Show & Tell! Whip it out, let's see it!

this is some tidbits ive done in the last year. the pins were over 6 pounds and there were 9 backplanes and 38 of the imagining graphics boards.

this is a dbl post, can't delete the other post.

enjoy..

this is just a partial,

should of sold when the gold was up.. but I'll just hold onto them, they may be worth a chip for a loaf of bread someday.

How about who got the biggest pile of chips.. how about this.?

 

[glorycloud]

There might be a gram or two of gold in that lot. :lol:

Nicely done!

that picture was taken about seven months ago, just think of the size now..?

I like your Crock Pot collection in the background of one picture. I'm doing the same. Any time I see one of those, a coffee carafe or a Corning Blue Cornflower dish at a yard sale I buy 'em all.

Sorry I've hardly had time to move lately and I did promise some pics.

Here's one just for fun, and Happy New Year guys.

here are a few... Any input on the octagon platters would be great and as far as the C cupe processors these are new in the tray and got 55 of them and wgih in at .23 oz Let me know what You folks thinks thanks.

Thanks for your input on these. and now here are the processors they weigh in at .23 oz a piece and I've 55 of them new in the tray no bent pins they are C Cube processors and just curious what they may be worth Thanks in advance.

Nice!

I would try to sell the CPU:s on ebay. I did a quick search but couldn't find any previous sale. My gut feeling is that you would get between $5 and $20 per CPU from collectors. I would put up an auction with a fixed high price and "Make an offer" option enabled.

The C-Cube's are video processors. Not as collectible as CPU's but they
have an interesting look and new is a definite plus.

 

[pcscrapper]

Thanks for the kind reply, what about the octagon shaped boards, the chips in the middle that are all bunched up.. would love to know what these are there is no numbers on them. just blank but plenty of them,

as far as the cpu, I was told I could get about an ounce of gold off these 55 processors any input.?

again Thanks in advance

I have no clue on the yield of those video processors but assuming they are about 0.2g each that would be 11g of gold for the lot.
I don't think 1 Toz would be a realistic estimate.

 

[Anonymous]

Why would you assume they are 0.2G each? I'd probably go a lot lower and base my assumptions off less than 0.1g each until proven otherwise.

At least that way my sights wouldn't be unrealistically high at outset.

Only because they are gold capped on one side. For all I know they could be less.

Some nice photo's everyone. I've got a couple of ordinary ones for some but new to me. Happy New Year everyone!

And those are from Dell blades I would guess? 1855 I guess? 8) 8)

Or they could be supermicro?

Nope I'll correct myself again. I think they are from Intel servers.

 

[silversaddle1]

I just scrapped some Redline firewalls that had those exact heatsinks in them. Same processors as well.

 

[Anonymous]

Good point. Probably OEM intel servers of some "brand."
