Hey,
I have a question about the Pre-2008 Octo-Mac 3.0GHz. I know that they have a Socket 771 Xeon. I've read that Harpertown (and possibly future releases) will continue to use the Socket 771 with increased FSB.
Now here's the question: Can it be upgraded with a Harpertown, etc. later on down the road? I don't have a need right now but in a couple years it'd be nice. Also I figure that the heat sink would have to be replaced (and it's possible to get one because I know someone on the inside that could get me one), so that isn't a problem.
I did a search but either I'm not seeing it, isn't definite or it isn't 100% clear. Sorry is this has been brought up but I'm just hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
