[NAME] Researcher  All of the models have 4 Sata ports. The system with the copper heatpipe cooler is better.The cooler alone is $50 or so. [IMAGE][IMAGE]
Hi Gang Great help last time around from Cmdr. speedstep & 1st Lt. Brad (Thank You Both)! Sales of 3620's are changing all the time. The price fluctuations are fast and furious. Was curious (if you guys weren't too busy); maybe we could do a quick comparison between the 3.40GHz i7-7700 vs. 3620 4.20GHz i7-7700? I noticed a flood of later model 2017's 4.20GHz on ebay. 3.40GHz i7-7700 [IMAGE]  [IMAGE] 4.20GHz i7-7700 [IMAGE][IMAGE] Just to be sure; none of these above have multiple (internal) sata ports correct? I think just 1 or 2? The Processor is of noticeably different construction. Not to get confused: I recall the Cmdr. pointing out there's apparently a different compatible motherboard available which has 3 or 4 sata ports (internally)? I'm not necessarily looking for that, I was going to use a #4 port esata PCI card: Sonnet Tempo PCIE Esata 4 port TSATA6-PRO-E4 (which I picked up). So how does the efficiency comparison look between the 4.20GHz and the 3.40GHz? Apparently there's a bunch of 4.20GHz's available (no HHD or OS) for about the same price, (under $200). Thanx Guys (you've been really helpful) Mike
