Price: US $6.00
1 piece used MOS 8564R4 composite NTSC 40-column video chip. Free spare included. Limited time offer price. Note: Some of these chips have the letter "A" and/or the number "- 1" stamped on the front of them and some only say MOS 8564R4. We are quite sure the chips with the "A" and/or the "1" on the front are essentially identical to those without but may be a slightly different revision. Who knows! For U.S. style (non-PAL) versions of the Commodore 128. Not recommended for European style (PAL) versions of the Commodore 128 due to compatibility issues. At this low price we are not accepting any returns but there is a better chance that both of the included chips will work than that neither will.We ship these chips in special static-resistant chip boxes with black crisp anti-static foam to protect them. Anti-static chip boxes may be slightly used but in good overall condition.
Be advised, however, that the video chip is often not the problem when a Commodore 128 has no picture or video output. Oftentimes a blank or abnormal screen display is caused by a defective power supply, blown out ram chips, a blown fuse, other bad chips or some other problem. So, if you haven't ruled out other causes of a video failure on your Commodore 128 you cannot assume that the video chip is necessarily the problem. Still, it never hurts to have a spare video chip or two on hand!The photo shown may vary slightly from the actual chips you receive and the date production codes may be different. These chips are in used condition and possibly slightly blemished. Some chips may have a bit of white heatsink compound on them-- possibly more or less than photos show. Some legs on the chips may be slightly and/or noticeably bent (possibly slightly worse or slightly better than the photos)-- but not severely bent. No broken legs. Legs may take some precision to carefully straighten out. We take note of the production date codes of all chips shipped and oftentimes put little warranty stickers on the bottom of the chips-- even though we aren't offering returns on these particular chips. If you don't want little warranty stickers on the bottom of these please contact us before ordering to make special arrangements.Note: Our shipping price is a couple of dollars higher than our actual shipping cost on these normally because of our cost on the special anti-static boxes which we ship them in. Anti-static shipping boxes may be slightly used but in good overall condition.We have been selling Commodore hardware, parts and accessories for over 42 years (since 1983) and have a great reputation.
