I came across a box full of these. I'm pretty sure of classification, but am preparing my first shipment and want to be sure. In regards to the memory sticks, are these ram?

First picture starting from left to right.

First row
1 and 2 are black fiber CPU's, 3 is a double side gold CPU, 4 and 5 are AMD Ceramic CPU's.

Second row
1, 2, and 3 are 486 CPU's, 4 and 5 are double side gold cap cpu's

Third row
1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are 486/386 CPU's, 6 is a 8086 Gold Cap with Gold Legs IC, and 7 I am unsure of.

The memory pictured is Silver/tin fingered on the top and gold fingered on the bottom.

With the tin fingered, you can trim the fingers off and sell it as trimmed memory for more per pound.

Please refer to the pricing guide for prices.

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I figured as much, but needed to be sure. I usually process my gold fingers, but am going to start processing silver fingers and the like too. On row 1, #5 says 486 on it. That wouldn't count as 486/386 class? I know pic is a little fuzzy. Sorry, bad lighting.

A 486/386 CPU is an intel product, That one has the AMD logo on it so it is not a 486, The number on it simpily means that is is a i486 class, which is a 16 or 32 bit CPU at the time.

In the E-Scrap gallery, in the 386/486 Gold Top or Bottom section, it shows 2 pictures of AMD cpu's with gold bottoms. The cpu in the picture in the AMD ceramic section of the E-Scrap gallery doesn't have a gold top or bottom. I would think 4 and 5 in the first row might go as 386/486 gold bottom cpu's. I could be wrong though.

To get 386/486 pricing on a ceramic chip, the chip must be from the 386/486 family and have the gold cap on the bottom of the chip. Absence of the gold cap will put it with the Pentium ceramic chips.
