its a SMD mod... basically your moving a SMD from one spot to another.

Very small would not recommend

Ah, the good ole small means of destruction mod :thumbsup:

I've been speaking with a pretty inside man. He says revision 2 aka latest E762's don't require any mod for westmere, just bios flash. Revision 1 of E762 had some signal issues for westmere..

lmao... inside man... :ohcrap:

well im kinda "inside" on taht too lol

but yeah, they should be coming out soon pre modded....

Lol:D I didn't know you where....:ohcrap:

:D

lol i know..... its cool, I just hate when people swear they hav ethe inside info, and it contradicts most truth...

then people make uninformed decisions. like you may have done.

Isn't Westmere the dual QPI chips anyways? Why buy them? Shouldn't we be good to go with just i7 980x and W3680 variants?

I agree,

But when it comes to that some people bench any chip just to get the points.... so technically the westmeres are another cpu you can bench for that many more points ;)

I'm i getting hooked up with this Rev 2? :P

if we dont have any, I will mod yours before shipping ;)

:clapping:

You ARE THE MAN!

Thanks for all the good info guys! :thumb:
