I had to pull of the Dual Quad Core Xeon, which accounted for a bit of crunching, but it is now in production as a SQL server. I have a dual 2.4Ghz Xeon/2GB system (running XP Pro), I've been poking around the IBM site but can't seem to find if that mainboard will support dual or quad cores. It would be interesting to swap out the 2 Xeon 2.4Ghz for dual/quad core Xeons... Any idea how I find out if the board would support dual/quads? It all depends on the model of the system. The Dual Core/Quad Core Xeons in the X3xxx use a LGA775 socket, the X5xxx series use an LGA771 pin array connector while the X7xxx series use the old 604 Micro FCPGA6 socket. You should have a model number that you should be able to find at least which version of the processors you have. You might also try downloading CPUZ as it will tell you what the model of the mother board is installed and what package the processor is. This might be a starting point for an upgrade. It is an IBM Intellistation Z CPUZ says socket 604mPGA IBM mainboard model MS-9121 2.66Ghz Xenon Prestonia 11 Family F Model 2 Stepping 7 Chipset Intel E7505 From what I found, that processor is a 533 MHz FSB processor with a maximum speed of 3.2 GHz. With that pin grid array, those processors don't come in Dual or Quad core. That was before the 3xxx/5xxx/7xxx naming scheme came around which have faster FSB that do have Dual and Quad cores. These also mainly are in the LGA package not the 604mPGA. Not a worth while upgrade. It looks like a Micro Star board used by IBM. http://www.msicomputer.com/product/detail_spe...sp?model=E7505_Master-LS2 It doesn't show dual core support and only takes a CPU up tp 3.06Ghz. With the pair of 2.66Ghz CPUs in there now, I doubt moving to 3.06 would affect it much. I was hoping dual cores would work, that would be a fairly cheap way to double the output with little increase in power consumption. I have found several 2.8Ghz takeout CPUs, in matched sets, for as little as $25 on Ebay. But, unless one of the CPUs fails, I doubt I will be messing with it. Getting another 1GB of ECC RAM was expensive enough.     |

 ... what?  I was just editing a post on us passing the 300,000 result mark, and suddenly I'm here. Must be a bug in the software, never mind. Congrats    [Edit 1 times, last edit by courine at Dec 21, 2008 11:04:37 AM] |

Greetings __in2my.net__-ers! We (team Ukraine) hope to tie (let's call tie a 10-20% difference ok?
---------------------------------------- ) you in the upcoming challenge "race 3". We got some additional tires and fuel (6 quads or so)  grats getting 100kk points and 300k WUs. Impressive!  |
