Yes, they're San Diego's, but they are more and more often called Venus cores but those are the defunct S940 versions.

Great, anyone know if I can install it in a Shuttle 939 SN95G5 V1?

yep you should be able to. opteron 146 is a regular skt 939 chip.

There's no guarantee that it will work, looking at Shuttle's website the last BIOS doesn't mention Opteron support, but I've used (albeit on an Asus MB) an Opteron without official support and it was simply reported as a Unknown Processor but otherwise worked as intended.

I suspect it will work without issue in this case though.

yeah they generally do just read as unknown cpu and work fine - more a case of find somebosy with the pairing and ask them

My Neo 2 Platinum only saw it as an Unknown Processor. Didnt have any side effects. I would recomend looking around to see if anyone else with a shuttle and opteron got it working. It would be a shame to see it not work.

I had one in a Shuttle SN95G5 and it worked flawlessly, ran it at 2.8Ghz stock volts

I've not seen anyone with problems running an optie in any S939 board.

what version was it?

And did it pick it up as an opty or unknown cpu?

Minstadave · 21 Feb 2006 at 11:17

I can't remember to be honest, I sold it soon after I set it up

easyrider · 21 Feb 2006 at 11:25

could a don please edit the title of this thread for me?

And change it to opteron 146 compatible with shuttle 939 SN95G5 V1

thanks

I wouldn't worry mate, I'm pretty sure they'd work fine together,

Jokester · 21 Feb 2006 at 18:13

Yeah I'm fairly sure it would work since it is a San Diego core, if it had been a different core to the SD then it may have caused problems.

Well The shuttle I'm am thinking of buying second hand so I want it to work with the opteron.I don't want to be stuck with a second hand shuttle and no cpu for it.

Title changed and moved to Small Form Factor, as that's where the Shuttle experts be.
