|
|
Just took apart a Dell my boss got for parts- Inside was a 925x board, with a P4 processor, LGA775.
Upon cleaning the processor, here's what I found:
INTEL(M)(C) '03
PENTIUM(R)4
3.4GHZ/1M/800
SL7J8 CHINA
5426A993
But then SIDEWAYS on the right edge:
3.2GHZ/1M/800
SL8BY CHINA
5426A993T
The chip recognizes as a P4 3.2 in an Intel 915 board.
The little black area on the actual chip reads:
354208A
0750
Is this normal? Is this strange? Pictures tonite, with my scanner. |

Sure, I'll take it home and scan it.
Is it worth selling as collectable? I've been short on cash for new computer stuff for some time  |

I doubt anyone collects these seriously yet, since they still have a open market value. But it should have a value as a replacement part perhaps... _________________ My collection: http://www.cpucollection.se :::::: http://www.chipdb.org Photos of chips you never knew existed.

Interesting chip... But I agree with cpuswe - it's current CPU market value is higher than it's collectible value.

Nice! Looks like some sort of test print to show where the different information should be printed. _________________ My collection: http://www.cpucollection.se :::::: http://www.chipdb.org Photos of chips you never knew existed. Now over 6000 different chips in the database. |

| Now that I see that it has two notches on the package it cannot be a Xeon chipset |
