AS most know i just started collecting. The other day i got a lot of 20 cpu's, which had some Intel 486 DX2 cpu's, which are :

66mhz SX955
66mhz SX750
(2) 66mhz SX911

I was thinking about contimueing these , like "completeing" a set, but i dont really see many on ebay. Are they rare or something? Thx

Some are rarer than others and some are quite common. However a lot of 486 CPU's have been recycled for the gold content so it is hard to judge which are common and which are rarer.

Some collectors are also now collecting by country of manufacture as well as spec.

I have a few in my Store if you want to have a look.

If you collect the sSpecs, there must be 150+ different Intel 486. Collecting different manufacturing plants/countries will more than double that.
