That's actually not a Wolfdale. Newegg has it mislabeled. It's a 1600MHz Harpertown.
Wow, that's a bad mislabel.
Here's the info on the chip.

Yes, Wolfdales are LGA775 dual-core Penryn-based chips. Harpertowns are the LGA771 server CPU's.
Okay, my eyes are failing me. At first I thought it said "X5472". This is the 1600MHz Wolfdale that I read about awhile back. It's still socket 771, however.
they're all the same chip, just in how they socket them. Intel only makes 2 chips. Penryn 6mb and Wolfdale 3mb. hehe
Especially when you can do a BSEL mod on a 5400 quad-core.
Actually I'm more interested in this. Nehalem CPU and board.:) Gigabyte 7TESN-RN

Most likely has integrated graphics which for server purposes is about all you need. It's not meant for gaming. If you've ever seen the specs for HP's expensive ProLiant servers, they usually have ATI 32MB integrated graphics. Woo hoo!
what are all these slots on that Nehalem board. PCI e 8x ? (or 4x ?)
What's the purpose of that?
