WTB: Cheapest Octane Processor I can get, for mainboard repair and boot checking.
Hi All,
  I have a few Octanes that need work and a dead Octane Mainboard (sans CPU) that needs a repair attempt.  I need the cheapest Octane CPU I can get. Normally I'd try to get it from Ian @ SGI Depot but he's not able to take orders for now and I'd like to fish the waters here to see if anyone has a junk (but known working) CPU they have lying around that they can part with.

I'm assuming I'm looking for either of these two...but I'll take anything for the right price.

R10000 195MHz (1MB L2) CPU Module (SGI PN 030-0888-004)
R10000 175MHz (1MB L2) CPU Module (SGI PN 030-1138-002)

To be clear...my expectations are like ~$50 USD, AFTER shipping costs.

This CPU will only be used to fix/check Octane Mainboards. So if anyone has an old Single CPU they got after jumping to a dual CPU or something, and the price I started looks good, let me know!

I'm in Seattle, WA.

I can Pay with PayPal, Zelle, or in person with cash (if the opportunity affords us).

Kshuff left feedback, go ahead weblacky (Ignore my post that was here before, did not check the queue like I should have.)
