    Pentium 4

    Yes, very rare and cool for what it represented. I have a pre production motherboard and CPU kit sample from Intel, got it by surprise. Still working after all this years, being manufactured in the capacitor plague era, is a very good thing.

    Pentium 4

    PM me, we split 50/50 of the profit hehe. Yes, I remember adverting in TV about RDRAM, crazy times. I do have a P3C-2000 MB (a board with a RDRAM chipset plus a very faulty memory translator hub that allowed the use of SDRAM, by far the most reset liking board from my computers), very bad and...

    Pentium 4

    It's very interesting how P4 is highly disregard by a lot of people, and I agree with every argument about it. But, here in Brasil a P4 has more collecting value than a P1 or P2, outrageous right? I could sell a P4 423 RDRAM kit for $ 250 USD and people will go nuts about it. Just a MB, CPU and...

    Midwest WTB: PGA CPU removal tool

    Same here. There's also an option of using clipper blades with large straight dents, usually found in older shaving equipment (also look for horse clipper blades). There's two parts, use the one that is bigger and straight. But I don't know if you are looking for a legit tool or just get the job...

    IBM 5140 Pre Purchase Evaluation

    The 5140 is here, got a good price. It's very good looking, but made my generic PS short (fortunately an intelligent one, no harm is done). It have the Serial/Parallel port adapter, but no CRT adapter. In the next week will take it apart and search for PSU problems. The plastics are in awesome...

    IBM 5140 Pre Purchase Evaluation

    From 1965 to 1988, during the military dictatorship all the imports were forbidden. So we did have some awesome clones from everything. I have a 8088 clone that have a body that looks like a 5170 in terms of design and size.

    IBM 5140 Pre Purchase Evaluation

    Yep. For comparasion, I'm into vintage computers since 2000s, never saw a single 5150 or 5160 around here. I hear from friends about 4 or 5 in Brasil, but only saw a single pic of a 5150 base unit. I know a guy that have a PCJr although.

    IBM 5140 Pre Purchase Evaluation

    No, the seller doesn't seem to have basic knowledge from this period. He states the laptop came with some newer printers lot. If the screen is definitely bad, maybe I should give up. A CRT slice will be very hard and costly to find. The problem here is purely emotional, my first computer was a...

    IBM 5140 Pre Purchase Evaluation

    Hello to everyone. I'm in the position to buy this 5140, base unit only, no power supply, maybe a bad LCD. It's a few cities away, can't have a look on it. The price is okay (around 60 USD, very good for anything from IBM around here, especially from this age). Worth the risk ? My main concern...

    Do Pentium III Tualatin systems have enough power to watch .mp4 1080p content with the right video card?

    I managed to get 1080p good playback with a P3 800 Coopermine, in a HTPC also. But with a Radeon AGP (Can't remember it now, will look later if you need) that could do the decoding part. The problem was with internet 1080p playback, the system didn't have the necessary speed to be able to handle...
