I tested the motherboard with an i5 2500k. Everything I tested seemed to work, which includes:
-Integrated CPU graphics and PCIe Graphics cards
-All memory slots
-USB ports

I will be open to offers over $60, since technically the board is partially defective but I did not notice any problems during my testing.

Very cool Smiley Might be worth looking up the function of each pin to see how critical they are. I remember screwing up an Opteron socket 939 processor. I was just starting to dip into watercooling and I screwed something up and had to disassemble the whole loop, but my thermal grease was too... sticky? suctiony? I don't know. But when I went to pull the waterblock off the CPU, it pulled the CPU with it, even though the CPU was locked into the socket (?!?). Broke 3 pins, bent (but fixed) many others. Thankfully they were all grounds, and the CPU seemed to work just fine without the extra grounds.
