This may have been covered in another post but I was just wondering does anyone know round about how much gold and other pm is in an average desk top mother board. Considering the options between depopulating and just selling for scrap or someone else who may want to mess with them. I know the ic's contain gold, slot pins, and cpu bases. Also monolithic capacitors contain silver, and cyrstal oscillators. Just don't feel like messing with them anymore, but don't want to throw them either.
