Yea i got to get in on this. Hope my heatsinks get here faster than its xeons away . Oh whats about the best DC box now. Quad xeon or what that QX6600 looks pretty nice.

The old men need time to get up to proper operating temperature lol

Yup, just dropped a couple Viagra in the ol' reservoir, it should be coming up to speed anytime now......


Congrats to XSTM for today, and all of xtreme also.

The Q6600 is the best bang for the buck unless of course you like pure unadulterated sex appeal then there's another way to go..

If they're cranking points on the farm, I close the door and let them be. I've always been a good host for a party......



luckygriff, yup, that talk was only directed at my machines. Not you or your machines.
Hope you get your parts, in the same place, at the same time. I know how much it suks to have to wait on a critical component.......I had to wait on heatsink material once, now I've got so much of it I could have a shin-etsu, ceramique mainline party!!!
I'm being told by the experts that the Q6600s are the best bang for the buck on DC. I'll be trying that out soon.

Regards,
Bob

yup Q6600 is the way to go, no cheaper way to get a ton of cores quickly, except maybe steal that 80-core monster Intel has cooking up. Now time to find a way to utilize those 80 cores...hmmm

[[XC] riptide]

Dave and his lovely pics... never ceases to get me going.

EDIT: Thats not the box with the 120.3 fan mod?

what if your parents were the marcianos... i went to HS with anthony, and he drove a different car each day out of the week. MEaning he had 5 to rotate though.

MAJORLY fixed up RX-7 -> Range Rover -> Corvette ZR-1 -> Porshe ->Ferrari


Uhhhh... that was at the age of 17!

I dont think even our AARP members can match that.


I went to Bevery Hills High School if anyone is wondering :]


And lets not get into my brothers high school. Just 2 words: OLSEN TWINS.
