This presentation was alright, but it would have been better (for me) if you would have broken it down to tell how many cpu's were in a kilo and/or how much individual cpu's were worth.

The collectors value on those top 5 chips is worth well more than the miserable gold inside. A pentium pro for example contains about a gram of gold, but is worth more than the gold value on Ebay.

So sad that this is what is happening to all of these old CPUs. Anything pentium 1 and earlier should be preserved if it's not broken. Since they are starting to become quite collectible and valuable.

a lot of the CPUs there is worth a LOT more then the "gold value" as is for ppl that collect them or use them. the i8086 "ceramic/non gold" ones is 25$ and up for one. the same with most of thees CPU's. unless they r damage don't take them apart. complete system boards and so on as well. some of the boards you r taking apart can cost 500$ and more to replace.

I'd rather have $500 for gold scrap tomorrow than sit on what amounts to nothing more than trinkets for possibly YEARS at a time to find the right buyers to make $1500. You should watch his other videos before making a comment based on ignorance. Better yet, YOU try and scrap professionally sitting on piles of shit for years on end and see how you do. See if you even have any shelf space left after a few months. When I was a kid my dad used to tell me that something is only worth what a man is willing to pay for it. When you find a few POUNDS of old processors, good luck selling even a few for your $25 a pop.

Personally I would sell them and then use the cash to buy Fine Gold without having the need to process, recover and refine. There is no requirement that you must keep the paper money...which I do agree will ultimately decline in purchasing power. Of course my Fine Gold is marketable whereas it is much more difficult to sell or barter with Gold Plated crap. But feel free to do as you please.

I watched a guy burning it in his back yard, (very environmental) then rolling in a old gas drum for 2 days for 1 gram per kilo. I wonder what the hourly rate of pay would be for doing so?

Imagine how much more you could make selling a kilo of those seperately instead of getting the gold out of it.

Your terminaligy for the AMD aluminum comparison to the AMD Ceramic Athlon Thunderbirds and Duron Thunderbirds is incorrect because that's not a heatsink on the AMD Aluminum K6, K6-2 or K6-3 it's a heatspreader because there is a difference if not a major one. Gold Caps for the Cyrix probably isn't the right terminalogy either as those are at least now considered processor lids, but considering processors were different then with the socket 7 vs the LGA socket 1366 and it's followups maybe you're right.

50$US/kg = 0.05$US/g Gold price is about 50$/g, which means there is 0.001 g of gold /g of CPU. How much does each CPU weight? I estimate 50 g, so it is 2.50$ of gold per CPU. 0.05 g of gold per CPU. Density of gold = 19.3 g/cm3 So volume of 0.05 g of gold is 0.0026 mL = 2.6 uL (This is a tiny drop) 1 g of gold occupies 0.052 mL of volume.

no your using the wrong figures, your basing gold content on what refiners pay for cpu's, not what they get from cpu's. there's 2.5g - 8g of gold per 1kg of ceramic cpu's

eWaste Ben So if the value of gold is 50$/g, then 1 kg of CPUs can have a value of 125$ to 400$ of just gold. How about recycling christmas lights? It has gallium in the LED crystal. It is like a 1 mm cube per LED. With 1000 LEDs, you can have 1 cm3 of crystals. I bought 100 g of Ga for 158$. Value for gallium is around 1.50$ to 2.50$ per g.

Where do you sell to? I'm in central Illinois (United States) and the only place I've really found is board sort. I only scrapped about 6 pc's, and have a lot of mid grade boards and peripheral boards. Cpu's, Hdd boards, a little ram, power supplies, whole hdd's, disk drives, ect. Not a ton of money... But it will cost an arm and a leg to ship this stuff to them. How does anyone make money selling smaller amounts of e-scrap?

Sorry my last post was so long but I'm still excited due to the response (and sales) I've been getting over the past week. One item I picked up (everything was free, by the way), was a 5 X 5 inch white ceramic CPU (?) looking piece.....it is about a half inch thick and heavy. loaded with gold pins. The interesting part was that it was encased in an aluminum "heatsink" which, when I took it apart, had 30 or more large, solid copper cylinders encased in oil.....and ideas what this is?? It was sitting on it's own so I have no idea what it came out of.....thanks, Patrick

Hey sir... have a question re: AMD K5 Double Gold Cap CPU. I can't find much on that particular cpu. Plenty on the regular metal cap but not much on the possible content of the k5 double gold cpu. Any info or direction for that processor? Thanks from 'Merica.

there wouldn't be much more value then a 486 because it's what's inside that counts, so maybe add 15% for the extra cap

nice, i thought the pentium pro was the best one value for gold recovery, but only number five! never saw that intel 8086 so closely, and different then the others, i had an amd 486 dx2, wondering how much worth it was, should be great to know how much in each cpu (in pentium pro 0.3g gold)
@anthonyortega3136
@anthonyortega3136 6 жыл бұрын
illimited knowledge the Pentium pro is the most valuable in gold. The reason it is number 5 is because a kilo of the Pentium pro chips gives you about 20 cpu's, at about half a gram of gold per cpu you get 10 grams of gold. The number 1 chip on his list only had about .2 grams of gold per chip but because they are smaller you get about 60 chips in a kilo, which equals about 12 grams of gold. So if buying a kilo the Pentium pro is number 5, if you were buying an equal amount of chips the Pentium pro is way more valuable.
