1. Introduction
Hi All!
Thought i'd share one of my recent pickups. A Fujitsu Siemens Celsius 670 Workstation!
I've wanted one of these for a long long time, especially the DF400 motherboard since it supports 4GB of Rambus PC800!. This is going to be a fun project, such hardware back in 2003 cost a fortune!
Specs
Motherboard: IWill DF400-SN
Processors: Dual Xeon 2.4ghz 400FSB 512KB
Memory: 512MB (4x128MB) Samsung PC800 RIMMs
Graphics Card: Radeon 9250SE. Not the original, believe it originally had a Quadro or 3DLabs Card
Audio: Integrated
Hard Disks: Seagate Cheetah 36GB, 15K U160
2. Planned Upgrades!
My Goal is two get two SL79V Gallatin Xeons working in it. It's not officially supported as per Iwill. These chips have a massive 4MB L3 Cache, basically a Pentium 4 Extreme Edition on steroids.
Other upgrades is a better video card, and storage. My planned list of upgrades are below
Processors: Dual Gallatin XeonMP 3.00ghz 400FSB 4MB Cache SL79V
Memory: 4096MB (8x512MB) Eplodia PC800 RIMMs
Graphics Card: Powercolor HD4670 AGP 1GB, HD3850 AGP later on after benchmarking of the 4670
Audio: Terratec DMX 6Fire 24/96
Hard Disks: 120GB Sandisk SSD, 500GB Seagate 7200.12
Storage Controller: Promise SATA300 TX4
