Re: Dual Xeon Setup - InWin 909/Supressor F51
Sorry, I don't know a lot about the cases, but just quickly (and you may already know!) SM tend to have different mounting holes to standard regardless of EE-ATX, EEB etc etc. They'll tell you they only support their cases. I had to drill / tap new mounting holes to fit a dual E5 system in a Lian Li...

Re: LGA 2011 coolers for Supermicro Xeon E5 ATX motheboards
Sorry for the late reply, was rather busy yesterday. Anyhow, I went for Supermicro because of a need for IPMI and all the remote management. I'm not sure Asus have that sort of thing on their boards, but it is true, Supermicro are the 'cheaper' of this sort of board, Tyan and IBM also do have the re...

Re: LGA 2011 coolers for Supermicro Xeon E5 ATX motheboards
Ah I see, yes, you shouldn't have the issue with the EE-ATX, so you're only left with perhaps the odd stand off and shifting one of the power led cables. Anyway, please see the attached (camera phone quality, but you get the general idea) photo. There's clearance under the heatsinks for RAM without ...

Re: LGA 2011 coolers for Supermicro Xeon E5 ATX motheboards
Evening, Just to let you know, I built a workstation based on the X9DRi-LN4F a few weeks ago. It's got the square mounting brackets and it fits standard heat sinks (I used 2 Prolimatech Megahalems Rev C's). The things which needed adjusting in general: Most of the motherboards with square brackets a...

Re: Mike's final sign-off
Hardly ever comment on the site, but read daily... All hardware choices over many many years have been made due to your detailed testing. All the best for the future, thanks for your work and I hope (with some luck) to be here again next year!
Cheers!
Cheers!

Looks interesting. I've tried getting something simular myself. Wrote a small .bat file which switched the monitors on and off using motion detection from my webcam and the software webcamxp. In theory all this stuff is great, but in practice my motion detection idea used lots of CPU cycles, which p...

Hi! I remember a video like that with one of the low power VIA Epia systems... Can't say I've tried it myself. BUT I've been using a machine which doesn't have a good enough heatsink. It's a Core2Duo and as soon as it hits 90c, it halves it speed to bring it down to an 'ok' temperature of 82c. So fr...

I have sympathy for you, it can be so frustrating! At least Corsair have lifetime warranties. Anyway, the only thing I could think of that'll cause RAM to burn out over a period of time is voltage. What are you running at? I believe it should be 2.1v. The board might be lying and sticking out more j...

Just to let you know, I've never managed to get the CPU fan to slow with speedfan on my P5Q motherboard.. But the case fans do change perfectly. I understand that the BIOs will control it though - and so does the Asus software. But I prefer more control with speedfan. Anyway, here's my solution... D...
