Thanks!
 
Pentium 4's.
Does the top one have pins? If it doesn't it's 775.
I think the other might be socket 478, if that's a 533MHZ FSB on the P4 it could be from the RDRAM era 478, as opposed DDR.

I could be wrong, I'm not good with older stuff.

No pins on both, most of the front writing is faded a lot so i can't tell what it says apart from they're both manufactured in malay?

Wow so these really are relics then lol
 
Google the codes on them, the bit before MALAY

Top ones a 3.4 GHz P4 Socket 775 single core

Bottom one is the same, but 2.8 GHz

I think?

Does anyone know how much they were once worth on release day?

I can't remember. I remember buying a P4 Northwood - Extreme Edition and I think I paid £250 for it, and they were at least double that - that was in the day that e-auctions were less "exploited" than they are now.

I'd say around £100-£150 when launched but that's a real guess.
 
Home PCs used to cost crazy money back then, I remember guys talking about close to a £1000 and thats for now't special back in the 90's
 
I was right :confused:

Except there's a none LGA 775 variant? I never knew that :p
Talk about a lucky guess.

Haha or maybe you're just that good ;)

I would consider that expensive then compared to what we pay no if you take inflation into a count?

I still have my Gateway Boston Accoustics 2.1 MediaTheatre speakers infront of me now, approx 14 years later. They were a good purchase!

i remember my old gate way speaker, they lasted about 10 years before they went dead on me. They were really good as well being 2.1 speakers with that hefty subwoofer lol

Remember mine were baige white!
 
give it another 10 years we'll be saying the same about the current crop of cpu's

my hp pavillion has a pentium 4 in it so they arnt that old,circa 2004/2005?
 
I don't have the boards for these cpu's anymore so doubt i can see if they work. Was actually considering binning them.
