    Elpida Memory Part Number Decode

    I think the "L" stands for Load reduced ECC and "B" stands for 1.5v plus according to this Intel document (Link) it has a Density per Die of 4Gb and x4 width so those may either correspond to the two digits "67" or the 4Gb die density to the "J" Andrew

    Where to buy Ampere Altra CPUs?

    The cheapest barebones I have seen has been for a Gigabyte E252-P30 (CTO option) with the lowest spec Ampere Altra Q32-17 Processor and 8GB RAM with no storage at £4k in the UK and around $4.6k in the US - I've also kept an eye out for the old ThunderX2 motherboards as ThunderX2 procs are...

    Arctic P8 or other consumer fan for 2U Supermicro chassis?

    Numbers : Artic F8's push quite a bit more air (31 CFM/ 52.7 m³/h) than P8's (23.4 CFM / 40.3 m³/h) and for comparison the Noctua NF-A8 PWM pushes (32 CFM / 55.5 m³/h ) but these are all way off the SM FAN-0094L4 (90.3 CFM/153.4 m³/h) However : as Markess pointed out these cases were specified...

    Google Cloud Adds Ampere Altra with new Tau T2A Instances
