First off, I hope this title on the thread don't ban me or something like that, but I feel it's appropriate for what your about to see...

For those with weak stomachs, you may want to go ahead and skip this thread.. For everyone else, it was a tragic day today as I found this in the bottom of a box I took in today.. Really sucks some people just don't know that this could've been worth something if they'd left it alone!

OK ok OK, sorry about all that!! Umm, without the fiber board & obviously all of the GoLd that is missing from this thing, what category would I put this with now? I'm hoping for "no pin CPU", but please don't say "steel shred" :/


Thanks guys

That's the copper heatsink or cap. There is no CPU left.

Unless something has changed with the math, it's not worth it to separate the CPU and cap.

Yeah, that is what I noticed immediately upon finding it... I wish I would of filmed me finding it though cause they even had this inside of one of them clear CPU clamshells... I'm still shaking my head about this.

$18 just went ~poof~ haha, gotta love it.

Not to add more to the injury, but in working condition it is in the $60 range...
