Well if it's out of warranty, then use it as a show piece or something.

Paint it with moss, frame it and sell it as some sort of statement about our addiction to technology.

???

So what is a good use for a dead motherboard or is there any?

Spray paint it like Linus did but in gold or silver.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Okay, here's what you do. You take each and every cap, MOSFET, EVERYTHING off of the board, wipe it clean. Take this board, and knee it in half again and again until you have about 32 separate pieces, more if you want to. Now, lubricate them and gently shove them up your anus. Shove all 32 of those suckers in. Now, shove those caps and mosfets in there too if you can. Then, go to the doctor saying that you have rectal pain. When he finds the motherboard parts in your asshole, tell him that it makes sense, because you've really "Lost your spark".

Touch it, Touch all the caps, all of it.

Why don't you lick it too? I mean, might as well....

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

Sell it on ebay. Depending on what MOBO it is you could get a decent amount. Just make sure you put "completely dead, use for parts" somewhere in the description.
