What type of standard slot CPU are you talking about?
What are you basing the value on?
Slot CPUs do have other things on them besides the gold plating. Here is a picture of a Pentium III slot CPU
If you look close, you will notice the MLCC's, those usually have Pd and some have Ag, then you have flat packs that contain PMs, plus the gold pins of the CPU itself, and whatever PMs it might contain, although they contain very very little themselves. Some slot cards have the same type of CPU seat as one connected to a mother board, if that's the case, the seat also has gold plated female pins for the CPU to fit into.
There is usually far more PMs in the components of a board, rather than the actual gold plating you can see with your eye.
The plating calculator works fine, or you can google "gold plate calculator" and find another one, just make sure you are aware what unit of measurement the calculator is using.
I wrote this in response to another person's post that they have since removed. I didn't want to see like I was just blurting things for no reason.
These boards are actual risc processors, they don't have CPU's on them, they are the CPU.
You might be able to sell them for more if they work, if you put them up on ebay.

If you do a search for that same type of risk processor you will find a lot of auctions in the past, and what they were able to sell for. Just google "ebay HP A3261-69204".
In any case, it seems you can sell each board for at least $19.99.
