    I installed an Opteron 165 on My MSI K8T Neo2-F v1.0 MS-6702E motherboard(Via K8T800 Pro chipset) and I have not only the MS patch, But the AMD X2 driver and I still can't access the 2nd core at all under XP Pro sp2. Bios is 9.2 of course and It is the latest official Bios, There is a 9.3 beta...

    WC vs. SI-120

    I believe You, I do really. I just upped My cpu speed to 2.4GHz and the Temp is now at 42C, Ram is running at 240MHz in zoom2, Not bad for a Via chipset. :) It's too bad I would have liked to post links to images here(I self host), Oh well. A custom icon would be nice too, But I didn't see a...

    WC vs. SI-120

    The original poster used the right word. If that is why You're puzzled. As to WC I believe Swiftech is very good, But I can afford air cooling and so XP-120 heatsinks do Ok, The cpu temp right now on My overclocked 3200+ 90nm cpu is 37C right now. Of course I have the swamp cooler on right now...

    WC vs. SI-120

    Actually He used the right word, Since descent means to go down or to dive(airplane vs submarine). Me I have 3 XP-120 heatsinks and the two that were and are for My 2nd PC showed good results on the Bios and yeah that's at idle alright. I may replace one with an SI-120 or buy two as one of...

    What's the disadvantage of getting an Opteron server board?

    Well I was under the impression that ECC was required, Oh well. But of course having It doesn't hurt though.

    What's the disadvantage of getting an Opteron server board?

    Actually ECC is required and isn't optional, If You do buy a dual opteron cpu motherboard, Spare Yourself a hassle with the ram and the psu, Get what I have, It's good stuff and It likes Opterons.

    What's the disadvantage of getting an Opteron server board?

    What's the disadvantage of getting an Opteron server board?

    One of the disadvantages of a dual opteron motherboard is the cost of the cpus, The ram and having a good enough power supply, I should know as I have all that in My PC zoom3 which runs 24/7 in an overclocked state with no problems.
