I came across a couple of these at a university. Other than the main processor there are two more smaller Sun processors as well on the left hand side. I did some searching and could not find any info about them. Are the two smaller ones worth keeping?

these aren't processors, one chip is possibly bus controller the other cache controller. I'm always keeping entire module though

See how far you can throw it.

Only the chip on the far right will be a processor. Probably one of the ultrasparc's in a soldered ball grid array package. Around 200mhz. The rest of the chips are worthless.

Keep it on the board if you have the space to store it. Its always nice to see the chip in its "original enviroment" so to say.

With the processor and the bus controllers being gold its actually a nice looking setup. I'll keep it all together.

The heatsinks that I took off would be perfect for GPU memory heatsinks.

Based on the earlier reponses in this thread I didnt think they were worth anything so I didnt get very many. I can get 10+ of these for pretty cheap.

If you get one on a working board, I'd be very interested in it...
