Top 15 CPU's for GOLD - High Yield Gold Recovery 

Pentium Pro Black is more valuable for vintage collectors. Selling to a vintage collector will make you more money that the value in scrap. Great video ! Very informative! Thank you !

First person I have seen talk about cpu gold content. Very compelling to watch . Ace!

For the number 1 chip the Pentium Pro plastic, at today's prices for gold AUD$54.80 (bid) 0.55 gram is $29.59 just for the gold content. Impressive Benny! Just a guesstimate but if you have a 100 processor chips (likely you have many more) then at a good average of $15 per chip, there's AUD$1500 in gold in chips! Well done and well deserved given the huge amount of work you put into scrapping.

Great video Ben. Right now I am going to see how many CPU I have that are on your list as I bet many of the other viewers are. Have a great day.

Why destroy expensive collectors items to get less than half the value in gold?

I don't know if I'm going to be able to part with all my cpu's when I go for the gold. At first it was all about getting the cpu's and ewaste just for the gold and other pm but now I think I'm going to want to keep one of each! I'm thinking more of a collector than gold recovery. Which in time the Pentiums, 486's and cyrix etc, will possibly be worth more than double the gold content. Who knows maybe more than 10x!! Have a GREAT Day My Friend!!!

Hi , I've been watching your channel for the last month or so , I've used some info I've grained from your videos from top yielding gold plated CPU's /Pins and diff ways to exact gold . Ive open recently my own electronic scrap you recycling company and had a few members of my family on my team and things were so great . Had great founding , great grovement founding as well . They were such a big help with the whole process , it was a first for me and my friends of the grovement being such a big help in these ways that they were doing , and going out of thier way all the time to make sure how we were doing . About a year ago when we started seeing a big rise in covid-19 cases and things were shutting down ect ect ..... Was about to shut down shop because nobody was dropping off electronic's anymore and founding went down with nobody dropping off anything because of covid-19 . I had to take a very small step back and take a small break to save up money again , by saving on running costs and the day to day expenses . And last month I was in the middle of doing research research and more researching ... Found the best , absolutely the all time best online company B2B seller called Alibaba.com and was able to increase my revenue for my Export/Importing online Company and force on this company of my . Did lots of paper work , from reach

I have a friend that owns a computer store in West Virginia and I used to work in a warehouse that he owns as well but I have done alot of recycling etc for him, but yeah if you take the time to collect and bunch of them and piece them out you can make money for sure. But you are awesome for letting people know how to go about doing the stuff.

Good information, thank you for all the time you took to make the videos!

Thank you Ben! I was hoping for an extension vid from your "Top 10 CPU" video! Really cool that you put gold yield with this one!!!! This one is very different than the "Top 10 CPU's" since that was graded on the value per kilo, which changed things a lot. I like both vids because both of them are very different. To the subs, if you have NOT seen the top 10 CPU video I'd encourage you to go back & watch it!

I like to watch this one. Second time I watched since the 1st time 5 months ago. I'm going to have this on my twice a year watch list!!!! Thanks for the Awesome videos you always seem to put out!!!

As an IT-Nerd this makes me cry. Imagine being told "You can melt oldtimers from the 70ies for iron." Yes I can, but you can always make a CPU to Gold. Not vice versa, as they will never be made like that again. In the next 50 years the CPUs will become way more valuable. Maybe Gold too, but you could scrap them then. This is just sad to watch. I can understand that you don't have the same love for those chips, but my tip is: Just keep the CPUs for a delayed reward. Instead of the instant gold you can get. Regardles of that a good and informative video. No bull**** but straight to the point.

Every time you said "cache" I thought you were saying "case," took me until you were talking about Megabytes to realize lol

That is one HELL of a collection! SWEEEET!

Love the pentium pro background

Love your videos! I’m a scrapper myself and have found your videos to be very helpful.

Thank you very much sir.

Thanks for the valuvable Information❤️

I live in Atlanta Georgia which is in the U.S. and I heard you say that the #1 Pentium pro piece is worth $25 .Wow I never new that my friend so thanks for the advice on everything and I will let you know if I ever get lucky enough to find any and hopefully I will be able to start scrapping here soon, I used to live in Martinsburg West Virginia and I used to scrap alot with my brother awhile back and we did pretty good sometimes but some days are better than others but all of us scrapping type people knows that we have to take the good days with the bad days right...

The pentium pro CPUs are selling for 100 to 150 dollars to collectors but you are destroying them to recover 5 dollars of gold? You can't see the forest for the trees!

I’m pretty sure you are over estimating the amount of pure gold in several CPU’s from my experience. The VAX DEC CPU’s have produced .17g of pure gold for me. It also has a bit of silver. Total precious metals might be closer to your weight. Pentium pro ceramic has produced .3 ish grams of Pure gold for me. What process did you use. Clean and torch off consumables then: Crush, AR, drop? Crush, dilute nitric out base metals, AR, drop? Let me know if you would. Thanks for your good work ✌️PT

Nice background 🙌

Nice topic Ben.

Good job man i like your videos , and your work . good luck :) hallo from Bulgaria

So basically the older they are, the more gold in them. It makes sense.

Where do you get these yields from!?

This was very interesting. Thank you.

good video and thanks for the info

Thanks for sharing!. Nice collection, If you feel you have to many You can give them to me. lol

You are the big boss Really Thanks for your information

Great info! Thanks Ben!

Nice collection Ben !

All are getting rare these days if you find an old 386 or older it would definitely be worth more selling hole even if not working

Wow thanks for sharing this with us. Are you going to show us how to remove the gold?

Funny to see you promote those odd looking 80186's for scrapping. There is a company in Luxemburg that rebuilds special avionics, they buy these 186 processors for 100 euro's each. Way more than the scrap value.

Hello Ben. Do you sell to me some i miss in my collection? only one of each i need. Great info and videos! Enjoy your holidays!

Interesting video, Thanks mate ;)

Hello friend, those amounts you indicate are per unit, thank you, excellent explanation

Where have you got your data from? The Plastic PPro info is interesting but your data doesn't seem to tie up with the reality of processing these CPUs (in some cases). .

Interesting video, nice info but still there are many things that can go wrong in gold recovery so I rather sell them, if you ask me. But this video is 👍 and I thank you for your time and effort. Big 🌟 for you! (Of course gold star)

Thank you very much for this information

I can just say it’s beautiful My favourite is only pentium pro Buy now its not easy to get this kinds of processors 🙂

Ok , but Can't you get More Money for a Working CPU for Use in an Older Computer ? I mean I would cash some in if they Under Preformed . But the goal is to Keep the CPU's around for little Johnny in 2043 so He can fix up Vintage Computers . :) QC

This vid just blew my mind!! 👌👍💪✌️

I honestly thought the 186 and maybe 286 would be on this list. Considering they're older and older stuff is usually alot heavier on precious resource use. I guess the size increase in the chip itself more than made up for the fact that they were more efficient with using the gold.

What about the socket 4 pentium? It's larger than the one shown in this video (which is socket 5/7), and also has gold casing on both sides. The socket 5/7 does have more pins though, so I'm not sure which has more gold.

Тhank you, Ben!

eWaste Ben your saying too litle 1:20.Witch part is golden just the pins or the plate as well?

Very intresting i just like to collect them not going for gold just saving my cpu ram and high grade boards for early retirement thanks for the video from holland

These are like rare coins nowadays. Even sound like them.

cool vid loke that and cool background

i960 comes in several different packages, a small verison with gold cap and gold pins, larger verions both gold pins, but one has a gold cap and the other does not. Than a larger verison with gold cap and gold pins, and the QFPD chips with no gold or very little insides the ic package.

Can you check the MC68EC040 CPU? That's the 040 CPU from Motorola 68k. It looks very similar to 486DX2 at gold side, around 0.20 g.

Hello Ben this is a good video that does not over estimate gold content? A pentium pro CPU has.30 grams of gold, I not sure about the plastic pentium pro CPU because I hold on to them I didn't see the AMD K5 in the list? I didn't skip ahead LoL

I remember Cyrix MII, one of my first processors i bought when I was younger.

are these numbers accurate, caz I read everywhere, that we get for instance 0.2 gram of gold for intel 486 not per cpu but per kilo...i am kinda confused, which info can be trusted?

Hello Ben, rich collection, like

Neub here… Where do you find collectors for these? Do you just post them on Ebay or a similar platform? Thank you for any help. Have a great day.

is amd semprom,alhlon xp pgs cpu are worth scrapping ????

Your explanation was great, but it is missing an important thing, which is how many cpus per kilo?

what about DLP projection TV CPU's, how much gold there?

Whaaaaaat 0.55 gold in the pentium pro "plastic"!!! That's why they said "plastic fantastic". I was hoping there would be at least a processor with 0.5 gram gold and there is!!! And the background of this video contains rouhgly 1 troy ounce of gold when extracted 😍😍😍😍 (60 times 0.44 grams is roughly a Troz.) Do you extract the gold yourself or do you sell them as they are? (If you do, a video on it would be awesome) What is the average pay out of the intel pentium pro? Happy holiday mate!😎😎

Congratulations

Hello! great video. could you please advise on where can one purchase the used cpus? so one does not get scammed. thanks in advance.

I have a Smith & Wesson 686. Great video.

Hello Friend, can you tell me where to buy a large quantity of intel ceramic cpu at a good price?

Hi Ben would u show how u would process the gold from ur cpu' s? it would make sense added to this video. Thanks

Hey Ben, the yeild? Was that on average per piece?

Anyone have information of cpu processor suplier?

I mean no offence here but you realize you very much so contradict yourself if you compare this video to your older one... the older one you said the Intel Pentium produced less then what the Intel Pentium Pro did.. Now you are saying the opposite? Not to mention you said in your old top ten video that the Intel 386 produced more gold then any of the Intel Pentium Pros so what gives???? Is it the fact that the last one was done in kilograms vs cpu it self also if that is the case it would be nice to get a beginning weight on the cpu and the weight of gold per cpu

Pentium Pro has 0.3 at max. I've seen professionals process it, and get 0.3 every time! And I think the RISC processors are not more than 0.3 either.

Good evening, I would like to know if you are negotiating processor scrap, and if you would be sent to Brazil.

I have md-K6 what is thee difference in a k5

What about weitek grey ceramic chips , some with gold caps and some without. I found a bunch and cant find anything about them

Which electronic contains that item?where can I find them?please.thanks

Like how much gold content in intel 286 and 386?

pentium pro 256 kilobytes 200 megahertz is enough for me but via C7 and cyrix 6x86 are cheaper efficient good quality processors for 32 bit computer systems but pentium i486 dx2 for 16 bit computer systems

Hello I'm looking to buy cpu processors.If you sell please inform me!

Hi were do I buy these from

How many gold is in the 186?

Its kind of sad to see these get destroyed to get gold out of them. I was lucky enough to find an actual HP vectra motherboard with a Pentium pro CPU that is actually working, and it is something rare in this area to see, There are many cpu collectors out there, sooner or later it will be worth more for collectors than worth for gold recovery purposes. Remember how metal was used on world war leaving few things on each house, and now those very few items that survived are worth a lot of money

Where can I buy them at 10 to 100 kilos

Where does one go about finding these beauties and how do we know what we should pay for a pound?

Hey i been watching your videos for a lil while know I would like to know where you got all those pentium pros at you got a supplier?

jesus somedays i hate ebay. i lost an auction because ebay had technical difficulties. this week i had a chance to buy a collection of 5.5kg old ram, 2kg (52pcs) ceramic cpu's(6pentium pro, 21 pentium goldcaps and a few others like cyrix686, ibm, amd etc. plus 500g intel and amd fibre) for about 320$. i mean its not that cheap but it makes me crazy, i think about that lot every day. its always the same with good auctions like that one, either people pay astronomically/ridiculous high prices or you miss out on something because of effing difficulties.

Oh GOLD

Good,,** thsnkz my friends,,,,,**

is there also palladium in the ceramic cpu??

Hello every body, can tell me where I can buy a ceramic cpu processor scrap?

100kg Pentium pro cpu scrap how much gold recover

Just wondering how do you sell them or scrap the gold out of them?

hello the amount of gold coming out of this 1 processor?

Muita informação, obrigado...

Please don't melt it I will pay double the price for vintage process . Some people collect this old processor.

They are not making any more of these CPU's, so better to wait some more years and sell them worth more than the gold value. Like they are not making any more land, land can be a good investment.

How much are you selling per kg? How can I get them?

hi i need cpu scrap for Dubai any Genuine source?

Where can I get it at a good price?please

Are Pentium Pro's still rare? The plastic pentium pro seems more rare.

Almost all that is incorrect dont buy based on those yields but good video to see what's good
