Quad socket board communitarian bulk buy

[Rembulan]

Yes sir.



Yes same board but that total is more than most of us paid. I think all told mine was around $500.

I am not lucky I think

[Sparky]

Motherboard $189? Holy cow. We paid a tad under $100 for ours.

[Duh]

Should I create it in the wamps or in the wcg section? It's gonna be edited loads of times so i don't want to annoy anybody..

Go for it , thanks

We might do another buy in the future. in case we happen to make it real the thread would become double useful

I don't know about unlucky but certainly bad timing. our seller was called rakicomputers. maybe you could email him and see what he can do for you.

i vote for me to not be the hub next time

I've been meaning to thank all of you for your patience, and most of all, your trust. This really made me feel part of the team and i had a great time doing it. I think after this week I'm going to have to tune down the crunching. The electricity bill is just way to high now that i'm going back to school. I think i'll just run the quad Anyways, enjoy the boards guys and get them crunching for Team XS!

[Duh]

thank you shoota

thanks for handling it all, shoota. I've done similiar things in the past for other forums and I wouldn't wish that job on anyone it's for the most part thankless and can be a real headache...

but you did a great job with it

[shoota]

Thanks a bunch Rise, means alot to me.

[shoota]

It eats up your time, it can be a real hassle sometimes when life gets in the way, it always involves some additional unforeseen/unaccounted expenses that aren't easily passed on to the group (or sometimes it's just awkward to try to get everyone else to compensate for it, especially if it's due to some mistake or whatever).

Oh, there's always that one guy who sends 5 million PMs and gets worried when you don't respond within 2-4 hours...

I think it's something that we all do once, and then never again, heh.

and you know i was fully expecting all of that and not one of those things happened. the worst thing that happened was five doa boards but the seller paid for the return shipping (i was sweating that one). Rise was the biggest pm'er with a whopping ONE pm!

Shinies.

8347's for $27 each from palm54@charter.net.

Damnit he won't sell any to me?

[Jacka]

How come? On 6th July he said he had 30x8346HE, 96x8346 and >200x8347. :s

[metalop1g]

Sorry, I so not.

huh?

[metalop1g]

huh?

Well "Sorry, I so not." was his answer to my email

[hendermd]

It looks like he is sold out on Ebay, plus he may not ship ouside U.S.

[Jacka]

He shipped them to the UK no problem.

Seems unlikely that he'd sell over 400 CPUs in less than a month.

He had the lowest price, I can see others buying them up for resale with a nice profit.

huh, that's a weird answer. let me email him

[Jacka]

Didn't any of you notice S and D are next to each other on the keyboard? 8-)

[shoota]

Oh geez.. now I feel stupid. Thanks

[Sparky]

Oh geez.. now I feel stupid. Thanks

Heh, same here

[Sparky]

How hot does the chipset get? Is the passive cooler enough or should I strap a fan to it?

I'm getting ready to order the remaining bits and pieces I need, and thought about ordering a fan for the chipset if it needs it.

[Jacka]

I was wondering this too. Not sure how much airflow I'll need over the boards when under water.
