how to install Lenovo Intel Xeon Platinum 8180 Octacosa-core (28 Core) 2.50 GHz Processor Upgrade

  • Step 1 — Verify compatibility: Confirm your Lenovo server model supports Socket 3 processors and check BIOS/firmware requirements. Review Lenovo's compatibility guides and ensure you have the latest BIOS or firmware updates before beginning the upgrade.
  • Step 2 — Prepare the workstation: Power down the server completely, unplug all power sources, and ground yourself to prevent static discharge. Open the chassis following the manufacturer’s instructions and ensure a clean, static-free workspace.
  • Step 3 — Access the CPU socket: Locate the processor socket, release the retention mechanism, and remove the existing CPU if present. Examine the socket for any debris or bent pins and prepare the socket for the new processor.
  • Step 4 — Install the new CPU: Align the Xeon Platinum 8180 with the Socket 3 orientation, place it carefully into the socket, and secure the locking mechanism. Do not force the processor or bend pins. Check that the CPU is seated evenly and the contact surfaces are clean.
  • Step 5 — Apply thermal interface material: If required by your Lenovo cooling solution, apply a thin, even layer of high-quality thermal paste on the CPU heat spreader. Reinstall the heatsink/fan assembly, ensuring all mounting hardware is tightened to the manufacturer’s specifications for optimal heat dissipation.
  • Step 6 — Finalize installation: Reinstall any removed components, reconnect power and cooling fans, and boot the server. Enter the BIOS to verify CPU recognition and enable recommended performance profiles. Apply any available BIOS/firmware updates to ensure compatibility with the new processor and Lenovo server hardware. Run a quick POST test and monitor system temperatures and core behavior during initial operation.

2 Early Kubrick Films in 1 Thrilling Package
The most important thing for the buyer to know about The Killing Criterion Blu-Ray is that it collects 2 of Stanley Kubrick’s earlier films: The Killing (1956) and Killer’s Kiss (1955). Even though the Killer’s Kiss title is not on the box, it is present as an extra, along with its trailer. Other than that, you can expect the usual from a Criterion Collection release. For those who don’t know, that means terrific quality and presentation, with loads of extra supplementary material. As far as the movies themselves go — unlike Fear and Desire, I can actually recommend these two movies as movies, as opposed to morbid curiosities of Kubrick fanatics. They are both pretty intense crime thrillers and just a ton of fun. This is Kubrick before he makes big studio movies with big budgets, but after he’s gained more of the experience and sophistication he would later be known for. The product feels raw, gritty, sometimes intimate, and gives you a look at his NYC roots. Kubrick is still an underdog at this stage in his career. So, would definitely recommend for Kubrick fans, and just crime thriller fans in general

The Mastery of Stanley Kubrick
We're all children of Kubrick aren't we? Is there anything that you can do that he hasn't done? - Paul Thomas Anderson. One of the most true statements about a great director from another great director. Stanley Kubrick's The Killing is a harsh piece of filmmaking that is the true definition of a film noir heist movie. The characters are not glamorous and they are not symphatetic. They are merely real and that is all you need in a movie. These characters move through the intricate plot with the masterful direction of Kubrick guiding them through it and speaking the crisp dialogue from pulp novelist Jim Thompson. With that combination The Killing is noir at its finest. A great early masterpiece from Kubrick. This Criterion Collection blu-ray also includes another early Kubrick work, Killer's Kiss, about a boxer who falls in love with a woman who lives next door to him and thus gets caught up in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with her shady boss. A great companion movie for The Killing. But there is one disappointment with this Criterion release. When it was first annouced that they were releasing this film, I had high hopes that they would release the rare Kubrick film Fear and Desire with this, but I was sadly disappointed. Maybe there is a seperate Criterion release for that film in the near future, we can only hope. But all in all this is a great blu-ray, highly recommended for fans of Kubrick or fans of the film noir genre.

Best glass skin mask that makes it look like you just had a facial!
Color: Lifting (Jericho Rose), Color: Lifting (Jericho Rose)
I bought this mask yesterday and used it last night for the first time. It instantly became part of my skincare regimen after just one use. I’ve tried a couple of different Korean skincare masks, but this one is already my top pick. First, it comes with the silicone applicator to help apply it evenly. It’s not sticky or tacky and it stays in place. The directions say wait 40 minutes and after 40 minutes it is dry and peels off like a normal face mask! It doesn’t pull at your skin when peeling it off, you don’t need to rinse it with water, and then the results are INSTANT. I was completely captivated in the shine it gave my skin. This will be a repeated purchase which sounds crazy after one use, but you can just tell it’s that good!! I included before and after (less than an hour time difference in these photos!)
