    Best part about this hot rod is it comes with a dog!
     
    I'd buy it

    Hey guys! 
     
    I was surprised to find this thread on this forum! I like a good car group! 
     
    I have a custom made monster here, Its a custom Chassis, sitting on the running gear of a 76 Chevy Cheyenne. The motor is a Chevy 350 with a 4 barrel Edelbrock and a Oversized Cam. The tranny is a 700R4 automatic with a 2000rpm stall converter. The body is a 80's Jeep with 7" cut out of the center to narrow it up. She's a ripper.
     
    Also, the most important feature, a loop mounted to the roll cage to hook up a chain leash, for my puppy to ride safely...
     
    *EDIT, My dad, Brother, Uncle, and Myself, built it in 4 Months for around $3000. Anythings possible if you do it yourself.

    Can't say I'm totally enthralled with all of your aesthetic elements, but the concept and what I see of the fabrication looks brilliant. Looks like something that you'd want to tear down a dirt trail in the southwest with, assuming there might be a skid pan under it.

    It could have 1,000 cores and still not perform very well in modern fps games.
     
    The combined cpu would be outperformed by a 3200G except possibly in very highly threaded tasks. Nonetheless, with ssd storage the system should be fine for browsing, spreadsheets, etc.

    anyway ... the 2427 opterons are 115w TDP processors, they'll use a lot of power even when idle.
    So two of them will probably average 100-150w or so of power consumption..
     
    the motherboard should start with a 4-500w psu but you most likely have to insert both 4pin and 8 pin connectors for power. If you want to be cheap, find some 8 pin cpu extension cable (or cut one from another supply along with the wires) and connect it to the psu besides the 4 pin cpu connector ... yellow wires go to 12v , black wires go to ground... it's easy to add connectors to psu.
     
    if you're not sure why something doesn't start.. simplify the circuit ... disconnect sata drives, try again ... not working? leave just two memory sticks per cpu, then try with only one stick per cpu (read manual to see which memory slot must have ram) ...
    if it still doesn't work, try with just one cpu first... but make sure the video card is inserted into the pci-e slot for that particular CPU socket that's filled with CPU. Some pci-e slots are connected to one cpu socket, some to the other socket.
     
    With these workstation / server boards it's not uncommon to take up to 1 minute for a system to boot when there are hardware changes
     
    it's purely impossible for  motherboard to know the wattage of a psu, unless it's a proprietary power supply with special connectors.
    It's possible for a motherboard + cpus to pull a lot of power from a power supply, more than it could handle, but it shouldn't be the case here. If you think this may be the case, you could just try removing one cpu and its ram to reduce the theoretical power consumption by half and see if the system starts.

    Well, the PSU just isn't installed there. Definitely a showstopper. ?

    Okay as far as I can see, that's a PSU built by Yue-Lin and rated for 360W on the 12V rail. That's two red flags for quality, so there's a good chance that's the problem.
     
    The official PSU recommendation is exaggerated to cover their asses. You don't need a thousand watts, unless you plug in some much more power-hungry graphics cards.

    TheLostTroll13 reacted to mariushm in I think my PSU is to Small??   
    you need 24pin atx + 4 pin cpu power + 8 pin cpu power to power the board
     
    My advice... DO NOT waste your money on a 1200w psu. Use that money to buy something new.

    The two 6 core cpus you have now are about 10-20% less powerful than a Ryzen 3 1200 processor (4 core, 4 thread)
    Spend 50$ on a Ryzen 1200 and a 60$ B450 motherboard and some ram and you'll get higher performance, for around half the amount of electricity  (your two opterons will idle at around 80-100 watts, a ryzen 3 1200 will idle at around 40w)
     
    also in the pictures the video card doesn't have a 6 pin pci-e connector plugged in - that could stop your pc from starting up.
