    so you PM him, toss in MY link, tell him Movieman said to PM him for a pair and it's a done deal..
    If he doesn't respond to the Pm then buy the two from my link..

    So, if he does, $70 for CPUs, $31.50 for the board (after shipping) $36-ish for ram, and $30-ish for heatsinks. total $167.50.

    Aww. Don't think I can legitimately put that in my budget. Still a good deal for people tho

    Sorry to hear that..Most stable system you will ever see.
    Why? No heat.. at 100% load I see 34C in coretemp..
    cheap to run..117w at full load..
    I just bought a Corsair 400w PSU for it..

    If I still had my internship/job I'd be all over it. Lost that in December thanks to the credit crunch and a lack of retirees from the company, so out the door the interns went.

    Yep, I know. I have to pass up deals right now tho. Lack of the job dictates my spending habits right now, plus I have a car repair bill coming that I shouldn't have had but the "warranty terms" say they only pay 7 hours worth of work on the motor replacement. Total bull, it takes like twice that amount of time to do it properly last time I'm every buying anything from those guys

    Will the chipset be able to handle 800FSB ?
    theoretically yes ... but in reality ?

    Maybe ask Tiro , he'll be interested

    I have not read the whole thread so forgive me if this has been asked. How would it compare to an oc'ed Q6600@3.4-3.6? If it is close to the same I may have to find up the parts.

    You sort of have to read thru and learn about "Sammy"
    He has talents well beyond computational power but to answer your question a 2000mhz Sossaman setup is app 50% in terms of daily output in WCG vs a Q6600 at 3600mhz..
    BUT:
    Costs app $170.00 for board,2 cpu's,2 gig of memory and the special heatsinks..
    Draws app 110w at 110% load and gives off essentially no heat..
    Cpu's run at 34C at 100% load on air..
    Oh, and the Board we use orginally was a $430.00 Intel EATX server board that we now buy for $30.00 delivered in the USA..
    Stable as anything you ever saw..

    I'm willing to try, on one condition: someone hook me up with some cheap sammys - MM what happened to that USA fellow on ebay who was trying to flog numerous sammys of for approx USD$40 iirc?

    If I can get a couple 2Ghz sammies for under AUD$75 each, I'll be the guinea pig (if no one else is game)

    I also need to get another board

    na

    having said that, I havent quite finished abusing that mobo just yet
    list of 'to-do' torture:

    1) move PCI slot - yes, i'm gonna solder it onto a diff location - if this works, I'll skip no.2
    2) remove PCI slot entirely, to see if the mobo has survived
