Dorset where else eh? >>> Thats ENGLAND<<<
I cant find that one listed at Ark. The closest is the L5638

From
http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Xeon/Intel-Xeon L5639 - AT80614005076AB.html

Obscure CPUs: Intel Xeon L5639 and X5679
May 01, 2011: Introduced in March 2010, Xeon 5600 family of server processors for dual-socket systems was refreshed in February of this year, bringing the total number of available models to more than 20. Specifications of these microprocessors are well known, and you can find them on our website or in the Intel ARK database. There are three Xeon 5600 CPUs that you won't find on Intel ARK site, though. One of them is a dual-core Xeon X5698, clocked at impressively high for x86 architecture 4.4 GHz. Two other SKUs, virtually unknown to public, are L5639 and X5679.

@Caring1 Hope that sorts out the itch you had about @stinger608 Xeon

Also, the L5639's are notorious for being awesome overclockers. They have a stock clock of 2.13ghz and usually can be pushed to 3.6 and some as high as 3.8ghz. I believe that @Norton still sports one of these impressive hex cores in a system he uses for World Community Grid crunching.
Not sure if he has messed with any overclock so I couldn't tell ya what his would do.

The last one I had I ran at, if I remember right, 3.1 or something close.

They are sweet little hex core Xeon's.

And they can usually be found for under $50!!! :toast:

Mine is an ES and it's happy to run 24/7 at 2.8Ghz. It probably could go a bunch more but it's stable and not too hot there so I don't plan to go any higher. ;)

Just remember that you need pretty decent ram to get a good overclock on a s1366 chip.

You know how much time I have dedicated in the last time to this Machine, especially modifying the PSU:D

That's right 2 in line fans and 20.000rpm,
But I have replaced that fan with that one here: Akasa 2.500Rpm
What a difference between 20.000Rpm and 2.500Rpm:respect::respect::respect:
I bet my Server is one of the most silent in the World:pimp:

Been honest that Fan was Blue:p

I think you should run Cinebench
http://www.maxon.net/products/cinebench/overview.html

it will mean that the 4 P would have to stop crunching for a few minutes though.

btw, .....I just named my hex core

as soon as the challenge finishes it goes in a case. :toast:

This little beastie places # 11 in the world in the Cinebench rankings :peace:

Guess how much that cost to build (UK) ?
£ 325.00 # 11 in the world :clap:

Testing the Akasa 2.500Rpm Fan.
I have thought that the Machine wouldn't turn on, but my thoughts were wrong.IMG-20150604-WA0023.jpeg

Well when I have bought the Server it came with 4 x Xeon E5530 but because it's a 2 Board Server and each Board works separately I can use differents Xeons versión as long as the chips are socket 1366.

So there was no control mechanism in the psu which prevented you from swapping the fans?
Did you try volt regulating the original fans just to slow them down and make them quieter.?

Yes there is a mechanism (Voltage Sensor) and that's why when I have modified the PSU undervolted from 12v to 5v the test has failed, I guess the Server needs at least and minimum 2.000Rpm/2.500Rpm to start up ( I can't confirm that, it's just an Hypothesis)

So in effect you have "tricked" the PSU, the same current is flowing through it but through much slower and consequently quieter fans. I like it. Aaaaaaaaand i saw zip ties :respect:

That could have been a real problem resolving that one.

Sorry about all the questions but this is really rather interesting.

So the new fan assembly plugs directly into the PSU via a 3 pin connector?
Is there any way of monitoring the PSU temps via software, I know server systems are very different from desktop pcs and i was wondering whether it is possible to monitor your PSU temperature? With a mod like that you must be concerned that you may not have adequate cooling for the PSU.

Do the fans suck or blow?

Yes via a 3 pin connector but not a regular one but a connector 3 times smaller that those regular that we find almost in every common 3 fan connector, (did it makes sense what I said? :confused:)

Is there any way of monitoring the PSU temps via software, I know server systems are very different from desktop pcs and i was wondering whether it is possible to monitor your PSU temperature? With a mod like that you must be concerned that you may not have adequate cooling for the PSU.
The last thing I care about is Temperatures, that Psu with the original Fan was running hot and after modified it's running coldest and when i say cold I mean cold:respect::respect::respect:

:slap:

Everyday we learn something new, for me it was a very hard lesson.

The cooler method that I am using is better than the original one, and it keeps the PSU Cooler.:peace:

The Fans Blows Air directly to the psu's components in order to keep it always cool.

I knew that the psu wouldn't fit after modified and that's why have done some cuts:

I did those cuts with a 20€/25€ Dremel, so a cheap one that after 3 minutes while a was cutting this happened:
