| 299791 | 2004-12-06 01:37:00 | New: Launched the two versions, Intel and AMD Intel is now 8x 3.6 Xeon = 28.8GHz AMD is 8x Opteron 2.4 = 19.2GHz Methinks the opteron will whip ass :D Price of Xeon version (8 CPU) is now $27,990. 4 CPU version is the same price. AMD equivalent is same price as Intel (but better :p) |

Very nice rig george, but a shame to think that 5 years from now that something similar will be on trademe for 200 bucks. Still have a pcworld ad from yonks ago talking about a 486 powerhouse for $20,000 odd whoever bougt one of those must still be paying it off and feeling slightly cheesed that he didn't understand moore's law |

| 299795 | 2004-12-06 08:05:00 | thats insane, massive amount of power :p but do all these 4 cpu's work as one? they would work all seperatly like a dual cpu board wouldnt they? | Prescott (11) | ||
| 299796 | 2004-12-06 09:42:00 | All 8 Prescott... Unless you're looking at the old version :p:D. It's just like a dual cpu, but 8 not 2. Cheers |

| 299797 | 2004-12-06 09:44:00 | so there is one motherboard with 8 cpu sockets , is it ATX , must be a pretty tight fit - 8 heatsinks side by side , think about the noise | noone (22) | ||

It's not actually seriously on sale Jen. I would not have made the post if it was. For one, I have no skill or experience when it comes to uber-high power server systems, and couldn't build it. For another, I was just shopping around random places on google NZ, I'm not even signed up with the supplier of 8-cpu boards, or 500GB "hyperdrives". So for anyone interested in it: Sorry mate, it's not for sale |
