Nice story Eddie. I did replace the Xeon CPUs on that last Dell I had the T5400. The price wasn't too bad on them since it was an older machine, processors. I did see lots of notes on being very careful on getting the processor properly seated before fastening it all down. Luckily, I had no issues and those processors ran well right up to selling the machine.

If I want more cores and processor speed for my machine, nearly $32,000 for the pair..... Not gonna happen. LOL
