I had a similar question about Soundblaster live Sound cards
All the solder pads and logo and Ground plain have a gold foil over them I have a huge stack of them, most with components already removed. Is it cost effective to treat the whole card?

I haven't really planned on processing electronic at all I'm just curious.
