with all of the fans in my tower, it wont really matter. I dont know much about this processer but it said 2.8 Mhz - 3.06. What does that mean? Does it clock higher on its own or something like that?
I don't understand why people get these systems instead of Lynnfield. I can understand if you were going for a six-core, single socket workstation with 24GB+ of ram, a Quadro 6000+Tesla C2050, plus a dedicated SAS controller and iSCSI adapter or Fiber Channel HBA.
