Hi, i find a beautiful and rare IBM MCM Power5

I think they are extreme rare because my seller told me that in 15 years of dismantling computer this was the second time they pulled this model.

I will keep one for me and sell the other to keep heal the wallet damages Smile

1x IBM Power5 MCM - 250$ (gift option please)
( With free tracked international shipping )


Thanks

Some history:
History

Technical details of the microprocessor were first presented at the 2003 Hot Chips conference. A more complete description was given at Microprocessor Forum 2003 on 14 October 2003. The POWER5 was not sold openly and was used exclusively by IBM and their partners. Systems using the microprocessor were introduced in 2004. The POWER5 competed in the high-end enterprise server market, mostly against the Intel Itanium 2 and to a lesser extent, the Sun Microsystems UltraSPARC IV and the Fujitsu SPARC64 V. It was superseded in 2005 by an improved iteration, the POWER5+.

But i pay a premium prices for the 2 and made 250km to get them, i will lower but if i donīt sell i will keep the 2 Smile

No these are either Power5 or Power5+ MCMs.
They are, however, really awesome!

Because there's different part numbers, you may get either 5 or 5+ in that lot.

Here are mine. I paid $200/$250 for each on eBay, so be prepared.
