Here's hoping for an unlocked late-cycle SB-E or something on Ivy Q1 2013
They have two versions of this board, the other had more RAM slots and IPMI and all that goodness. So torn on which one I would prefer.
and there's always SuperMicro if you need more memory..768 gig on a couple of these..That's funny even to write..LOLQuote:

Something else I'd like to toss in here.
We tend to take things for granted but should sometimes take a mental step back and think about things.
How lucky are we all that these companies have hired people like Vince and Peter to bring their perspective and expertise to what we are able to purchase.
I mean that, just think about these guys and add in the Macci's, the Sampsa's, and lets not forget FUGGER who have all added to the vast wealth of knowledge we take for granted.
We never see the direct influence they have given but we do see the results in what we are able to buy.
I'd like to thank them, all!

Oh I'm pretty sure Jacob is right..:hrhr:Quote:

humm... SR-X is so tempting I might end up getting one even if all it does is sit on the desk and fold.
Chips are the issue, VERY expensive..Quote:

**edit... sorry I mean AUD, and I just realised, the exchange rate back then was a :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:, now its on a 1-1
The top E5-2687W's are App $1900.00 EACH in the USA..Thats $3800.00 for a pair..Quote:

:shocked::shocked: So thats where my stork went.. Grrrrr :p:
id love to know what the ppd for these monsters is going to be .. I have the asus dual socket board coming and one of these chips for now . Will add the second one in a month or so once i save up for it .
Cant believe im spending this much for non overclockable chips but i cant help but lust after that much power and what it will do on wcg :D
Enjoy them chips and please post numbers quick :D
Cheers and kind regards !
P.S. On a side note.. i know these chips will work in the Rampage IV extreme. Anyone tried yet to see if they can be overclocked past 108 BCLK on that board ?
