I loved at the close up pics of the ebay listing for the 2800 MP and the bridges correspond to the tables in that link and the specs of the CPU.

Since the MB doesn't support over clocking other than a jumper for 100 or 133 FSB (200 and 266 respectively due to double data rate bus) The bridges may give me a means of doing so via the multiplier and I should be able to adjust the v-core as well.

Just picked up 2 Thermaltake volcano 11 Xazer CPU coolers from over the pond, there was a seller with a bunch of them cheap in NZ. NOS ones

Those are the very coolers I used back in the Athlon XP days way back in year 9-10 in my high school days for my first proper gaming PC.

Hey Sir tanington, you wouldn't happen to have any old SCSI 166 drives? This board has the controller for SCSI built in and would be advantageous to use it.

SCSI 166?
not sure i know what that is VSH?
only SCSI i know are the old 50 pin SCSI one, then SCSI2 and 3 i think were 68 pin.
my amigas all have the old 20 40 and 80MB (yes MegaByte) SCSI1 50 pins.

VSH what board have you got exactly?

guessing its this dude.

if so, its ultra 160. so 68 pin SCSI3. i think i might have.

nup. threw em out with the DL380G3s a while back.
WORK might be binning some VSH as we are moving. let me know when you can

oops. I got that wrong. I must of been thinking ultra ata or something. its actually Ultra SCSI 320

This is the board I got.

I will have a grovel through our old server pile at work. I am pretty sure that I will have some ultra-320 drives. How picky on size / speed are you? They are probably from IBM x346 servers.

I am currently in hospital for a minor op but will be back at work next week. Let me know.

not fussed, anything around 40GB up is fine
