BTW, I think it only goes in one way and I think it's the end towards the memory.

My manual does show exactly which side to put it on, but I'm guessing it doesn't matter. Either one side or the other.

if looking at the mobo how it would be mounted in the case, it will only fit on the right side.

that is what i was asking you guys you can get them for 41 w/o fan from orbit micro http://store.orbitmicro.com/commerce...=1108142918500
or http://www.3dcool.com/Details.asp?cid=26&id=1337 but they dont currently have them in stock

I got mine up and running, but my HD's crapped out on me (go figure) so I'm running Knoppix while I wait on my income tax check so I can buy a new SATA drive...

Knoppix recognizes all 4 processors :D

Excellent guide, dual lv xeons seem to be the next best bang for the buck smp system, just like dual mps with mobile used to be, and still may be.
Just curious are there any vdrop mods for Xeons boards, PCDL.
Thanks

I've got mine up and running.

I've got it running 3087mhz(205x15) at ~1.6v and the TwinMOS ram running 2-2-2-5(1:1) @ ~3.37v. Been running Prime95 for several hours now, and all is looking well.

I was wondering what happened to your production... you hadn't put up points in some time! http://stats.free-dc.org/new/usersta...ame=IhatemyISP

Are you going to run D2OL on the Xeon rig you got from the D2OL bulk order?

My production there is from my old P4 system, that's DOA at the moment.

I'm just now getting my Xeon rig to the point where I'm comfortable stressing it under full load. I'm burning it in now to make sure it's stable as a rock, and then I'll crank D2OL back up.

I got my Xeons direct from Gabriel via eBay ;)

What cooling?? That should put out around 300+ a day, right?

Just the IWTs.

What heat do these 1.6LVs put out at stock, in watts, and at around 1.5-1.6v @ 3Ghz?

I thinking about getting a couple peltiers and doing some water cooling :D

That will just be sick!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not sure about the usage in watts... it can't be that high at all.

Ya the 2.0Ghz ones are 58watts but can't find anything for the 1.6Ghz ones. Probably around the same though.. Not sure how much extra it add though running them at higher voltage and ghz. I want to get a couple 169w pelts as I could run them off a mean well power supply I already have but couldn't do the 2x226w ones.

Do it the EE way! :rotf:

Power (and heat output) increases linearly with frequency and with the square of the voltage. This means that you should multiply by the frequency difference (if you clocked a 3.0 at 2.0, that's 1.5) and multiply by the voltage difference squared (a 1.3V chip at 1.6V has 1.23 times the voltage or ~1.5 times the heat output).

That should have some great results, but u might have to do the the real vcore mod. PM Jeff about it. I think u might have to put 1.7 or upwards to get these to 4ghz, but I think its possible.

matt9669

Agreed, you might need more than 1.6 (or the actual 1.55 the PC-DL puts out) but the Vdroop and Vcore mods exist, and peltier cooling should be able to handle it :up:

dE4 is modding his board completly 2morrow so ...

He wants ~4Ghz :/

Swiftech 603V/604V >> use the included AS Ceramique or

use some of my Arctic Silver 5.

Is there a higher than normal chance of some electrical conductivity or something, messing things up? Or does Swiftech just prefer Ceramique? I've never used Ceramique before; is it roughly equivalent, in transferring heat, to AS 5?

I also have some Shin Etsu X23-7783D here...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The more I think about it, the more I think I'll use the Shin Etsu. If you have any opinions on this let me know. :)

what can I say, I get anal about these little details.... :D

OPP swears by Ceramique, if that helps.
