A guy posted some "Misc computer parts" on FB marketplace. It was just bins of junk, but I saw an ABit NF7-S, so I knew I at least wanted to check out what he had. I told him that I would probably be able to give him like $5-10 each for some of the boards he had. When I got there and heard why they were selling and saw a few other things, I just gave him $150 for the bin. I actually don't know everything I got, so let's see and maybe test some stuff out.
