Yes. You can't stick it in the side that it fits though. Once CPU runs off the left side, one runs off the right. Because of the low power of the CPUs, you can get away with just pushing the 4 pin in the middle of the 8 pin socket. That way, each CPU gets on half of the 4 pin plug. Little bit of a tight fit because of the keying of the socket but it'll fit :D Or you could trim the key on the 4 pin plug, or get a 4 to 8 pin adapter if you don't want to shoehorn or modify the plug.
ur a legend, sparky, thank u muchly! :toast:Quote:

No, i am saying thats about how much you will get.Quote:

Ahhh there's the other three components I don't have, a SAS hdd, a server power supply and the money to buy any or all of it.
The board does not accept SAS hdd unless you buy an adapter. Also, you can use any power supply as long as it has a 8 pin cpu plug or with a 4 to 8 pin cpu adapter.Quote:

All in all the system costs about 160-200 for the board, cpus, memory. You just just need a power supply.. 30-50 and hard drive.. 20-40, $12 for the backplates and $20 for the sinks so in a little less then $300.
No SAS on these boards. I have a SATA drive on the one, and an IDE drive on the other. Just uses a standard 24 pin PSU (preferably with an 8 pin CPU power but as mentioned above there are ways around that ;)). So heck use an old 20GB IDE hard drive and a random PSU and there ya go ;)Quote:

I also have a pair of 2.0Ghz cpu's which are not being used. (+ heatsinks + backplate)
Joy. Everything a guy could need to get one of these running is sitting around in XS folk's spares bins and my total budget runs to $50AUD. :(
How much?Quote:

I've been stewing over that lot, too, but won't have the money any time soon. Grab them if you want them ... just put them to good use, k.
