Thanks! Definitely looks Very similar, however this particular one I have is a socket 5, but that manual still helps for sure.

That's a Plato board. I have one with the same PBA and like it. It appears by the jumpers yours has a P90 on it.
There have been two recent threads with info about that board:
Gateway 2000 P5-90 Restoration
Replace Dallas RTC battery without desoldering?
If you can live with its 2GB IDE HDD limit, it's a nice board.
Omg, yes! This definitely looks like it! Some say it's socket 7, but mine is a socket 5. Do you know where to find the manual for it, and about how much RAM it can have maximum? Another question I have is if a socket 7 heatsink can be used on a socket 5 board, as they look very similar with the notches and I can Not find a single "Socket 5" heatsink online. Thank you so much though!

Yes! I looked it up, and it looks like they also have adapters for ATX PSUs that allow them to have P8, P9, and P10 connectors on them. What kind of cards typically used 3.3v and about how common were they? I also notice on the old AT PSUs, they have like, two inputs for power cords, one with the prongs, and one for prongs to be inserted into it. What's the difference between them? Are they both needed or only one? Thanks for your help.
