just to save everyone and the original poster some of their time ... he's looking specifically for a matched set (aka same sl number) p3 tualatin 1.4 Ghz cpu's. these are not coppermines nor are they p4. it is a socket 370 board and cannot support coppermine cpu's as they require higher...

count me in...

the nvidia forum pic does have neck spires what are you talking about again? not saying I believe this is actually a real working card just that the pic they posted is a dx11 render. for the most part the fact that there are 2 lighted mice in the picture and several bits of other systems...

oh and forgot... your title says "SGI" these are definately not Silicon Graphics hardware.

not to threadcap or sabotage your sale but... anyone looking to buy one of these had better be aware of the limitations first. in order to rack them in a standard rack you need 2 of them back to back and rack rails attached to both. the front rack ears and shell are too weak to rack a single...

the problem with your argument is it's based on some fairly wrong assumptions. 1. physx is getting next to no support whatsoever. 2. physx enabled titles whether they be gpu accelerated or just have physx period number in the single digits. 3. of those titles only 2 are of any interest to...

i have to ask ... why are either of you guys bothering with these ancient systems? pentium pro servers, while usable for small projects or to maintain some legacy apps, are not something you try to max out, especially if it costs you more than $10 to do so. adding ram to one to get 1 GB...

and on these fine points... under an open agreement you get charged whatever your reseller thinks he can get away with charging you. there is no set price other than what you and your reseller agree to above the minimum (which i can't tell exactly what that is due to nda but... it's somehwere...

wow coupla thoughts and then i'm done trying to convince you guys that you're being stupid... first off... never meant to infer the licensing per processor isn't based per socket, was saying PRICING was based per workload, damn editing i did took out the distinction sorry about that. was...

and if you'd read a bit further or investigate a bit more that processor license is per workload not socket, and it makes no sense at all to go that way as it ends up being far more expensive than cal licenses per user. there is a loophole in the per person cal that allows you to buy your...

the ability to cluster is dependant on your operating system. clustering only allows you to load share the network tasks and a few built in apps in the distros. it is for server task distribution, and load balancing not application acceleration. the applications in the different clustering...

hpc distributed computing is still all about the application not the os. the os is just there to provide uptime and availability in a cluster. it doesn't do any load balancing other than network and domain related tasks. the distributed rendering is still all in the app, the distributed...

licensing is per cal not cpu, unless your talking enterprise version vs. standard inital cost. what is most important is assesing your needs and available resources and targeting what goes where based on that. he may be fine with a domain controller w/ sql running on it on a single quad...

my experience with antec supplies is that no it isn't going to work with that vid card. had the 550 modular cabled one a while back and it failed to boot 50% of the time with my x1900xtx and socket 939 x2 4800+ with a miserly 2 Gb of ram and 3 drives. it croaked my motherboard in a week while...

the answer is realy tied to your database size, the types of queries that are typical, amount of transactions, type of connection to the database for the majority of people hitting it (i.e. lan, wan, internet) etc... for example if it's a database for a 200-500 person office mostly lan based...

short answer is yes it's possible, not no. long answer is only under certain apps that can distribute the workload across networked machines. clustering is only one method and it's geared for server availability, not workload distribution. workload distribution is dependant on the application...

the reason why you won't see a bad review is that tyan boards tend to fail in the 6 month time frame and a review is only after having the board around 2 weeks plus not many reviews out there for server products especially in the 4 socket space. tyan makes a good board once in a while and...

you're also going to want a different power supply. antec is notoriously crappy and underperforming for the money. and i don't have any experience with the newer socket f opterons but i always thought the minimum ram was 2 sticks one in each ram bank and the opteron could work in single...

the issue is there are a lot of bogus or illegal website operators out there who like using hosting services. this is just their way of having a legal way of shutting down such websites immediately if they have to without worrying about contract limitations and being sued for doing so.

unless you get extremely specific about resizing the images to specific width and height values, on every usage of them, they will get mangled. also you need to specify exactly in pixels each image's start height and left position. it takes this level of a pain to get it to look right in ie...

start at the bottom and build up if you have heavy stuff and no support rails for the back. just put some pennies on the outside edges of the top of the previous topmost case and build up using the pennies as load bearing transfers from case to case as you build up. secondly rails are...

yeah id say go for the asus board over the abit one as well. i have a dead at8 32x that just died on it's own accord. it always had issues also with the sata ports tied to the uli controller onboard. worst mistake was the uli substitute to handle sata raid because of slow sata on the ati...

wow another frys customer go figure

more like sea... ahem k-mar... ahem cough cough well i don't have an nda so i'll just come out and say sears.

what mobo to get depends on what you're going to do with the system more than what may be cheaper. as far as ram goes... look to the major manufacturers like corsair and kingston etc... avoid pqi and samsung is not something normally recommended for ram in desktop systems but in ecc registered...

quad monitors means either a slower quadro or a crossfire 3870 derivitive. personally i'd go with the dual 3870 option as it also allows you to get an intel chipset mobo.

my real recommendation is to buy a dell or hp/compaq server secondhand that still has some support left on it.

sorry but if you're here asking these types of questions you are in way over your head and need to hire out someone. it is possible to do what you ask but you really need to know what you're doing and purchase based on a plan of upcoming hardware and upcoming business needs. that plan will...

it will work at the load you are stating but you might be better off selling the mobo and cpu's and when fry's has a sale on a new board / cpu combo take the money and put it towards that and 2 GB of ddr2 ram. something that old is just going to be a one trick pony and not that great at that...

sounds a lot like the extra ram is not being recognized at all or worse causing timing issues for the whole ram bank. pull the extra ram you got out and see if it boots / operates faster. if it will work faster with only 512 you'll know where the issue lies. another thing may be the hard...

coupla things ... if you do drill make sure to clean all the shavings away thouroughly and file the area around the hole drilled to remove any burrs that may be left sticking up or mashed against the holes edge. as far as tapping if you go that route then you will want machine threads and...

none other than inter cpu communication, as the memory will still be 800. the advavntage is only for intel's marketing dept. to claim a faster frontside bus. for a consumer the system will benchmark the same except for heavy (more than 4 core) multithreaded apps that rely on data in the other...

my bad on that i kept thinking n-force pro chipset derivitives and forgot that they never released it for intel cpus only the desktop variants. however it should be fairly soon that we see a workstation version for intel from nvidia especially with nehalem around the corner and amd banging away...

but that string can be easily edited to reflect the language you need and not all drivers are even written to take advantage of multi language versions. those that don't simply just install no matter what. most drivers do not have croatian or turkish language options for instance, but windows...

i usually avoid sennheiser and sony headphones due to the over bassiness of the response curve on them. headphones have a natural ability to make great point source monitors (they do really well at stereo field and phase coherency) due to being single drivers equally distant from your ears. the...

and also... i run dos/win 3.11/win 98 under vmware for stuff like doom and win quake on a socket 939 x2 4800+ and in quake 3 i could probably get that same fps you have only at 1024x768 with all software under linux :) there isn't much reason to stick with an old system other than to keep the...

one thing... it's a minor point but something you should seriously consider, do not jbod those 2 320 GB drives into one 640 GB. leave them as 2 seperate drives, far more stable and if the built in raid controller or mobo goes out you'll still be able to get your data off them on a regular...

watch out for the connector placing on the skulltrail and your particular case as well as power supply positioning and the length of the cables on it. just because you have an e-atx mobo and e-atx case doesn't mean you are going to get everything to fit easily. also some e-atx cases are only...

it's the power supply.... it went and took out cpu1 cpu0 is probably hosed as well just not completely dead and the mobo circuit from the atx connector through the power regulators have an issue somewhere along the way as well most likely. I had 5 of these same systems from penguin...

I am also in the dark by other region.... dell.com has the drivers for your model. and region of win xp / server 2003 has nothing to do with drivers for win xp / server 2003 as they are region agnostic. only problem would be with driver applets that go with the drivers such as wi fi or vid...
