|
|
I have a lot of intel server CPUs on their way to John at the moment.
In this lot was one itanium 2 which is different from ones I have got or seen before.
The PCB appears to similar to what used in Madison family of Itaniums but the caps/resistors layout is nothing like I have seen.
I especially has never seen any Itanium 2s (until you get to 9000 series which is totally different) with any additional components on the pin side
I will eventually find out when it gets to John.. but has anyone got or seen one similar?
Here are ebay pics cut down to the chip in question _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

thx mate for getting me on the right track
doing at bit of research.. i was surprised that both Itanium 2s & PA-8X00s can reside in the same HP9000 SuperDome system.
here is reference chart to what can be mixed in the same system _________________ There are 10 types of people in this world:

I hunted for some of them for some time (PA-8800 and PA-8900) however they are quite expensive usually. Nice find. The top looks like other PA-RISC CPUs , just soldered to Itanium package for compatibility and transition to new architecture I guess. _________________ http://picasaweb.google.com/vezhlys/CPUsCollection |
