So 24 threads total and 160w 10-12k ppd, that means that the ppd of each processor will be around 5/6k each one?

That's what I would expect to see but YMMV

And what would do say if I tell you that my actual Xeon V2 3.4GHz 6 threads almost give me 5-6k ppd?

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Mar 15, 2015

@ 2.2 ghz I would expect him actually being in the 8 to 9k ppd range if that. Mine with dual 6c/12t 2.6 cpu's under linux is in the 10k to 12k ppd range. And yes a 4c/8t cpu running at 3.4 will probably either keep up to or outrun a 6c/12 t cpu running at 2.2.

That is wrong because a cpu cannot consume more power than what is rated at for sustained period of time (excluding Turbo). The total power consumption will of course be higher than 120W because motherboard, hdd and ram also consume some power and there is the <100% efficiency of the power supply but i think that a 160W is a reasonable estimate because this:

seens legit ...
thanks

Update

Hy Guys.
Today i want to share with you my First Dual Socket MotherBoard

Tyan S7010 Dual Sockel 1366 Serverboard

In the pic we can see the Twin: Intel CPU Xeon L5640 6c/12t @ 2.26GHz 60W -5,86 GT/s - SLBV8
and a third: Intel Xeon L5520 4c/8t @ 2.26GHz 60W (CPU Test)

A Big Big THANKS to @krusha03 because he has spent a lot of his time on internet looking for this Motherboard and the processors that today i own, Thanks Bro for all your suggestions, ideas and time that you have dedicated to this Project :respect:

Thanks to @Norton and @krusha03 for suggesting the Power Supply :toast:

The power Supply have been ordered and it should be here in a few days.

Thanks to @Norton for this suggestion:
(Worst case you can pick up a cheap dual core chip to do a bios update for the board before installing the hex core ones)
That is why the third CPU

I am looking for compatible Ram (maybe ecc ram could work) and where the hell it will fit this MotherBoard (Case) so all advices are welcome.

Cheers.

ECC ram will work (the one i linked for you in PM). it's a server board after all

This time i would prefer to buy new Ram

Kingston HyperX Fury

a custom water cooling on that board may like porn to my eyes

tell us more knoxx what are are you going to use fot this evil setup you have there? :eek:

Joke.
At the moment i have a lot of stress with this Build and i am not thinking clearly :shadedshu:

buying here buying there ect ect ect, i need some rest :roll:

Huh, can you? I was under the impression that the only dual socket 1366 motherboard that can overclock is tge evga sr-2?

ThE_MaD_ShOt · Mar 18, 2015

Modded bios. ='s win

krusha03 · Mar 18, 2015

Which board is that, and where are these modded bios files

Edit: also @Knoxx29 steal some ram from your other machines and fire up that thing already. I am excited to see that board running like it's my own

The board is a Supermicro X8DAL-i and the bios came from [H]. T-ski flashed the board to the modded bios when he had it.

I have to wait for the power supply dual 8 connector otherwise I can't do anything and for the ram I don't have to steal it because the computer shop is in front of my house :roll:

Which Ram would be better:

IBM PC3-10600R 2 GB DDR3 RAM Modul ECC REG 44T1491
Or
Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB Kit (2x4GB) 1333MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM - Blue (HX313C9FK2/8)

If the board will take regular ram (non ECC) I would go with that since it can be used on your other rigs if you need it for some reason,
