    I'm going to need more outlets soon as my surge protector is filled to the max. Don't worry though, the power consumption for my system, sossaman, router, modem, printer and monitor is only 280W when I am crunching on both systems .

    Pics are added for justice. Sossaman needs more wire management...

    I think I might add another sossaman to the other side as well and maybe I might used some pico PSUs to save one some space...time will tell.
    Is that an Ikea Pax???

    I kid you not, that's what I have my 2 Sossamans in also. It's absolutely perfect size for the board.

    Sammy2 and the parts I had left over for Sammy3 are now crossing the globe to find new homes, because I'm a generous legend

    Truer than you think.
    I met gongo a while back.
    My impressions that night were of a very smart, well spoken guy with a good heart. I won't go into details but I always ask myself one question when you think about an individual: Would I feel comfortable leaving my kids in that persons care?
    Not a doubt at all when I think of him.

    Just so people know - I have one of my Sossaman systems for sale (Fold3 in my sig). Dual 2GHz Sossamans, heatsinks, 2x512MB ECC DDR2-400 memory, Intel SE7520BB2 motherboard - $165 + shipping.

    I'm not bent on selling this, so I'm not looking to play with pricing too much. If no interest then it'll continue keeping my other Sossaman rig company

    Dang Dave how'd you pull that off? Those CPUs usually run much higher than that, like $40 a piece

    Leave it up to you to find the deals

    Huh, It said 130 + shipping for all seven chips in the tittle. 138 / 7 = ~ 20 per chip.

    The wording is pretty ambiguous, I'd say. If you contact the seller and they say it's for all seven then that's a hell of a deal ... but that's also the price I've seen a bunch going for each.
