    12GB FBDIMM
    Kingston HyperX SSD w/ Apache2

    To:
    Asus Rampage IV Extreme w/ 3960X CPU

    The two bottom XServers, one was a spare in case of hardware failure, I would just move the drives.
    Bottom of the rack is fiber switch, above that is rack mount UPS
    The IBM machines are for FTP and file backups and email
    The other two Xserves are now retired, one was a mail server and the other was Picto web server.
    On the top is filemaker pro/file storage before it gets archived.

    Barely visible on the right is the new 4u rack mount server for XS.

    Queen - Another Apple bites the dust

    EDIT; This is a case of 'a small step for Charlie, a huge step for XS', stability and response seems much better!

    So...

    ASUS Rampage IV Extreme is an extreme overclocking board.
    The CPU has an unlocked multiplier.
    I don't see the cascade. I'm confused

    The forum speed has been moving much better than in the past on my end, OR if a modification was made to the site, the performance would seem to be improved only temporarily and then gradually degrade over time again.
