I've just updated my CPUs (and other chips) collection with lot of new items. Most of them I got from very helpful CPU collector from USA who kept them for several months in his house, however, other arrivals were interesting too. This update was one of the most joyful for me as it added several new architectures, engineering samples and other rare, unusual chips. No other update had so much rare items. I still working on photos to picasa web album (as it is still the main "place" of my collection, though I started a work on management program and planning to redo my website which is quite dead now. I guess it can take a long time to finish but I determined to do everything this year). I'll add some photos from earlier updates too (generally QED, PMC MIPS CPUs and one i960).
New architectures:
Western Electric 32100 (hunted for a long time)
National Semiconductor 32032
NEC V60 (I've got newer NEC V70 actually)
Engineering samples
Intel Itanium 9040 ES (dual core Montecito with 18MB cache)
Motorola 68EC000 Sample (low cost 68000 for embedded controller applications)
IDT 79RC32V334-150BB Eng. Sample (MIPS RC32300 processor)
Fujitsu MB86903-40 ES
AMD 8100048021 Opteron Engineering Sample Socket 940 (yes, one more exception, but it is worth and I'll try it in action if it will boot)
Other interesting CPUs and chips:
Compaq Alpha 21264C-1225TPN (my first Alpha made by Compaq and first 21264C model)
HP Alpha 21364 - 1150 /EV7 (first Alpha made by HP and first 21364 model)
Unfinished DEC support chip for Alpha systems (beautiful)
Fujitsu MB87327B - (most likely) Clipper C400 early MMU before integrated CAMMU (cache and memory management unit) chip was introduced. My own research helped to identify it with help of other collectors.
Intel 80960MX SD014 chip die (first real CPU die in my collection)
AMD 29000 337-2900 (first my 29000 model (I had 29040), unusual markings)
Enjoy these photos now:
