DAMN that LV 5420 is making me salivate for a DP setup.

Funny thing is that just 4GB of FB-DIMM will probably consume more power that 2 of those CPUs.

Thats the only thing holding me back for seriously thinking about it. (I did hear a roumor of 1.5v fb-dimms from Micron, who knows if that would help and how much...)

All of those are making me want a DP setup :(/:D I don't know if I should spring for it though...

I also heard about the 1.5v FB-DIMMs from Micron. Hopefully they're DDR2-800...

I was shocked to see the CPU cooler than the NB.

Hmm...that's low. Can you recall the stock voltage on the model you had?

What software do you use to monitor the CPU temp.? CoreTemp doesn't work with a Yorkfield. :(

Those X5450's and X5460's look interesting..
Better than the top one..1333FSB and 9 and 9.5 multi's
Those you can play with using the 800FBDimms..:devil:

Dual X5450's + 9800GTX = mwhahahahaha :eek:

Yessss, it'll be my next cpu :)

1.125v on the DX38BT.

Temp from bios.

When I saw this "L5420, Harpertown (aka 4 cores), 2.5Ghz, 1333FSB, TDP 50W, $380", my wife grab my &$^# and asked "mmmm, been looking :shocked: at p{r}on again?" LOL!

There is lots of talk about High End Workstation versions of the Server Boards that will use plain of DDR2 and DDR2 Reg/ECC. No way you'd want too much Ram without something to regulate it or do error checks to check its integraty. At least that's the way I learned it many years ago.

There was a lot of talk at IDF about dumping FB-DIMMs...

Let's hope Intel does release something (non-FBDIMMs) this year unlike... <cough>roadmapper<cough> :D
I want to OC that DP!

ASUS Blitz Extreme - 1.224 - 3GHz

That might explain the higher in-windows temps. :confused:

this processor line-up is simlpy awesome, I just wonder why there is no 2,4/2.0ghz 1600mhz fsb part. Those high fsb parts completely rape k10 in everything :D (so why not release more of them?)

Quote:

4GHz Yorkfield Intel displayed were only phase change possible and even then not stable about two weeks back. So not much to go off.

I am sure as hell there were already some AC/WC 4ghz yorkfields.. I don't expect the air overclock to be lower than current g0, it was already shown that they perform great under LN2, maybe even better than current core 2 duo.

With such a high FSB, Intel will have to go back to X.5 Multipliers. The first time I heard of 1600MHz FSB, it was for a 3.2GHz Model. That might be the last FSB anyway since Intel will go to Common System Interface next year. One IBM guy said it will start at 2GHz. Oh, its Bitwidth will make it about the same as HT3.0 at 4GHz but that's only rumor.

SkullTrail is an unlocked 5300VXN chipset, hopefully more boards will be unlocked... :D

My main Grrr about FBDIMM is that I can't replace it whenver I want ;) I can get DDR2 anywhere, but FBDIMM.. only a local Supermicro distro (read: wallet-grabber)

Then I might just have simpler needs and a that 2.5GHz Quad Core even at stock would be nice. I have Zero need to two Xeons.

What's he mean by replacing them any time he wants? Is it that much of an inconvenience to order new ones from newegg? And RAM isn't something you swap out all the time.

I live in Serbia, ordering from NewEgg or Mercateo.de is not something I can do any day ;) FBDIMMs are not found everywhere, and they can't be sold here, so I gotta be picky. DDR2 on the other hand is a totally different story.
I don't swap it every day, but if I do decide to swap it... read above.
Speed is a nice bonus of non-FBDIMMs, though ;)

And I actually do need many cores at work.

Ah, now that is a reasonable explanation ;)
