From what I’ve found the model 8864 came standard with 7100 series Xeons, but the 8863 was only available with 7000 series Xeons for a dual core option. Knowing that both systems use the same chipset I was hoping to replace the single core Cranford Xeons that it came with with a set of 7140n processors. So far, no success. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
