Getting it is a problem though. I have tried to get this stuff (at least over here) for a while now with no luck :)

this has been the easist build of any dual socket system for me (though fitting the hsf adapters to the mobo pan was the most time consuming task). lol, everest can't recognize the cpus. i'll have to get a newer copy...

Very impressive MO. Of course I am my unsual envy green...sigh. But I do have one inquiry/concern...how does the system do with Windows Solitaire. You know that is really a true benchmark...talker. :) :)
