For Louka, the E5450 is fine

For Luka, the E5450 is fine and the mb he has
Yes, true, I even modded it with SLIC 2.1 so activation is done in 1 click using OEM, also it has the Xeon microcodes so I put it adapter on the CPU and the CPU in the board and it is ready to go. And the cooler has the mounting gear that is selling in Computer Store Berlin so I will get it probably by next month sometime

But cant i just cut the plastic pieces of plastic using a scalpel i still have from middle school and then put the cpu in? Instead of risking this and maybe the seller not properly welding it?
if you think you can do it get what you want
take 2 because the first one may be damaged

I know from AliExpress that it comes without shipping through Hungary, but from the ebay I don't know where it's being sent from
I will buy it on Ebay, it is better since I am buying more things at once. Buying from different stores is gonna confuse me and make me go in circles!

What I got from China with ebay has come through customs, that's why I'm telling you
Ohhh, okay, I understand now. Also my other 4 Gigabytes of RAM still aren't delivered. I told my full address and everything to the seller on Ebay, but I am not sure when will it come. Maybe tomorrow, but after it does I will have 8 Gigabytes. Also customs are the worst part, they can stop the order and then you gotta pay to get it and then pay to get it delivered to you. Croatia's system of Customs is so bad, I just heavily despise of it, not sure for your country but it is surely better than for me.

It's the same here for the last few years, but what I get from AliExpress comes from Hungary and I don't pay anything

I don't pay for Taxes nor in customs too if the thing we bought is less than 20 euros, if more than I gotta pay 25% of the price for the order as VAT or Tax, and more than 100 I pay for customs crap and Taxes
