00:00:00.799 --> 00:00:06.759
got some other samples in the mail today that I think might be interesting or

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:11.440
they might not it depends whether I can get a compatible board or not now

00:00:08.599 --> 00:00:16.400
cameraman don't get too close yet but I want you to guess who the manufacturer

00:00:13.880 --> 00:00:21.600
of this processor is okay so I'm going to show you the top and I'm going to

00:00:18.279 --> 00:00:24.960
show you the bottom and if you guessed

00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:30.199
Intel you're wrong because these are

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:33.800
actually AMD opteron C32 socket chips so

00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:35.360
they look just like an lga775 chip but

00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:41.200
they have a completely different number of pins on the bottom and these are

00:00:38.800 --> 00:00:45.960
these ones in particular are quad cores but these are available in quad core and

00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:48.680
six core configurations even though they're these little tiny chips see they

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:52.520
came in green boxes that's how you should have known uh that they were AMD

00:00:51.559 --> 00:00:57.239
anyway I'm just going to go ahead and put that back in there but these are

00:00:54.600 --> 00:01:01.760
actually compatible with up to two-way motherboards so that means you can

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:06.040
actually throw two of their six core processors which are actually only

00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:11.280
around I think $300 to $400 for the entry-level six core ones into a dual

00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:17.200
socket motherboard and you can make one heck of a workstation for a a pretty

00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:19.080
good value with 12 physical cores so uh

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:22.040
this is a pretty neat one and whether or not I'm able to do anything with this

00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:26.320
will depend on whether I can get my hands on a board or not cuz I can't find

00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:32.040
anything yet but the big difference between this and their previous generation op Rons is these do support

00:01:29.320 --> 00:01:37.119
DDR three so that's a that's a new optron thing and uh yeah so they are

00:01:34.360 --> 00:01:43.600
two-way socket compatible also they're just crazily inexpensive given that they

00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:43.600
brand new updraw Chips
