I just wanted to clarify the only reason why I'm sad is that I can't even get speeds a 30th of those where I live in the UK
I am very much looking forward to moving to somewhere that has much faster internet!!
Well I've saved a few things to put up here so, here goes

These where for my SR-2 but having just noticed that they are 4Gb sticks and I thought they where 2Gb sticks... I'm going to hang my head in shame....

Another upgrade for one of my crunchers and for my Dell R620 server.. Sadly I need to get a heatsink for it, as it's only a single CPU setup, but my very awesome mate
@TheMadDutchDude has sorted me out with a pair, so

Always need to test with CB

Thankfully the CPUs both work, I am looking forward to testing them together whenever that might be
Here's a few bits from a friend who knows I have a big problem with not being able to throw things out, so he gives it to me instead!
Thank you

These are for some upgrades for my R730 server, I currently have two but they are both only single CPU setups and only have two sticks of RAM in, since it's DDR4, it's still kinda pricey... They both had quad core Xeon's (E5-2628 V3) and 32Gb (2 x 16Gb) so I thought why not, lets make them a little more beefier
But I noticed that I bought the wrong CPUs as these are 8C 8T models, I was a little gutted... These might be getting taken back by the seller for me, or if not, I'll sell them on. They where fairly well priced, I thought they where a slightly different model, so numpty here needs to have a better look at things lol

I just had to do a CB run

Here's another upgrade for the R620 server, 8 sticks of DDR3, so a total of 64Gb... Completely overkill and I'll never need it but what's wrong with having a bit of overkill??......

As both of my Z77 and Z97 systems, where only 8Gb RAM, I thought I'd like to make them 32Gb as I thought 16Gb was so last year, I thought what the hell

I had some fun with the RAM since my Z77 didn't seem to like the 32Gb and came back with an error in MemTest, actually a lot of errors...
I tried them in the Z97 and tested each stick individually with Memtest for at least two passes and they came back with no errors.. Then I tried all 4 together and set just the XMP, then ran again another two passes and that was that... Worked fine.. They also suggested I use RamcheckLX rather than Memtest, but I'm not sure I have the cash for a RamcheckLX .... lol
And last but certainly not least....

Oh and here's one more thing... Well, technically two I guess....

But I'll ask this... What's better than 2 12C 24T CPUs?.......
View attachment 132825
Well obviously 4 12C 24T CPU's !!
My good friend
@TheMadDutchDude helps me with the crazy %$"^%"$ in me, so at least two of these will be being sent over to the UK at some point
Also there's another stick of the Crucial RAM as well, to make my second 32Gb set of the RAM
And here's one more shot that might show a bit more of the crazy in me

Not the best of angles but I hope that makes at least one or two people smile
Been trying to get these pictures up for a while so I hope they are acceptable
Thanks for looking and many apologies for the amount of pics!!
