[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1633968, member: 56379"] The deal is...to build a motherboard at home with off the shelf parts...you got to be able to handle the individual parts that will be soldered onto the motherboard (resisters, transistors, capacitors, etc.). When I say "handle" I mean the best a human can do with micro tweezers, magnifying glasses, micro soldering equipment, etc. I just looked inside of one of my Powermac G4's...and there's some pretty small stuff in there & fairly closely spaced (soldering would be difficult). May need to go older. - Nick [/QUOTE]
