Hi Steve!
So you haven't checked how much that new old stock pentium pro in a sealed box run for these days?
You don't know there are some crazy dudes (me for example) that purchase Socket 939/754, S775, Socket-A, S370, S478 and older CPUs to build Windows XP, Windows 98 and even earlier systems (With even earlier CPUs like Slot-1, Slot-A, Socket 7 etc)
Check LGR, Philscomputerlab, Necroware, for the kind of crazy fun we can get from these old systems.
And yes it is not the same a S939 4800X2 Athlon 64 than a AM2 4800X2 Athlon 64...
If you find a S939 FX chip for example, these command a premium.
You can find the CPU using the code on the heatspreader at places like cpu-world.com ADA4800DAA6CD (OEM) / ADA4800CDBOX (BOX) The fastest CPUs from each socket always command a premium
Regards from someone that had been having fun with PCs since 1990.

I am probly your oldest sub... I was building rigs back when win 95 was all the rage (LOL)... I enjoy your honest reviews, and though I ignored your certain reviews. Got a good deal on a (new i7-11700K mated with 32Gb G skill Trident Z running at 3600Mhz.. and an XFX RX 6700 XT...Prior, I had an XFX RX 570... Horribly overworked, but made a nice secondary heat source,, in these cold Michigan winters..) I am pretty happy with how she games... On the plus side.. I put all this mess, in a Mastercooler RN600 case, (which you seem to liked) So, Yay!!,, It does what I need it to... I know, Meh effect on the CPU ... Still I am happy, I have a gigabyte z590 ud ac MB, so Overclocking the CPU is probly A moot point, thus far, anyways.. Love your content, appreciate you (all you folks)... Keep up the good work!!

32:38 Pretty sure the blue can you're talking about is CRC QD contact cleaner. I believe it has things to break up corrosion(detergents? Oleic acid similar to de-ox-it?) as opposed to the electrical cleaner you use(isopropyl and some standard petroleum distillates such as butane/pentane/hexane/naptha) which is just an evaporating solvent mixture.

Ive had most of those cpu's and still do. I did a lot of overclocking and fiddling around with stuff many years ago Jayztwocents thinks he was first to think of using aircons to cool overclocking haha, he wasn't by far.. I actally have my E6600 setup mounted on my wall. Obviously i cannot post pictures here.

couple ideas for the new space. Get a grandfather clock built and have computer parts with the GN logo act as the fact. You could also get a claw machine for the staff and put in the surplus used ram and cpus no longer used along with GN gear in the machine..

I think you should send them to Cody, over at Cody's Lab. He can recover the gold from them and make you a gold coke spoon.
