a166524 Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 it might be the SUPERMICRO MBD-X7DA3+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludacrisvp Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 it might be the SUPERMICRO MBD-X7DA3+ Nope, you will notice that the board you listed doesnt use Riser cards for the RAM. Also there is an issue where the MacPro board is mounted "upside down" on the opposite side for a "normal" motherboard. The Northbridge is Intel 5400B Rev C0 The Southbridge is Intel 6321ESB Rev 09 The name for the Mac Motherboard is Mac-F42C88C8 Here is a whole bunch of info grabbed from CPU-Z cpuz.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeriJane Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 What socket 771 motherboard is curently in every MacPro out there? There's actually at least two different logic boards. The original Quad core Mac Pro 1.1 has one based on the Intel 5000X chipset. It is Mac- specific. It appears to have been manufactured by Foxconn, a major motherboard maker who also makes them for HP, Intel and others. They also make a lot of the Laptops out there. The 2008 model 8 core Mac Pro 3.1 logic board is based on the Intel 5400 chipset and supports faster RAM and PCIe 2.0, but is otherwise similar. Was there a 2.1? Anybody?

gteles Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Foxconn made the board until this generation, now some people says that asus is manufacturing for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cavallo Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 $600 dollars for the 5400? Crazy http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813121330 This is not Mac Pro board this is for pc, Apple one dissassembled, refurbished or reconditioned sometimes on e bay is around 650/700 euro (not dollars), there is a little bit difference, sata controllers are not on board. In any case your post proves that self build Hack Pro with same same hardware is more expensive than the original, two e5462 intel quad are now quoted around 1600 euro, mine (with sofware) was at 2499 euro (original). it might be the SUPERMICRO MBD-X7DA3+ Probably but modified there are not Apple mobo with sata controllers as on this and others Motherboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
