on a side note, on the samsung if you look at the center of the heat spreader it looks like the .... *shudder* goats... (i cant say the rest) man. anyone notice that?
Yea, same as emerica, i also want to know what's the best board for dual socketted clovers. I terms of performance-stability and also overclokability. Been searching for the last 2 months for the perfect V8 mobo. Just because of my curiousity tho.
Sorry 4 my bad english

A lot of people have done well with the Supermicro X7DAL-E or the Tyan Tempest i5000XT. We've yet to see anyone volt mod the boards/cpus and really go for it. As a result we've been limited to below 400MHz FSB (mainly) due to stock NB voltage of 1.5v (this also feeds the AMB chips on the FB-DIMMs, another possible cause of the low bus speeds), stock CPU Vcore and a Stock RAM chip voltage of 1.8v.
thx dave, think I'm still a idiot in server hw if w/o ur help, u lead me to the fun area :DQuote:

maybe u will see some nice num this weekend.
I'm about to pull those 16cores down on hwbot though it's a very hard job :(
those super talent modules seem to be very nice indeed :D :slobber:
is the system and those benchmarks even really tapping into that 2nd cpu ?
i see obviously cinebench is but what about other benches.
i think 2x quad core zeon just about outa remove the bottleneck for 8800 GTX SLI dont ya suppose ;) hell even 1 8800 should be running full throttle now.
god i wanna see ANY 3dmark results.
come on Vic do some 3dmark 01 or something :)
its too bad its all slowed down by hard drives. man you'd have to have the fastest SCSI drives on the market to make it worth while.
that system makes hard drives feel like my Stewie icon in my sig.
Very nice, Victor. You've shown old man Dave how to overclock a server.:)
DDTUNG:cool:
I'm learning. Made my day when I first heard that Victor was going to work with this combo.Quote:

Very impressive results, especially with those Super Talent/Samsung FB-DIMM's which aren't that expensive for server memory.
