WTB: T4xp broken motherboard

#1 Post by xkeithx » Wed Jul 26, 2006 3:12 pm

will pay up to $75 for any board with the 128mb video chip, fried or not. i have another broken board and recently acquired a machine that lets me remove soldered-on cpus, so i want to play around with it and see if i can get a working board out of the scavenged parts. thanks guys!

Fried? Possibly. Not fried? For $75? Not bloody likely.

CPUs on the T41p MBs are in a mini-ZIF socket. However the GPUs are soldered in place.

let me know if you get it working (or, I suppose, you can have my dead board if you find me a good deal on a replacemnet)
