Early IBM MCM! I guess you won`t find
any other MCM that has more gold inside
than this modules! The tousands of interconnects
inside are also surely made of finest gold....  _________________ Ordem e Progresso |

They are not so huge We have bought some with CPUshack's group buy about 2 years ago. As I good remember for 110 USD each. The final weight without HUGE heatsink but with gold metal plate around chip - 0,608 pound (276 grams). _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |
