So all the equiptment I have purchased is slowly making its way online.
Power supplies seem to be the big slow down here. I have 2 on order and one here on the forums I'm looking buying.

I have all 4 of my GTX 275's up and running.
All 5 of my 9600GSO's up and running.

Waiting on power supplies and water fixtures for the 3 9800GX2's.
With any luck, the 9800GX2's will be online by next weekend.

Also looking to get 4 more GX2's from the fire sale! ;)
If so I will be putting some GSO's up for sale to make room for the GX2's! :)

Excellent start man. I am in the same boat with you on the 3.2 GHz Prescott as I have two of them I can't use right now. My DFI board only supports dual-core P4's and later CPUs. However, I have an E6400 Conroe on the way for the DFI board. I should have some decent "D" online late next week and will be buying moar "D" on Nov. 3rd.
 
i see you have been busy. nice!

how 'bout some pics of the farm? some GPU Pr0n ;)
 
Pictures.....The farm is spread out over three locations.
I will see if I can get a couple for you.
 
Lots of new parts here, some not working, just a little frustated today.
 
It's a socket 775 so it should work in any new board, right?
No, not necessarily. Single core Pentiums aren't very well supported in the BIOS of many newer motherboards. I'm having the same problem as you and have been reviewing "CPU supported" lists of many boards over the past couple days. I also have a DFI P35 board and a 3.2GHz Prescott and mine isn't supported either.

One board that will work though is the Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P. These boards also overclock VERY well. Almost all single core P4's are supported along with all the Pentium D's, C2D's and Quads. Oddly enough though is that it may not work for me. I have a 3.2GHz P4 as well but it is a 540J and not on the supported CPU list. However, the 540 is supported and is essentially the same chip except the 540J features the Execute Disable Bit and the 540 doesn't.

EDIT: CPU Support List

EDIT2: Here is my P4 3.2
 
I know, just got my k9a2, it's doa
I'vegot 12 gpu's waiting on 2 dead boards

In addition to that Gigabyte board, you may want to look at the following ASUS boards:

ASUS P5Q Deluxe
ASUS Maximus II Formula

Both of these apparently support our P4 chips according to ASUS's website. I think you are going to be limited to 2 PCIe slots though. I can't find any 3 slot boards.

Edit: You may want to try and find used ones as both of these are more money new than I'm willing to spend on a board for a P4.
