I swapped the Mobo in my system about a 6 -8 months ago and since everything runs stable now I was wondering if there was anything I should try to salvage from my old motherboard before I discard it. Such as, the older MoBo had 3 memory slots which was expandable up to 3GB opposed to 2 slots and 2GB. Also, if there are some general tips for discarding that will be appreciated.
I migrated from a Gigabyte GA-7VTXE to a
PC Tools M811LU and listed the specifications for each board below as well as a link to web pages that format the specs better.
