slotket CPU

[mthomasdev]

Interesting find today while dismantling a bunch of desktops. I've never seen one of these before. It was basically a Socket 370 (Pentium III chip) on a card that went into a Slot 1 motherboard. Wondering how common these where. I'll try to post a photo in the next day or two.

Did some research and found out that they had these for Socket 8 chips (Pentium Pro) also.

A day or two for a photo, good lord MT. Go digitial, no need to use a dark room.

:P

Sounds like you found one of those boards that was in that "on the verge" crossovers.
I've pulled up many boards in Compaq Servers (Proliants) that I have a Pentium Pro Board, and the information out there on the interweb is like "Proliant blah blah blah" with a Pentium 3.. I'm like "No no no.. not crappy Pentium 3.. Pentium GOLDEN Delicious Pro!!"

I didn't take a photo at the shop today. Not sure I'll be there tomorrow. And I suck at getting photos to post on SMF

I know. Just figured I'd explain myself.

[Sirscrapalot]

I know you know but come on man, I got to use "Get your goat" twice in one post!

Good job taking one for the team!

Sirscrapalot - Betting Thomas isn't really that...wait for it....Baaaad at taking an posting photos.

Top is a Pentium 2 Slot processor

Bottom 2 are Slotkets. Pinned Pentium 3 processor in the Slotket which fits a Slot 1 motherboard.

Those are so cool. I believe I'd have to keep them.

I have never seen a Slotkets.
Never seen a slot processor card WITH a socket on it and a CPU like that- VERY cool find!

[auminer]

And here I thought ""slotket"" was a typo....

[Breakage]

I heard these existed but I hadn't seen one. I was told about "slockets" and I kind of assumed someone was making a mistake in describing it. I will be on the lookout for them.

Thanks!

I have one of those slotkets, I also have one which has a memory stick slot on it, and maybe one which has two CPU on it.(server?)
Its been a while since I looked at them.

Do you feel bad now doubting Thomas?

I have a growing collection I guess, we found one today to go with the one I already have.

Socket 370 or socket 8?

I found one from a desktop I picked up from a thrift store. I also got a really old server on wheels that had a huge motherboard inside and a foot long slot card with two black fiber CPUs on it. Great addition to my collection! I may post a picture sometime soon if I can remember to do it!

[manjelle]

I think i have a few of those as well
