Today's retro computing delivery came in. Saw these two Upgradeware Slot T slotkets, which are capable of running Tualatins on boards that can supply the right voltage, on the Dutch Marktplaats website. My Rev 1.10 ASUS P2B does, and I still am wanting a dual Slot 1 board that can run Tualatins to go with my two Pentium III-S 1.4GHz CPUs. I was planning on modifying some brand new MSI Master slotkets for that, but this would be easier and would save those MSIs from being potentially ruined 🤣
After a few bids, the seller accepted mine of €22 + shipping, but then asked if I was interested in more retro computer stuff. I replied that mid to late 90s, and early to mid 2000s hardware is my kind of thing, and they showed me a picture of some very nice CPUs as a reply. Asked if they had a price in mind, they asked €30 for the lot, which was already pretty damn good deal, but I still haggled it down to €25 😎

The CPUs did have a bunch of bent pins, and the Pentium 120MHz is missing two, but after some bending and... persuasion... to get into my Super Socket 7 board, I managed to verify that the Pentium 120MHz, 100MHz, 166MMX and K6-2 300MHz were working fine. I will have to test the Sempron 2300 later, and get a board for that Pentium Pro 200MHz/512KB chip 😊
