This is a DEC Alpha CPU. There are a few different styles of these out there with the bolts on top to connect to the heat sink. What would these classify as since I didn't see any category specific for this. Just Double Sided Gold CPU? Want to make sure since the Pentium Pro is just ever so slightly bigger and they got their own category.

Gold caps on both sides makes it a Double Side Gold CPU.

Wow! that came from back in the day when they used a lot of high quality materials in computers. Do you know what type of system it came out of? Must be pre Compaq.
