Finally getting around to a lab cleanout. Shipping to CAN/US included
Xeon 8124M Server Timestamps - $750 USD / $980 CAD SHIPPED (Case, PSU, and feline PM not included)
  • Intel Xeon Platinum 8124m 18c / 36t @ 3.0GHz (Xeon Platinum 8124M - Intel - WikiChip)
  • 96 GB DDR4-2666 Low Profile ECC RDIMM Hexa-channel RAM (6x16gb)
  • Asrock Rack EPC621D8A motherboard
  • Noctua LGA3647 headsink w/ 2x 140mm fans
  • Used as a testbed for AI workloads and as an NVMe NAS (large number of PCIe Lanes, but cheaper than EPYC)
  • Pulled from an AWS C5 system (processor is an AWS OEM, off-roadmap SKU) and updated with latest microcode
  • Works well with a 750W Seasonic Focus (not included since it’s cheaper to just buy it locally)
  • Works well with 40G/100G Networking & Intel DC SSDs
  • Tested with a V100, A10 and 3090 (in theory should support up to A100 also)
  • Will be shipped as individual parts to prevent damage so grab some thermal paste locally if you don’t have any on hand
SOLD 2x 4TB Intel P4510 DC SSDs - U.2 PCIe 3.0
  • Virtually unused (~6TB written vs ~7300TB Endurance)
  • FW updated to latest version (Doesn’t have the same interrupt bug as the P4500 which causes them to drop out when used in RAID)
  • Confirmed works with both the U.2 carrier cards and expansion cards below
Mellanox SX6036 36-port 40G Switch and Transceivers - $180 USD / 240 CAD SHIPPED Timestamps
  • Includes 6x 40G LR4 Transceivers and 1x 4ft OS2 fibre cable
  • Short depth version, rack ears and rails not included (I just put it on a 1U shelf)

Linkreal dual-port U.2 NVMe for PCIe x8(x4x4) carrier card - 60 USD / 66 CAD SHIPPED Timestamps
