Product Overview
Engineered for high-end workstations and multi-processor enterprise servers, this Intel Pentium Pro 200 MHz processor (part number KB80521EX200, S-spec SY032) is built on Intel's sixth-generation P6 architecture in a dual-cavity ceramic package. The design integrates a 32-bit computing core with 256 KB of on-package L2 cache running at full core clock speed. Features a substantial gold-plated heat spreader cap and gold-plated pin grid array, representing early high-performance 32-bit computing hardware.
Key Features
- 200 MHz core operating frequency with 66 MHz front side bus
- 256 KB integrated on-package Level 2 cache running at full core speed
- S-spec code SY032 on sA1 core stepping
- 387-pin modified staggered ceramic pin grid array (Socket 8)
- Dual-cavity purple ceramic package with gold-plated lid and gold-plated pins
- 3.3 V core operating voltage and 35 W thermal design power
Applications
- Precious metal harvesting and scrap gold recovery from vintage ceramic computing hardware
- Pin straightening restoration and testing projects for retro-computing enthusiasts
- Historical display piece or reference sample for vintage microprocessing collections
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the condition of the pins on this processor?
Multiple pins along the outer perimeter rows are bent and out of alignment. Pins will require mechanical straightening or realignment before any attempt to insert this processor into a Socket 8 interface.
Has this processor been tested for functionality?
No. Visual inspection only was performed, and function testing has not been conducted. This unit is offered as-is with bent pins for precious metal recovery, display, or pin repair.
What am I getting with this listing, and what should I anticipate taking on?
You receive the exact physical Intel Pentium Pro processor shown, complete with legible factory markings and gold-plated lid. Because multiple pins are severely bent and function testing has not been performed, this unit carries condition risk and is suited for gold recovery, scrap, pin straightening, or vintage hardware display.
Before processors hid under stamped nickel covers, high-end silicon wore real gold and heavy purple ceramic like armor. Straighten the pins for a retro workstation or harvest the metal, the craft of early P6 computing is right on the surface.
