Hi,
I have a Z600 with boot block date of 1/7/10, which I believe makes it a C2 veriosn (later) Z600. I already have 24GB ram (4GB x 6) but only running a single E5630 CPU. I realise the second 12GB is unused. Mostly fine, but I am running more and more VM's on this machine and really want to improve the performance.
I want to add a second CPU within certain costs restraints.
Easy option would be to source a second E5630. These are dirt cheap on ebay, so probably the way I'll go. I know you can go up to the 3ghz hex core X5772? CPU's, but they're more than I want to spend on this particular machine.
The question I have is about cooler / heatsink. Does anyone know the correct part number for the HP heatsink for this?
I have read mixed stuff about two different models, and not sure which I should be
Also, any suggestions on where other than ebay to source these?
thanks
