Indeed it is, and the overclock is full throttle :D Thanks to XMS's hard work and commitment we now have an SX server ready to do some serious damage :) Be prepared for the installation of this baddy next week at the colo at which point we will get all of the new game servers online! Stay tuned!

Pic 1: As you can see, XMS modded the tops of our heatsinks to better fit in the 2u rackmount case, nice work! They new fit perfectly....

Pic 2: The money shot! Here's our 2.4ghz Xeon's successfully being recognized as 3.6ghz Nocona's :D :D :D :D Who can complain with a 1.2ghz overclock on stock cooling w/ a simple u-wire mod? lol! This baddy does super pi 1mb in 30 seconds! :eek:

JIM YOU R0X0R!! :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship: :worship:
 
This new server rocks. Its been priming successfuly all night, so i conclude that the overclock is 100% stable :D

The heatsinks were a BITCH to install. I actually had to chop the tops of them off, and also chop the fans about so they would fit in properly!

All worth it in the end tho :D

The major credit must go to Frag that funded most of this baby, and also to Kemp for supplying an excelent powersupply to feed the juice to this bad boy :D

EDIT: I'll have to take some proper pics of the server before it departs up to london :)

An awsome piece of work. The overclock appears to be really pushing the barriers!

That's an understatement :) I can't remember the last time i've seen something that awesome on such an inexpensive build... w00tage!
 
Particularly awsome for me like in on another planet as my greatest overclock is a Celeron 633 to 950 - I have some way to catch up in every which way.
 
w00t!!

Been waiting for this for some time! I'm proud of our Baby!!

Great work Jim and Fraggles - man thats awesome!! :worship: :worship:

Man once I'm online at home I'm gonna fire th3e SX server straight up. Just got COD2 and its awesome! :D

I gotta get out and buy that!

After losing our COD2 team though I think we may replace that server with DoD:S since more peeps have it.
 
Damn it!

Seriously this game is uber awesome: I can't stress how nice it looks.

When I'm back online at home I'll post up a review with some sweet pics :)
