Quad socket board communitarian bulk buy

[pawmadsen]

i got some stuff today now i just have to buy some psu's, and get the exact pin layout of this arima quad board.

16 x 8347 (have had them a while now)

16 retention brackets
16 coolers
64 x 512 mb ram = 32 gb total
2 boards. one is the same as this bulk buy, so i can now test for ppl in europe if its nessesary. the other is a arima dual socket board, because i might use it as a storage server. i have 8 x 1.5 tb disk on a perc 6i raid card, sitting in a overclocked i7 machine atm, i would like to move it to a safer place.

ok, here is a start on the build. i have taken lots of pictures of me installing the cpu's. to try and answer some questions.

i will still buy 4 more boards, if everything works out on this "tryout" board.

i will need some answers on the power supply Duh, if you cn supply me with them, then i can start up this baby and test if everything works.

specs are:
4 x 8347 1,9ghz
16 x 512 mb 400mhz reg ecc (pc2-3200r)
4 retention thingies, modded with a hobbyknife to fit socket 1207
standard backplate, came on the board.
4 cooler master alu heatsinks with fans.

here are the power pictures. i need help with how to wire these correct.

first picture, is it correct ? (i think it is)



second picture, is it correct ? (i think its wrong)


thrid picture, is it correct ? (i think it is)


retention brackets need some trimming, its no bigie, i did it with a doll hobbyknife, takes about 4 minutes each.




here is the cpu locking lever, it works without bending it, but it touches the retention bracket slightly, so i just took this tool and pressed it a bit together.







cpu with heatsinks mounted. (pr0n)
