A8249866 is cache controller running at 66 MHz, one for each pentium.
Plastic chips are cache memory, 128Kx8.
Total is 1Mb per cpu, very large L2 for that era.
Should be high performance machine.

Guys how do you know what is common and what is rare? From my perspective everything what is missing in my collection is rare Smile
But generally something is "rare" (I mean mass market product like Pentiums - not C4004 or other exotic chips and their variants) because of what? Small production amount? Availability issues then and now? Prices then or prices now? Or what?

How do you evaluate what is rare (especially personally for you) and what's is not?

first i check if i have it or not.. and how many i saw of that sspec.. for this particular case: SY016 i had at least 20-30 since i start collecting and SY017 is missing in my collection Smile .. for those i have i know their approximate value, so its easy... also i know the few that are less common in my collection...

if i dont have it, i check how many were in sales on forum, like lither said... if there are many pages , is common.. if there are few sales, good chances to be somethin' uncommon Smile

and for others, you just know in the second you see them: like Athlon SFF, Athlon Thunderbird in organic package, some DIP gold caps, white ceramic ones...
