Any X5690 for sale?

Wish to go hex core in this T3500 box.

I'll have a couple of L5640 CPUs for sale in a few days if you're interested.

Thank you. But those CPU are not on the compatibility list for this board/BIOS.

You can also broaden your search to the W3690. It works the same since you're using a single socket board.

I went with the W3690. It's a beast of a chip and unlocked

Good tips. Will look for W3680 and W3690 as well.

Was able to get a used X5687 at a good price. Not a 6 core like I wanted, but it did give a nice boost in performance.
