    2 E-waste questions

    Just bought the guts of a computer from a friend, and I'm having trouble finding the CPU on it. I think the little grey square in the picture might be it, but I'm not sure.

    Front view:


    Back view:


    This is what it looked like on the motherboard:




    It seems too thin to be a CPU:


    Is that the CPU? There's nothing else on there that even closely resembles a CPU

    Second question:

    Also included in the load were these:


    Are they all the same when it comes to pricing?
    There's nothing more fun and more effective than hitting something repeatedly with a sledgehammer

    Yes, what you have is a slot processor with the cover removed.

    The other cards are agp and pci expansion cards, video cards.

    Processor will bring more then cards. cards will bring motherboard prices or better depending on your buyer.

    The smaller ones with the gold edges are called finger cards some places.

    Yes 12 a pound.
