My old X5690 was good for 4800 @ 1.6v all core, that was it .. I should never have sold that system. Deep regrets. After a decade together. Sadness.

It was just sitting on my shelf in a box. She said you arent using it, let someone else enjoy it.. and I was like.. that's a great idea. we had our fun, now she can enjoy retirement.. ahh well.. still have my X48 with Xeon lol

That's a lot of RAM. What's it going into?

You guys will see when it's complete

TEASE!!

2698v4
128GB (8x16GB RDIMM)
Gigabyte x99-SLI
GTX Titan X (Maxwell)
All SSD with plenty to add.

This is replacing the current dual 2680v2/64GB server. A coworker of mine is taking the old girl and I know it'll be in good hands. This one however will be kept as I plan on dual socket'ing it later on if I need more threads.

20c/40t isn't enough? What do you have it running?

 

[Toothless]

20c/40t isn't enough? What do you have it running?

BOINC (since it takes so much less power)

Games, bots, quite a few things since now I'm going to really use it and don't have to be limited by storage speeds and etc.

Just picked up a dell optiplex 790 sff for free apparently did abit of reading online it does support Xeon e3-1230 to e3-1270 no GPU onboard. But I spotted there is e3-1245 with onboard GPU. Is it a wise move to swap the i5 2400 for the Xeon e3 sandy bridge?

Isn't the i5 2400 4 cores 4 threads?

 

[Edwired]

Isn't the i5 2400 4 cores 4 threads?

Yeah it 4 core 4 threads as I'm after looking around online spotted an e3-1275 with igpu inside of it as I aam looking to upgrade it so it have abit more performance as it 4 cores 8 threads on e3-1275 as well higher clock 3.4ghz turbo to 3.8ghz igpu is Intel p3000 compare to the i5 2400 clock 3.1ghz turbo to 3.4ghz Intel igpu is hd2000 I think lower clock on that. But not too sure if it will work without issue since the bios is at the latest A22. Both are on 95w tdp

I have a W2134 but no Board, a good one on the second hand market is by 200€

A new one between 300-400€

 

[lexluthermiester]

W2134

What socket is that?

 

[FireFox]

What socket is that?

FCLGA2066?
I assume that because i know that the
W2133-W2135 are socket 2066.
W2134 never heard of it maybe he meant E-2134?

lga2066 was an expensive plataform, not Worth the investement for a quad core cpu imho.

When you're a truly enthusiast even a 1 core CPU it's worth to you

lga2066 was an expensive plataform, not Worth the investement for a quad core cpu imho.

In fairness, that was a 2017 Quad core and a high clock speed sample as well. It's not a shabby CPU. With the right board they could make a decent system with it.

 

[Xeon]

Yes, but the right board goes for alot of money because they are pretty sought after. X299 it's a pretty sweet plataform up to 18 cores and overclock.

A Xeon is a Xeon and even if the board is expensive now doesn't mean it won't go down later.
