I don't know though that's partly bad research on your part. That information regarding the riser is in the pdf on their website... I've built with that board
And if you needed this configuration you probably could have saved heartache going with a supermicro or tyan prebuild or just had the build speced by Boxx or Racksaver etc. :) Yes I understand the issue with accents but its funny when most non-corporate clients deal with that from every major vendor right now CW Sent via BlackBerry from Cingular Wireless -----Original Message----- From: Ben Ruset <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2006 17:05:58 To:The Hardware List <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [H] Dell Laptop Batteries I needed to buy two Opteron capable servers with PCI slots. I finally found one that had both PCI-X and PCI. It was an Asus. So when we got it in, I noticed that it only came with a PCI-X riser. I went back and forth with Asus "support" who finally gave up and said that they had no part # for a PCI riser card. We had to communicate through email because I could not, for the life of me, understand him through his Asian accent. After much trial and error I finally found some guy on the internet who had risers that worked with those servers. That's my pretty crappy whitebox support story. And the whitebox itself (no processors, drives, or RAM) was $1000+. joeuser wrote: > I'd have to say white boxes are quality PC's for the most part. > I'm not blindly anti-dell, my eyes are wide open.
