A friend gave me a ASUS K8N-DRE - motherboard.
It has a pair of Opterons, as best as I can figure, 2200, 1mb L1 cache. It can take dual core Opterons but seems to be limited to 400 MHz DDR SDRAM, although it will hold an ungodly amount of RAM of that style in 8 slots.
Other than that it has limited expansion slots, 1 x PCI Express x16 1 x Mini PCI 1.
Worth playing with? Anyone have any leftover DDR SDRAM? How about CPU coolers that might fit? Power supply with a 24-pin main power connector?
And what OSs support dual CPUs?
