The previous owner must have spent a fortune in those dual slot systems. Those must have been very rare. At my workplace I got a dual CPU workstation almost 10 years ago and it was very expensive.
@@66mhzbrain that makes a lot of sense. Time is money and 2 CPUs cuts compile time in half. That is the reason I had one despite it costing as much as 4 regular machines.
@@thedopplereffect00 cool, that makes sense. Multicore cpus were well established before I got into all that. They will be fun to mess around with.. If they work. The mother of all spiders was in one of them when I got it, I guess it's found a dark corner in the house somewhere as it wasnt there when I made the vid 😬
I got one of those huge bnc crt monitors from a place i used to work at years ago, it wasn't in use, so I asked if i could take it. I remember barely managing to carry it out of there, it weighed so much! Sadly it's long gone.
That EIZA-monitor even does have seperated BNC connectors for RGB, vertical and horizontal signals, nice. Not sure, if that really increases image quality back in the days, but nice to this again. Bit of a shame that the devices suffered so much of water damage. Pressing all my thumbs that you can get the most of it. 👍
Thankyou! yes its a nice monitor, will experiment with the bnc when I get time. I'll be happy if I can get 4 or 5 of these restored and working and some spare parts😁
Don't discount the Phillips 4:3 flat panel TV as a useful monitor. Many times they are quite useful for the multiple inputs on the rear, as well as the simple fact they have the correct geometry for older machines. Some of them even support 15khz analog RGB for the older 8/16 bit computers.
I started with a MJN 486, probably cost more than I've ever spent since, especially as I had to buy a soundcard and CD too, the original SB16 (mine was ASP multiCD) and the CR563
Try to save them all! And that Phenom would have the most potential power of them all seeing as that can be anywhere from a 1 core to 4 core chip. Unless one of those was a core2duo or better that is. Should clean, test, and experiment with them all.
15:07 Not boring me at all! I love this kind of thing, I’ve got tons of old mainboards that would fit right in with some of this stuff. 18:51 An X****! 👌🏻 The AGP variant is not very common, they’re also not the most expensive AGP cards in the world but I’d love to have one in my collection (edited as to not give the reveal away)
It was an outdoor shed that leaked. They were in there for 4 years apparently. I'll be pleased if I get a few working machines, or a pile of parts. But I'll do ehat I can for each of them.
That's one hell of a haul.
It is😁, hope some of them work🤔

He's a self employed software engineer and lived in a rather expensive looking house😁

I think it's the same signals as VGA so you can use an adapter.
It has vga and bnc rgb
@thedopplereffect00 haha, just realised you meant bnc to vga?

Cool, thanks for the info. Might clean it up and try it with an amiga 500😁
Cool haul, looking forward to the mystery machine reveal and video card reveal.
Pretty cool dual slot system, hope you get everything working.
Enjoy!
Thank you,, should ve fun 😁

Thats the plan 😁
mate, thatwas a lucky haul! dual slot1 cpu boards are rather expensive these days, if you find them! very nice pick up!!
Yes, they were a nice surprise😁
Now that is to be a nice series: How many computer will be saved?
Haha, there wer 13 (I think 🤔). I'll be happy to get 4 or 5 working and tidied up, maybe more. And harvest some decent parts from the others.
@@66mhzbrain Can´t wait. Mostly for those dual CPU computers.

Cool, didnt really think about agp x cards being useful, I will enjoy messing around with it and working through these machines😁
yeah the one with a celeron 331 has agp and skt 775 - u should see if its core 2 duo compatible - but it might just be a 775 pentium /celeron board
Always worth a look, but you know as well as I do, chances are it’s gonna be limited to the Netburst CPU’s.
You've got a lot of work to do to restore them all... Some of them look really bad, they were probably stored in a damp basement somewhere.

4:00 Oof, a Q-Tec PSU. Protect your ears, they are LOUD!
They were popular! , I've collected about 6 from different pickups over the years😁
Happy fettling!👍👍
Thankyou😁
i need a p3 600mhz katmai for my slot 1 machine, that's the max it can take!
Not sure what the max is for this one, they're nice cpu's! I'd give you one but then id be one short😉
@@66mhzbrain lol
do you like cleaning all the grime off?
Haha, no. I taste rust for the rest of the evening.
