Motherboard of a model with an Intel i486SX microprocessor, with an elongated connector (black, horizontally in the middle/left between upper and lower edge) for a riser card on which the ISA bus slots were located

The PS/ValuePoint (or just ValuePoint) personal computer was IBM's answer to the PC clone market, where the IBM PS/2 could not compete due to price and proprietary interfaces. Announced in October 1992 and withdrawn in July 1995, it was replaced by the IBM PC Series 300.

Specifications and history

PS/ValuePoint 325T in use

These systems used standard Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) bus, SVGA graphics and IDE hard disks. Later models introduced VESA Local Bus and PCI.

Processors range from the 386SLC-25, 486SX-25, 486DX-33, and 486DX2-66 to the Pentium 60.

IBM PS/ValuePoints were shipped in the following form factors:[1]

  • Space saving desktop introductory: IBM 6381 model #: /Si (3 expansion card slots & 3 drive bays)
