Maybe you can use the same mod to bump the FSB from 1333 to 1600 on the cheaper ones

SOunds like a good idea, not sure if it will work or not.

If not, the 5462 looks nice!

This looks like the next dual socket 771 board:

Supermicro's 5400 chipset-based serverboard products support the next-generation quad-core Xeon 5400/5300 (Hapertown/Clovertown) and dual-core Xeon 5200/5100 (Wolfdale/Woodcrest) processors. With up to 1600 MHZ front bus speed, supports 128GB low voltage high performace 800 MHZ (1.5V) FB-DIMM memory, high bandwidth PCI-Express Gen. II slot capability, and new intelligent management support, these Supermicro server boards are ingeniously designed in various optimized models.

And just how many normal quads could you build for the price of this one?

[UncleBob]

And just how many normal quads could you build for the price of this one?

Quite a ew indeed...just it takes more than 1 PSU!

[Jay See Bee]

I think this one is the best one to get especially if the FSB mod is possible:

Quad-core Intel Xeon processor E5410 2.33 (80) 12MB 1333 $256 NOW

[scruff35]

I`m with Jay on this one. That`s a more reasonable price, plus it doesn`t hurt to have 12mb cache.

[UncleBob]

Yeah, that's a good combo indeed! I just don't know if the tape trick works here, I'll have to keep an eye out in other forums!

[Jay See Bee]

Yeah, that's a good combo indeed! I just don't know if the tape trick works here, I'll have to keep an eye out in other forums!

With the tape trick your Xeon 5320 is running at 2.33Ghz

This Xeon 5410 is already running at 2.33Ghz so if the trick works it's a complete bonus

[UncleBob]

Yup!!

Just send cheque...I'll do the rest!!

[Jay See Bee]

Yup!!

Just send cheque...I'll do the rest!!

I'll put it in the mail on Monday

[UncleBob]

I'm standing out by the mailbox right now!!

[UncleBob]

We are starting to crunch like the pack of wild dogs we are!

Total credit 2,618,565
Recent average credit 28,552.61

#29 in Recent Average Credit
The dual quad is #30 in production (may actually be getting another one of those reeeeeeeal soon!)

The Frogs have moved up to #28 in Recent Average Credit, though!!!
Still #27 in Total Credit.

[scruff35]

Yepper, we are definately one awesome crunching team. By the end of the month we will be almost ready to pass the next team. Not bad for only 45 active Seti members.

[UncleBob]

We are a formidable farce!

What kept ya, Boyz

...I'll pull over to let ya'll past
