Yes together. I dont know if I should leave HT on. I know I can save a bit of power/electric with it off. With the 5675's I always ran them with HT off for daily stuff.

I need to get a power/watt meter.

That depends. If you need the extra performance, turn it on. However, if you're not generally using programs that utilize HT effectively, leave it off. The power draw is a not as bad as it's made out to be, but to know for sure, you need to test for yourself with a killawatt.

Mmmmmmm.......... you may be surprised. My SR-2 with 2 5675's @ 4.3 pulls almost 700w running Cinebench and GPUPI for CPU at the same time. And that's with only a workstation vid card. A high end gaming card would pull more for sure.

True, but that's 6core parts running at 4.3ghz(a very high OC which requires a ton of extra voltage/power). @natr0n is running 4 core(65w) parts at stock clocks(unless I missed the oc somewhere). That power usage is going minimal in comparison and the difference between HT on vs off will likewise be minimal. Would you not agree?

I have to get a power meter some day soon to see what my system is pulling at full tilt

If you're in the states, you can get one for between $10 to $15 at a hardware store.

A very kind TPU'er gifted me a full kill-a-watt power strip and it's been used daily ever since.

Im in Ireland so only place i can get them is either in Ireland if any is available or England is a second chioce. Worst case is china as a last resort

Found one here it €29.95

Pardon our interruption...

Dont know if it any good or how accurate it is

It's looking identical to what I have but god damn 30 Euro's??? Please don't spend that... Try this one and see if they'll send you one or three for the money of one (found same model, a bit cheaper here)..... Jesus they can charge anything!!

I think I tried LinX as well with mine and it was scary what the SR-2 could pull when overclocked.. No wonder it needed so many power connections on the motherboard!!

My pic above was just with stock clocks.. I don't think the extra performance/heat/electric usage would be worth the speed I'd get when crunching

I checked that link they dont post to Ireland which is disappointing. I know it mental for the cost of it to be honest

I sent them a message about the cost of posting to Ireland. Funny thing it said it located in England but the business in China

I do agree. He will not pull anywheres near what I am.
My bad for the apples to oranges comparison.

No worries. I mean to be fair, he could get close if those two Xeons were pushed as far as or further than yours, depending on his setup.

That's a fair price for where you're at. And they do tend to be calibrated accurately.

 

[Edwired]

I got the message back from the seller he said he don't post to ireland which is disappointing on his business site

 

[MythologicalZA]

My sr2 rig from when I was still using it, pretty cool machine all things considered
5690s, gtx 970, hcp 1000w and some random hynix ecc I got with it,all in a 900d

I'd message and ask, there's no way I'd pay triple the costs for something if there's a chance someone would post it over to you. I've very much doubt it would even be that much, heck I could buy one for you and ship it to you myself if that was the case!! Let me know if you'd like via a PM or something, I'm going to order a few anyways

 

[cobaltcosmic]

Hi all, just wanted to say hi before I jumped off into reading this thread and the Dell Owners thread. Long story short, all of my Xeon systems are Dell Rack systems. I'll post more in the Dell forum for anyone interested!

 

[tabascosauz]

Am I allowed up in here with my old E3v2, or is that considered too new / peasantry for this HEDT sanctuary?

Not a lot of fun to be had with its locked multiplier either, but I was thinking of fooling around with the BCLK. It's got a fair bit of nostalgic value; I recently reclaimed it after 6 years as an office PC for my mum. It was my first build and the first chip I had ever gone out and bought.

No worries you are more then welcome in here with yours E3v2!!!Feel free to post some pictures,tests,benchmark results......

Exactly!

All Xeon owners, past and present are welcome! Carry on good citizen! No worries at all!

Decided to mess around with the x5675 and gotten a better score in cinebench r20 with adjustment made to the ram timing

I'm just wondering is there a list of possible xeon/I7 on either r15/r20 cinebench

Found it
Cinebench r20

Cinebench R20 (Multi-Core) CPU benchmark list

Cinebench R20 (Multi-Core) list with performance comparison of all CPUs in this benchmark

www.cpu-monkey.com

Cinebench r15

Cinebench R15 (Multi-Core) CPU benchmark list

Cinebench R15 (Multi-Core) list with performance comparison of all CPUs in this benchmark

www.cpu-monkey.com

Jeez it look like x5675 with the current overclock is smack in the middle between

	Intel Core i7-8809G 4x 3.10 GHz (4.20 GHz) HT	2,095
	Intel Core i7-6700K 4x 4.00 GHz (4.20 GHz) HT	2,059

Is there the r20 list as the site is confusing me as looking to compare above

 

[uco73]

Xeon, Xeon and Xeon only.

Nah. If you go down the list past 20 you start to see some I7 980's show up.

You can always search by CPU and then narrow it down by which test you'd like to use and then what type of cooling and so on... It should look something like this when you get there.... Or like this should you get to R15 or R20 here I hope that helps

 

[Edwired]

Thanks for the links guys it just what i wanted it look like I'm wedged between SpartaLegionOC = 2150 and Grant Grey = 2083. Don't know if marks is cb related if it is not too shabby for the r20 score i achieved
