That seller is retail.

there are a few things that could be going on with your board. K5 is the very first ram chip to be tested. if there isn't anything you can do by swapping ram chips around to change the K5 error then its something going on with the whole ram address or data chain to those ram chips.

I kind of doubt all of the ram is bad. Like I said. If there is no combination that you can swap the ram that is already in the board then you have a much more involved solution. If you have a logic probe I might be able to help.

I don't sell them because they cost a ton and many other places have them for cheaper than I could sell them at.

I don't know him, I bought 2 centipede boards from bstguy though.
I paid 90 a piece.
ended up getting stuck with 5 centipede boards so earlier this year this was posted here on these forums and it sold.
