  • @Dexterous1989 Intel Pentium is the 5th generation of the x86 architecture. I don't understand what you mean by "Original CPUs"... But yeah probably they're using something that isn't fancy...

  • i've tried it and it works but i don't have the proper equipment s these guys do

  • send data in CERN then see what will happen, please dont block me people

  • @altgeldrarities you'd get stuck to one of them.

  • It would be fun to walk through there with a one pound Neodymium magnet.

  • well i know, that they have 16 PB of storage (PB for Petabyte, not for lead)

  • Use intel xeon e5345 with motherboard- supermicro x7dbt

  • I see, i wasn't aware that it's a new installation. From what i understand they currently buy mainly Xeon blades, if that answers your question.

  • Considering this is a BRAND NEW system I HIGHLY doubt they already changed servers without even USING them yet.

  • Like other datacenters, they frequently replace old batches of servers with new ones. So you'll find a mix of various CPUs there, always changing.
