I think Markk here on the forums may be able to rival him somewhat. True story.

That's a shitload though.

jesus

Seen that pic before 🤣

Theres collectors out there with thousands of chips 😜

Not even close... I don't have more than 70-80 cpus......

I should show this to my GF so she can get off my back about having the small allotment of parts that I do have 😉

You might want to rephrase that. 🤣

LMAO, whoops

Don't worry buddy. It how you use it that counts

lame, he doesn't have a 386 dx-12...

I read the page, he has around 1k chips. Impressive! It's a lot more then I have also 🤣!

I'd hate to see that rug fall on them.... aristocratic disaster scenario waiting to happen.

*Looks at that vacuum cleaner..."Nice big electro motor, not nice for chips! 😁"*

What fsb speed does that run on? Or is it a drop in replacement for 286 motherboards?

fsb?
the 386dx has a 32bit data bus, it certainly won't drop in to a 286 😀

What I probably should have asked was what 386 motherboards run at 12mhz? I thought my SX16 board was slow.

Incidentally, I've seen NEC V20 chips that run at 12mhz. It would be interesting to see a side by side comparison of the NEC v20, 286, and 386 all running at 12mhz. Is there a benchmark program that would run on all three?

He seems to be a little lagging in the Cyrix 5x86 department.

Lol 😜

Maybe it's just an old pic when his collection was still much smaller and he now has 5 carpets full of chips instead of just 1?

😜

Very well could be.

I'd like to know where he got the Socket 7 and Socket 3 CPU holders. Those may come in handy. I was thinking it would be really geeky to place some in a picture frame and hang them on the wall.
