Tyan responded with "they haven't been tested," though the rep I spoke to agreed the microcode should be there. Ball is in your court now. They are confirmed with 2419EE, and "should" with 2419 standard edition.

I knew it! I'm betting they will work and worst case scenario the CPU's name won't be recognized in CPU-Z.
What do you guys think?

[shoota]

So the seller pulled the ebay listing.. I wonder why?

[bluestang]

Well, I'm staring at 48 cores right now

Not a fan of the way they packed them, in an OEM tray stretch wrapped with film onto cardboard. Couple CPUs popped out of slots and were laying on the others, minor scratching, but nothing to worry about.

Oh, and these look brand spanking new, not sure they were ever used>

[endlesszeal]

Are you an active cruncher?

not yet ;-). looking for a good setup that gives most "bang/$" right now.

MOFO!

Just got off the phone with the guy. The SOB's sent them to the scrappers about 2 weeks ago without even letting him know. He just found out about 2 hours ago when he went to get some to pack up to ship for someone else. So he had to refund their money and take the listing off.

Needless to say he was a little upset and so am I. The F****ing scrappers! WTF!!

[bluestang]

There is going to be some serious consumption of Vodka tonight!!!

F it I'm out. Going to the gym and then studying for my test. See you guys tomorrow.

epic ebay fail

[Kayin]

Not sure about that pulled listing. That's awful odd...

Also, wife did not approve funding. However, I still have a pair of dual cores as well as a single 8346HE sitting here I'll send out if people want them.

I haven't committed to selling it yet, but I have a full tested Arima setup w/PSU here as well, if anyone wants to offer me on it. Put it to work crunching, you know.

[anubis]

Any chance we could make threads like this private - to crunchers only...

[bluestang]

Man, I'm feeling horrible now.

In case u need some DDR Reg for the mobo's

And sorry guys can't find any cheap mobo's

[1200W]

Now that is sad.

[shoota]

Well it's safe to say the seller needs to work on their packaging skills.

Supermicro H8DMi-2 and H8DM3-2 motherboards wil also work.

If only we can get these people down on price...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Supermicro-H...item1e6a3c80fb

They declined my $50/ea for all 5 boards.

So do we want to offer on these boards until we get them? They seem to be our best shot right now.

[shoota]

Contacted seller...said lowest price for all 5 would be $100/ea.

Oops didn't see this. I bet if we coordinated an attack and just kept offering like $75/board they would eventually give in.

[bluestang]

Sounds like a plan, I'll offer $75 too.

[shoota]

Alrighty good luck!

[Origin_Unknown]

that packaging :O

[NKrader]

those cpus arent for sale anymore huh?

for cheap that is.
