Even if it is 10 bucks for a top-of-the-line mobo, people would not buy since new CPU is sold at hefty price, and GPUs, even used ones, are way overpriced to be needing new motherboard.
What is the point of getting new hardware when old hardware (say, 10yo) does well in today's standards while new hardware cost you an arm and a leg?
Can't even by HDD, not even SSD, with today's prices.
No shit dude. Lowering a mobo price will do nothing because that isn't the budget breaker. Never has been.
