You received something new, but I'm still figuring out what it is.
You received something new, but I'm still figuring out what it is.
I acquired a few vintage motherboards, GPUs, fans, and more from a local second-hand market. One standout piece was a dual-socket motherboard paired with a complete compaq server rack. What caught my attention were the large copper blocks above the chips that helped with passive cooling. I reached out hoping someone could identify the board and estimate its capabilities. I included photos, but if you need clearer images or shots from various angles, I’m happy to assist. I’m just eager to learn more about this board.
Curious about your origin? It seems this chip comes from Costa Rica, which isn’t easy to verify online. Fascinating!
Several Intel processors originated from Costa Rica during that period. Production is expected to resume there again (https://www.guru3d.com/news-story/intel-...-14nm.html).
It could seem simple, but if it functions, would you be able to set up an MC server on it?
