I'm looking for parts for that, as the recommended intel heatsink is not fit for purpose, (passive copper )... it needs an Active copper heatpipe + fan, and I've only got enough ram for 1 cpu currently. I do however have another similar Dual server board with chassis, currently its also sporting a single E5520 cpu. Cpu's like these are cheap on ebay (like <Â20) If you ever wanted to go do this route I'd be happy to invite you over for a coffee and give you an intro and a box of parts to get you started. the CPS got a bad rap due to there chipsets overheating - nothing a Â5 fan from mapin wont fix! Its well worth the effort - I've got 3 Enterprise grade machines here build from ebay server parts and leftovers. for a faction of the price of a single off the shelf workstation. yes the AAHD2-HY is for sale, its a full AMD MB/CPU/Ram/heatsink bundle. - i just stripped it out of a fanboy Corsair case thats now housing the S5500U motherboard. I think is an A4 chip with integrated radeon GFX. I did a test install of win10 without issues to check it worked. > > -- > The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG > https://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list > FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG https://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
