Yodering, it's a heavy truck transmission oil cooler, stol... um... RESCUED from the dumpster! Sheer waste, that. It was brand new, so I don't know why it got chucked. Anyway, not owning a truck myself, it sat in the miscelaneous junk shelves for over a year before it found it's true calling.

The dual Opteron's name is Zaphod!
(for those who haven't read Hitchhiker's Guide, Zaphod is the two-headed alien.

Anyway, Zaphod is a dual AMD Opteron 244 system. My company asked for a bunch of eval units from vendors to try out, and we liked how it obliterated the Xeons, so we upgraded most of the corporate servers with dually blades, and a bunch of workstations from a whitebox vendor as well. Apparently the deal was sweet enough that they gave the 3 eval units to use at no charge. Since these were off the book and I do a lot of CAD work at home, I was able to sweet-talk the boss into taking one of them home with me. Then I promptly overclocked them from 1.8 to 1.9ghz, then ran into the thermal problem. Got the waterblocks from Xoxide, which was having a disposal sale of discontinued Socket-A waterblocks. $10 a pop, out comes the dremel, and bodge them onto the opies. Now they tick along at 2.2. They're beginning to show their age, but hey, don't look a gift horse in the mouth...
