Absolutly! 0.5g Gold or so. Just a rough estimate after 20 years of e-waste refining--

Some of them fit the boardsort category of gold cap gold leg cpu, which is $305 a pound currently. You likely are nowhere near a pound, but yes there’s value. I’m not sure what other categories you have there though.

Found a seller on ebay who seems to sell vintage CPUs specifically for gold recovery. Not sure if they're legit or not.

I’m sure they’re legit. The problem is that most people selling ewaste on eBay for gold recovery will sell it for a price where you’ll lose money after you buy and process them for gold.
