Early Christmas present - Intel Batman

Likely a dead non-socketed Dallas chip so there should be a minor soldering work. But other than that looks OK.

Isn't this a Dell OEM board (because of the AUX power connector)?

Nice find! That SX753 is a pretty rare very early Socket 4 Pentium too. So not only a nice board, but a rare CPU too.

Do you have a higher resolution picture?

It's some rare proprietary keyboard (maybe for a really old word processor system?), that's for sure.

unfortunately no i haven't actually its a picture of an add and i want to make sure if its a rare item and then i will bye that batch . u know?

i think its not a pc keyboard and its belonge to a typewriter or meybe its a vintage apple computer keyboard . what do u think ?

Could be a terminal computer keyboard perhaps.

Thanks. The CPU actually did not come with the board. It is from my collection. I thought it would complement nicely the board.

Intel sold these board to OEMs, but this one is not OEM. The power connector was actually a kind of standard on early PCI boards from Intel. It was meant to be providing 3.3V for PCI slots. The idea was that even 5V PCI slots should carry 3.3V and it was required by the early PCI spec, but not sure if it was actually used by any device.

There are some 3.3V PCI cards and slots but they are kinda rare.

Most PCI cards you can encounter are either 5V or universal (keyed for both 3.3V and 5V)

An ATX backplacte 3D Print for my PCChips MB560TG motherboard and a video out breakout cable for my ATI All-In-Wonder Pro PCI (which will be used for MS-DOS capture via S-Video)

Scrap lot for less than 20€ (sellers pictures):
- 5,25" floppy
- 3.5" MFM MD
- 1x Seagate MFM HD: Critical point is usually the fragile flat cable at the front, unfortunately not visible on the photo
- 386 MB, for parts only...
All not looking good, but I hope some parts are working/repairable

wish i could find a 486 board again but their prices are absolutely ridiculous

Bought me a Chrismas present. 😁

A later Flytech Carry-1.

This one has ISA + PCI, so a Voodoo1 will go in there. 😀

I have 486 boards that require repairs beyond my capability and would gladly ship them to you if you didn't live in the US. 😒

Are you looking for particular 486 boards? The last (3) 486 VLB boards I got off Ebay were under $50, the cheapest being $19 shipped. I wouldn't consider that too bad.

Happy Holidays everyone.

YES !....I finally got an SGI computer.
It's an SGI Indigo-2 and it's loaded.

The machine has the GR2-Elan graphics with 4 geometry engines and a reality engine.
A Quantum hard drive with a capacity of 3.2 gigabytes is installed in the workstation.
8 x 16 MB RAM are installed.

Made in Switzerland.

Needed a modern beige mouse and keyboard to complete my Ryzen sleeper build. Keyboard is the AJAZZ AK510. Quality brown switch mech USB keyboard. Fully configurable LED backlighting.

Nothing, but pure awesome! Wonder if this cool Christmas find/release will run on that system?

Project Reality Shark Demo

Love the Indigo. I had a blue Indy on my desk in my first job. I hate IRIX since then 😀

It was $3 so I grabbed it.

Not sure what to do with it. I suppose I could use it for adding SBPro/OPL3 to a non-ISA system. These cards don't work well without PC/PCI with i810/15 chipsets, do they? (In Windows 98 I mean, using DOS windows..)

It was $3 because its possibly a fake. As I recall, these Yamaha chips only come in square packages.

Not a fake.
