I concur, writing this post on a TigerMP being MP2800-powered for five
weeks.
(very easy to install : I just swapped them with my two xp1800+,
installed the AMD heatsinks for warranty, and didn't change a thing
neither in the 1.02 bios nor a jumper on the mobo)

Though, I had a bit of trouble to obtain a pair of these, they seem
scarse now (four weeks of shipping delay, seems Opteron is favored here) ,
but maybe that's just in Europe...


Hope that helps,

Hi all, I have an S2460 board running two 1800MP CPUs, however the whole
setup makes a lot of noise. Any tips for reducing this? I've had to mount
a couple of cooling fans to keep the air flowing over the CPUs and the power
rail, to see if I can avoid a burnout. Would love to have the rig a bit
more silent though.

Any ideas?<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

Pull out a CPU?

bigger, slower fans
more efficient cpu coolers
silent/quiet psu
