Looking at the manuals, it doesn't look like the DL360's have those modules that connect onto the motherboard like the DL380's? Would that module be the same in the DL380 for a 5110 and 5335? Thanks! jlc

You will know quickly if you are not. The DLs will shut down rather than smoke themselves. ________________________________ From: Joseph L.

Logically, I am sure that would work but I have never pillaged an HP before and am not sure what I may encounter...

But what I forgot to include is there the factory heatsink comes with a strip of thermal compound. From: Joseph L.

I would hate to have a small fileserver for ~20 people have the Quad core that could go into an ESX server :) Cheers, jlc From: Barsodi.John [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2008 2:04 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: HP Processor Swap Yes it will detach, but you will want to buy another heatsink that has the or lube up with some thermal compound. From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2008 12:30 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP Processor Swap I would like to take the 5110 from inside a DL380G5 and swap it with the 5335 in a DL360G5. Both systems are compatible with either processor, but obviously the heat sinks will be different. I can't remember the last time I actually handled a proc for one of these beats if the heat sink was factory bonded or not? Will it detach from the CPU so I can swap these?
