 |
|
Hi,
I just wonder if I should keep those chips or give them away for cheap money.
Or if here is something I should keep because it is or maybe becomes worth something sometimes.
I am not really collecting 486 and pentiums so I don't have much knowledge about them.
Please no PM offers as I am already in a deal and I don't want to handle out a PM auction:-)
So just help me to see if here's something I should have an eye on.
Thanks in advance, Michael |

For me, the most collectable is the U5S-SUPER25, simply because that is a processor family I want to complete 
The Pentium MMX, depending on sSpec and speed, is fairly common (some moreso than others)
Ceramic Pentium chips are fairly common in general, although I don't know about the 120 without the "-" as I don't have one so can't say they are common
The 486 with sSpec SX911 and sSpec 729 are very common
If they go up for sale then at the right price I would be interested in:
A80502120 SX994 (I don't have it without the "-" in the part number)
U5S-SUPER25 I definitely consider that collectable, and I don't have it)
AMD A80486DX4-100SV8B with no "N"
A80486SX-20 SX406
A80486DX-50 SX546 T

| The umc is fairly uncommon. The others are common. The PPro and Socket 5 pentium are worth some money despite how common they are because they contain alot of gold and so scrappers pay well for them. |

Same here if you can have many of them for sale I will buy them ! (cheap because you said they are common)
UMC U5SX 40 is worth max 25 USD. Super 25 is about two times more hard to find comparable between SX 40.

I can't remember what I paid for my U5SX 40, but it was nothing like $25. Maybe half that, although I don't remember (maybe I just got lucky, but I'm sure it was a German seller and was less than 10 EUR.
The Super25 I agree is a lot rarer. I don't remember the last one I saw for sale, and I reckon it's worth at least double what the SX40 is worth, if not more...

The UMC-SUPER25 is one of a number of UMC chips that I am still missing.

Here's another one I can throw in.
I have the complete Box, this chip is really NOS
586/133 mounted on a 486 socket
It was announced as Turbo for 486 computers |

I have the Kingston TC5X86/133 and I think they are fairly common. But a NOS one is always nice
