Bob.
Can we put in our batch 2 orders at technobit? I still did not get an confirmation email from BA.
We need the T&T code to complete an B2 order

What do you guys think:
Stacking 3 boards and powering with a DPS2K? Should have enough juice left for 2 S3 units I think.
Just gotta get coolers and a controller. And whatever stand offs will work.
Anyone have suggestions on standoff a for these boards?

Newegg.com has the Arctic 7 cooler on sale with a $7 dollar discount now. Limit of 5. Just picked me up some for the build.

They're certainly less dodgy than mine They look similar spec to those on the board reviewed by @2GOOD. His cooler fins were only ~8C above ambient (i presume at 100GH), but I think his has copper spreader on bottom.

I need 12 of them... and I know some of you guys need MANY MANY of them.

Those PSU Should work fine and run on the sweet spot of >90% efficiency with only 60% load. Slightly less efficient if you added the S3s, but still ~90%. I'm not sure on the boards hole diameter, large enough and you may get away with cheap threaded rod with lock nuts for standoffs. failing that you could use short threaded rods with locknuts on each board and then have drilled wooden dowells (broomstick) that go in between boards. Paint them black if you have spare time b4 boards arrive

That can only do 95w tdp so may not get you chips cool enough.

Sub 100W CPU are in reference to 20 dB noise of the fan. It can cool a CPU up to 170W but the fan will be spinning faster and you will have more noise levels.
