Hi all. I have 8 pounds of sun ultraspark 3 processors. Has any one here had any experience with these? Is there a ball park price per pound any one can quote me? Estimate on yield? Thanks Mike
 
Ahhh a mystery. OK I will run these and report. I also have 5 pounds of the bases with the little fuzzy gold contact points. Any one have a method for removing the gold wool??
 
The III are the ones without pins. I processed some of them, not much of a yield. The IIIi have pins, those I had a better yield. I found those 2 types, have a low yield, compared to the Intels.
 
I have some of the "bases" that the Sun SParc CPU's make their
contact with the mother board through. I haven't processed any
but I would think AP would work well as that mesh is probably gold
over copper but that is a guess.

I also have some bigger ones that I pulled from some HP/Compaq
Alpha system boards that used the 21364 processors that have a similar
bottom to the Sun Ulta Sparc's.

Maybe I should drop some in AP and see what happens? 8)
 
Can anyone post a picture or more for others to know what we're talking about here?

Kevin
