There is no way that you can change both processors and the bios chip in 5 mintues. They were able to do that because the serve wasn’t in the rack and the cover was already off.

you don’t use a screw driver on HP AMD servers either, that’s some generic box/board. And real soon I can drop a 6core istanbul chip in to the same socket, excellent luck with your xeons.

I hope you change the thermal grease before you remounted the heatsink

What a nice way to ruin your expensive chip. Always replace your heatsink grease because re-using dried out compound results in air bubbles and reduced heat transfer, this can result in heat buildup and burn up your chip.
