So I got my hands on 2 socket F (1207) server boards. One is an ASUS KFSN4-FRE/SAS 2p board and the other is the Arima 4p (google) board. I have 4x Opteron Quad Core 8378 2.4GHz OS8378WAL4DGI for the Arima and 2x Opteron Quad-Core 2358 SE 2.4GHz OS2358YAL4BGH for the ASUS. I am not sure which I am going to use yet but one of them will be framed and hung on my wall above my desk. I have only run the ASUS so far since I am lacking enough heatsinks to run all 4 CPU's on the Arima. Maybe tonight I'll run the Arima with 1 or 2 CPU's just to see what happens. I am waiting on my new PSU and 4 2.5" 36 GB 10K RPM SAS drives (Hopefully will setup in RAID 0) to start finallizing my build but here are a few pictures to satisfy the curious. The DVD ROM drive and the heatsinks are covered in Farbon Ciber. :cool:

Here is the link to my gallery.

I'll keep this gallery updated with all my pictures of the build.

Update: I tried the Arima Board with 1 and 2 processors with no luck. I was almost able to boot into Windows using a HDD with an installation already on it but I got an ACPI or AHCI error. I was not able to enter the bios at all to change it. I tried but it would freeze the few times I was able to hit the delete key at the right time between the flickering "OBEY" logo. Anybody have a clue as to what may be the problem?
