Limit 1 per household, think that matters any?

Thanks for posting wiretap. Cheapest prices yet for new 63xx CPUs retail.

I have a nostalgic love of the old AMD 6376 CPUs, and the Dell C6145 server for that matter, though I was pretty alone in liking those CPUs two
years ago. One note: That C6145 motherboard is only useful in a C6145 server chassis.

The C6145 chassis is interesting, it's basically 2 1u servers in a 2u platform...

The Opteron 6376 really got shafted in the single core performance department...
