    It was $19 or if you bought 5 it was $9.99
    I made some calls to them and told them if they could get more I knew people that would buy them. Seems like they listened so my thinking is grab an extra board for this price and tuck it away in case you have one die.

    yes, but I'd get the 2000's if possible and if you see a 2167 being sold PM me, call me, wake me up, toss a grenade at the front door but just let me know!

    In the other thread I believe Bail said these would workIntel Xeon Dual Core 2GHz/667 MHz 2MB SL8WT FCPGA SCKT. My only issue is I would need 3-4 of these to equal what my 920 is producing

    Yup, and thats the deal to buy, got a bunch from him, shipped fast and properly packed. That is a scheap as you'll find them.
    Agreed on your last statement, really a mistake to build a bunch, but one is nice or they also make for a very decent desktop for daily work but you do need a EATX case for them..
    As I mentioned earlier, I have one in a Lian Li PC62B and it's a very nice little rig.

    Backplate is to mount the heatsinks to.

    case, well, it is EATX, so just use cardboard, or an open bench... or what I recently did was chop up an old ATX case to allow the EATX board to fit

    Hmm... $180 per node is just so cheap for 4 cores, I really can't resist. I still don't see how an i7 is more cost effective for large crunch, I think I'm going to go through with my plans to put 16 sammy rigs together at some point.

    I think we're pretty much stuck with a 167 x 12.
    (looks at the purdy 2167 sammy) or 13..

    at 100% load: 69C without fans, 34C with a cheap 80mm fan screwed into the fins on the heatsink.
