I found this ancient AMD board in the closet of my bathroom yesterday. It looks interesting, This thing is pretty old it doesnt even have DVI on the rear IO let alone HDMI. Here is a pic of it

It suppose to be this

But what is most interesting to me is when I take off the heatsink I saw this

I think it is some kind of integrated nvidia gpu but im not sure. Tell me what u think it is

I'm pretty sure that is the integrated graphics, I didn't think amd had integrated graphics on desktop cpus at that time. Maybe for laptops.

 

 

Edit: Learn something new everyday...

Psh, I've seen older boards. I think I still have a PC somewhere that doesn't even have SATA ports...

Nvida North/southbridge, it controls things like the PCI/PCI-e devices, SATA, USB, etc.

Not to derail the thread, but look at this bad boy:

No SATA, no audio, no video, no CPU socket, no problem.

Cpu sockets? Nah

Cpu slots? Hell yeah lol

 

Looks like something like a pentium II would go there.

One bitchin' workstation board from the 90's(98 if not 99). Its my pride and joy. This is back when PC's were actually cool.

I kid you not, I had a computer with that exact same motherboard.

Mine was in a HP Kayak XM600, and it had a RAM riser card that added slots.

So pissed off at myself that I sold the damn thing.

I'm mad at you too then lol

The HP had a green version of my board, probably because of it being an OEM order for HP:

Yeah I forget what colour it was, might need to sift through my photos to see if I can find the pictures I took of it.

The Slot 1 processors were awesome to tinker with, I remember the first time trying to extract one from a computer and hoping that I wasn't going to break the supports lol

After going through about 20 CD's worth of photos, I've FINALLY struck gold and found some pictures of the HP Kayak I had.

I'll try posting them in a spoiler because these pictures are in 1024x768.
