Let me know too! It's time to get rid of these PhII X4s and replace then with DP Xeon Hexs.

No problem bud. The last I noticed he had almost 40 of them. LOL. So when he re-list them I will let you guys know.

Intel X5650 2.66GHz 12MB 6.4GT/s Xeon Six Core SLBV3 1366........just bought it, it is going in ThugXeon and its gonna crunch.
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/t...llenge-official-planning-thread.212433/page-4

Six H/T cores for £ 72.00 so 6 quid a thread, sounds very reasonable to me.
It was only $1000 new .

i wont advertise the vendor here but they have more available until Thursday UK if you want to PM
@dorsetknob thanks again for finding it and texting me twice and phoning me when i was sleeping.

I'm back on my x58 W3690 rig... can't say I feel much difference from my x99 i7-5820k build I traded to my brother. Xeons truly are amazing chips. It's also amazing how little intel advances things without competition.

I think they're using the competition-free time to work on power figures over raw performance. Can't say I blame them.

ASUS P6T DELUXE Socket 1366 Motherboard
ASUS SABERTOOTH X58, LGA 1366


any one know if either of these Motherboard supports X5650 2.66GHz 12MB 6.4GT/s Xeon Six Core SLBV3 1366 ( Just bought one and need a decent Socket 1366 Motherboard )
Asus website not showing if its supported

This site says so for the P6T SE:
http://www.game-debate.com/motherboard/index.php?mot_id=60&cpuList=Asus P6T SE

Trick with those Xeons is that if it's not officially supported it will likely work anyway but it's not guaranteed

I guess that's why i own 10 Xeons

I played with one briefly. If you have the latest BIOS it should work.

Here's another list for all 1366 cpu's and motherboards:

Already bookmarked it!

The sabertooth. Sorry for not being more clear, I tend to think rather self-centerdly people will remember my old builds. LOL

Another fun board for Socket LGA1366 I am using is the Intel DX58SO2. It's the only UEFI board for X58 I know of... The UEFI is shit but it does work.

I had an Asus P6T Deluxe that sported a 5639 Xeon so I don't see why it wouldn't support the 5650.

Thanks for the info guys (and no insult Gals)
Money is tight for me at the moment (no job no dole no benefits just a care allowance for my disabled Farther).
so i'm looking at spending as little as i can on the Best board that i can stretch to money wise
Bought the xeon 5650 for a reasonable price
Pieces i can canablise from other rig(s)
have DDR 3 ram i can use in in another build
Have Pair of HD5770 for C/Fire and all the other bits needed to build a new to me system apart from a Decent m/b
looking a 3 on fleabay all of the above come up at different times one extra i found was a ASUS Rampage II Extreme, LGA 1366/Socket B with an I7 9 if i bid and won that i would have to flog on the I7 after testing it)
The best boards come last. the P6 is first. the one costing the potential most in the middle (with CPU ).
Hard choice time ?

Will keep you updated (unless any one takes pity an pm's me)

I will keep an eye out for you, they all seem a bit pricey, for me anyway, my Supermicro X8STi for £ 30.00 delivered suits my purposes but would be no good for you.

Why dont you put a WTB ad on here, there must be members across the EU with socket 1366 mobos on the shelf. Postage isnt too bad within the EU.

Well im in this section with my Xeon W3520 XD the rest is in the system specs

That's looking good, I can see you're running CoreTemp - very nice readings. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks xd im very happy with core temp and of course with my xeon that i buyed only for 33€ the last autumn XD

2gb ram

4gb ram

 

[FireFox]

4GB ram for 12 threads are optimal, on my 2 X 2P Machines am using 4GB x each CPU.

I cant find that one listed at Ark. The closest is the L5638

It is pretty much identical to the 5640. I believe the 5639 was basically an OEM chip. Lots of them available for cheap.
