Med grade

Dumb question, How do you distinguish between grades? I have a defective search button or poor ability, I just get no results even on common words.

Kind of a guessing game, but it depends on gold pins or fingers, the more the better. Also if the board is packed with IC chips raises the rating. Here's an example of a mid-grade;

A midgrade board is green on both sides and has some ic chips mounted to it but also have heavy items on it as well, such as heat sinks, transformers, large capacitors and other non-precious components.

Thanks, you sent me that link the other day and i forgot i had it.

My buyer allows me to mix these in with my regular motherboards, as long as i don't have that much.

Yeah I was going to say, this has at least 6 different areas with gold pins, and no heavy objects. I was going to say mixed with single socket motherboards, or #3 motherboards if I had a lot of them...

U asked the grade of the board, not which box it looks the most like to be included.

I mean hell gold is hardly what the refiners here are getting back from the boards. Look for double sided copper traces deep in the board, then go from there.

same problem here not sure how to grade boards or if i should try selling it on ebay as parts. oh yeah new at e waste, not new to scrapping.
