addy33 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I don't really need a skulltrail dual-socket one just one that'll fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagal Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Your post is very confusing. Besides various revisions (1,1 2,1 and now 3,1), there is only a Mac Pro logic board, there are not different types and they are all dual socket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vbetts Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Is it Foxconn that makes the Macpro logic boards? Â But I think he means what socket and chipset... Â Dual lga 775, which whatever sockets the latest quad core Xeons use, that's involved with the chipset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harloe Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I thought you needed 771 Sockets for the Mac Pro boards and processors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbetts Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I could be wrong, 771 seems more realistic than 2 LGA775s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thespottedelf Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 did he check to see if his apple care ran out? (btw people... if your gonna spend 3000 dollars on a computer buy apple care jeez...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua-mac Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 If it is only the mainboard that has gone, get a new board. It would be a shame to ditch all that other hardware. The boards, while not cheap are reasonably priced. You can get them from Apple Palace, We love Macs and Mac pro. Watch Mac pro though, have a word with Nagal on this forum who has bought a couple and will have good advice on a place to purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj_stick Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 the new mac pros (3,1) use a logic board based on the intel i5400 chipset (same as in the skulltrail) if that's any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
