

1 Is a AM2 socket, small socket motherboard
2 Take off the IO shield. Also the section with two slots can be separated, that itself is a backplane board.
4 is a socket 370, large socket motherboard. Take out the CPU, it is a black fiber CPU.
5. Take out the CPU, it is a green fiber with metal CPU
6. Take out the slot processor, remove the heatsink and plastic and that itself is a slot processor

Also remove the button cell batteries
