    Server board question

    Just bought a server for scrap for $10. I was wondering what to do with these boards since the processors are directly put on them.



    2 Finger Boards w/ Intel I960 processors and 1 Stick RAM (just over 1/2 Lbs. each)



    1 board just weighing over a pound w/ Nice Processor on it (21164-FB 400) link I found about it here

    When we sell boards that have ceramic chips attached to the boards they are graded as "chip board" which sells for a bit more than server board.

    pull the ram out of the slot and put it with the rest of your ram. there should be two little metal tabs on both ends that are holding it in.

    +1 on what he said. Nothing to really add to his post.
