Not strictly a Linux question, but hoping someone here might have 
experience.

We purchased SC1435s originally almost 2 years ago with single Dual core 
Opteron 2216s. We'd like to upgrade these to a Quad core Opteron 2376.

Dell support seem a bit clueless on compatibility and put on a new m/b 
on the quote with split power plane. From what I can see from reading up 
a bios update to the original mbs is all that should be required, 
accepting there will be some power/performance compromise on the 
northbridge clockspeed due to it not being split plane.

Can anyone say decisively if this is right and will work? (are Dell just 
trying to scam us for more mullah?)

cheers,

Barnaby
