I received an rare tillamook socket 7 cpu with sspec SL34N.
Curious if I can find one of my (super) socket 7 boards willingly to work with it at speed and with cache 😀
I feel that regarding the Tillamook alot is still not clear how to get everything working.

Those are socket 3 chips. Socket 4 is Pentium 60 and 66.

I stand corrected.

The hoarding is real 🤣

2x Opteron 250 (1C, 2.4 GHz, 90nm)

Phenom X3 8400 (3C, 2.1 GHz), X4 9100e (4C, 1.8 GHz)... both B2 stepping with TLB bug

WD 160 GB and Seagate 250 GB IDE... almost like new, only ~400 and 1400 power on hours

From Russia with Love - from Moscow arrived today two same never used cards for all interested in mobile graphics......

That said, we have enough people here, no more room. Expect to pay $1300+ a month for a 2bd/2bath in a non-shit neighborhood. And even in the bad neighborhoods are $1000+

Hah! Y'all come on down to Bama, southern hospitality at it's finest! Got lucky paying 350 a month rent in the "sticks" meaning no internet for 2bdrm/1bath house. Good thing though my landlord has a tornado bunker cause it's a necessity! No place is "utopia", take the good with the bad.

I watching Adlib Gold ebay auction. But 1200 EUR isn't for me.

What is this 486 CPU? I have same with same heatsink but cant identify without removing.

800 MHz Duron

And this magnificent heavy beast for 2 Euro! 😎

Sadly it doesn't work and it's very hard to poke around inside so I'll have to do some checking over the weekend.
From what little I've managed to see so far there are no leaking caps or corrosion, however there is some noticeable oxidation on some of the ribbon cable contact points.

Wow. That's about as much as I spent on every bit of retro hardware In own together. No Adlib stuff though...

Do you have a picture of it?

Seconded - 25$ is a good price.
Be aware that if you pick the 100mhz cpu that you most likely won't be able to run it in this board. Also it's ISA only - so no "fast" games.

That's a 386 motherboard with 486DLC cpu. It only takes 386 pinout cpus. I'd buy it for $25 😉

That all depends on prices. The AMD CPUs are worth around $6 - $7 each. Cyrix $6 - $8. The unknown 486 I would gamble on it being one of the more common, around $6. Any more and you could be disappointed.

The MB/CPU/RAM is definitely worth $25

Impossible to say exactly what it is without removing the heatsink and seeing the markings.

Looks like a DX2-66 processor since the gold plate down below is smaller than the DX-33 CPU.

Will those two be enough? 🤣

On the top it still has the thermal pad from how it was mounted in the notebook it came out so nothing to see there so far.

I was browsing in a second hand store and bought this for 2,50 euro:

Neat!

Oops - I guess it's worth something after all, given one has a use for such systems.

@Appiah4:
Just stick the cpu with the heatsink into an "expendable" board and press the power button ...with bated breath of course.
I would at least buy the Am486DX4 for the heck of running it at 40x3 or 60x2 + it's one with WriteBack cache contrary to the DX2-66.

Bought this the other week, it's a Acorn BBC micro Model B, 32K, 2MHz 6502 CPU. It has a MMC SD that acts as a 1 GB hard disk with a load of games(over 420) installed. This is an issue 3 motherboard from early 1983. The BBC computer was built around a early initiative to make the UK computer literate, it's original cost was £399 in 1982, equivalent to £1200 today. It was the machine installed in most schools here in the UK during the 1980's, eventually selling over 1.5 Million units. Acorn the designer and manufacturer of the BBC micro then went on to develop the ARM CPU in 1985, the backbone of today's computing world.

Interesting... Why would a laptop manufacturer convert a MMC1 processor into socket 7, instead of having MMC1 on the laptop side?

Before Tillamooks laptops just had regular desktop sockets for Pentiums, so I'm guessing it's so manufacturers wouldn't have to re-do or modify their PCBs
