    Default WTB: socket 771 Xeon quad cores (x2)

    I am getting my new Skulltrail board within the next week or so, and looking for some procs in the cheaper price range. I got a deal on the board, and I don't want to HAVE to spend an arm and a leg on the procs and RAM. I need 2 IDENTICAL QUAD CORE CPUs. Either if you have some lying around (which if you did you should be hurt anyways for not using them) or you find great deals on them. Please post and help a fellow modder out. Thank you very much.

    Make sure you get ones that are compatible with skulltrail. It would suck to get two expensive CPUs, only to find out that they aren't compatible with your setup.

    Oh yea, of course. Whoever has them (member or site) there would be questions and research put in before purchase.

    I wish someone would make a board like this, except for AMD...but sorry not intels laying around.
    It's like JFK announcing the moon mission. He had no expertise in space travel, and no way of knowing if it would work. He just announced "we're going to the moon" and then they made it happen because everyone was on the same page and working towards the same goal. If he had said "well, let's get some people in space, and we'll see how far out we can get, and if I find someone to make a rocket strong enough, we could possibly approach the moon's orbit and maybe land" it wouldn't have happened.

    They do have loads of boards for AMDs with dual or (there is one board I saw a couple of days ago with) quad sockets. And if you get the CPU add in riser card from Tyan, you can put 8 procs in your rig.That would be nuts. Just think. 32 cores. Omnomnom.

    Tyan makes a few quad CPU boards for AMD. Just imagine filling all of those DDR2 slots with 2GB sticks
