Correct Correct, and if all the chips and dimms work on top of everything else I got I could be into these for very minimal costs....and I'll be trouble shooting them Tuesday next week and testing and what not. I have built many gaming and workstations in the past but these epyc chips are next...

Well it wasn't free I have to pay for the scrap and high value scrap gets a phone call to me prior to any commitments. Basically when I resell or scrap "scrap" i usually aim to make at least 30-50% profit on top of costs. I did count a total of 100+ ddr5 16 modules at 4800mhz which seems like...

I can let you know what you decide....I'm currently debating about giving the 7 gamers 1 CPU Linus video a try with one of these and see how it goes. Lol

Yes I'm not entirely sure what to do with them for I just know I have so many computers around the house doing different things and thought it would be cool to consolidate and have a closet server lol. Yea once I verify they are functional I'll have to figure outwhat to do with them...I'll be...

So I just bought a super micro MBD-H13SSL-N and hoping it will be a good fit. There really isn't a lot of board providers I'm seeing for these and was also leaning towards a tyan board but couldn't find much information about them on Google.

That is fairly common practice in a lot of places and a lot of these big system builders are selling $100 million plus systems and it is cheaper for them to scrap one rack and build new over refurbish and requalify the rack especially since there are often financial penalties for late systems...

Touche, I have had scrap go missing from my bins in several locations from bin diving employees or came across scrap that wasn't listed on the scrap sheets that was placed there by people hoping to pick them up after hours, but luckily most site I request my bins be located in the shipping and...

Yea I believe they are all fine tbh I have had other CPUs come through from mishandling and only had a few be dead, it is crazy the amount of e waste companies are willing to generate though. But in any case I'll test these keep one for myself and probably resell the remaining ones. My only hope...

My limited understanding is they were insured and paid out for the systems being the shipping on site was the one to drop the system....and instead of shipping these out elsewhere my bin was the cheaper option. Im not sure if the CPUs are all good I mean the motherboards were bent up but the...

They were in a system that fell off a truck during loading and they then come over to me as scrap.

That's interesting I currently I have an ae-9 sound card and I'd be hopeful that would work. My goal is like I said is to try to consolidate all my machines down into one with minimal compatibility issues of possible. I already imagine I'll be needed to also add a USB hub as well

I have a few Genoa 9654 CPUs and am trying to determine what to do with them and also figure out how compatible they are with windows. I'm kinda thinking about building a centralized system to handle my 3d modeling and hosting via VM's, which would replace 3 standalone systems I have, but I also...

Is there any post issues with the 9654 on windows when utilizing a 4090? I recently got a bunch of these Genoa chips and was looking at parting out my current rig and perhaps move into an EPYC setup, but I seen Linus had a post issue when trying to use a 4090 and I also read that someone else...
