Hi all!

Last weeks I worked hard on the Documentation section of my website so now I'm proud to submit the last updates Very Happy

* As usually, many new chips (now, more than 1200 chips in the collection), I also added some folders for odd chips and a plugin which add a "!" in front of newly updated folders.

* A DEC part number list

* A HP part number list

* An IBM part number list

* A SPARC part number list

* A lot of pages with some pictures (I tried to compile all die shots I found all around the web). Informations were mainly found on wikipedia and some books I have, but now accessible from a single page and sorted out by introduction date:

All part number lists updated! And also some fun adds:

Microsoft Xenon ES type 001 and 002:



Some IBM 486 BXL3, SLC, SLC2:







Some uncommon Intel stuff: PII THERM, PIII MECH, BGA PIII-S QS and Itanium 533 ES:








...and many other chips Smile

Nice update! And really nice work on the parts list! Applause More collectors should do this kind of research instead of just piling up on chips!

A suggestion on the images... They are pretty large in kb size but rather small in pixel size and takes some time to load. Try adding some compression to the .jpg when saving. I have added compression factor 10 (the scale is from 1-100) on one example below. In my eyes its the same image but its just one third in size. Instead use the size for larger images pixelwise.

Really like your website & listings, but it is really slow to load. Is it just me on the other side of the world (my internet connection is 12Mb/s) or is the server you are on slow?

You're absolutely right, in fact I took a bad habit with this 200ppp resolution Wink
What do you use for your pics? JPG Optimizer?

Unfortunately my provider is well known for that lol. But it's free. If somebody knows another quite good free FTP provider, I'll consider it Smile

I use IrfanView, it is free, simple and immediate.
I use 72pp of resolution for my jpgs and 70% of compression for web (90% for other uses when I need better quality).

I think any modern software that can save .jpg will do fine for what we use it for. In my case i use Paintshop pro, but i think you must have this option in your software to. Its standard .jpg options. What do you use?

I use Photoshop, which use a JPEG quality scale from 0 to 12 (better). I began to record all my pictures at 12, thinking I could optimize them later (instead scanning them again because I have regrets). And I let my collection growing... Now I realize that the size difference between 10 and 12 is huge, a x2 ratio! Laughing

So now I'm searching a light software which will allow me to optimize my pictures by batches (sure without moving them). Automating this in Photoshop with a script would be too arduous IMHO Confused

Hey, you added 3AA2-2306 to HP numbers list. Where did you find out about its frequency? I have the one in my collection too and I want to add more information about it.

P.S. Very nice addition Smile, lots of interesting CPUs.

Setting quality to 9 in Photoshop should be OK. This is what I do for my online pictures. Of course, off-line pictures remains at highest quality level.

Yes I have to consider this point, pictures are still in max. quality Laughing
