It works

Everything runs fine with my denmark 170. mainboard recognizes it as dual core opteron. Not overclocking it yet but that coming wil try to push it to the 2.4ghz level. Now waiting on a HD2600 xt 512mb DDR to hit the shelf at newegg or tigerdirect or mwav. The only places i have experience or had friends buy at. As soon as i get the card i will get you some numbers and post

I wouldnt consider going to 2.4ghz "pushing it". If I had a 170 and didnt reach 3.0ghz + (which I run on my opty 165) I would be upset. If your going to push it go to 2700-3000.

I would PM him, chances are he won't see this post due to you digging it out of the archive from 6 months ago
