How Reputable A Seller are they? I Ask because i was looking at Xeons and their CPU Z Screenshot has Intel Core i3/i5/i7 in the screenshot where it should say Xeon.
Do you have an opinion in General on QFQG 2695s? Patriot says not to get any QFxx chip of a 14C Die.Well, its strange, considering the fact that the cpu-z version appears to be the same. But there is one thing I was thinking about. What if the cpu version is not the same? If you look at the HW-Info screenshot, three different spec codes are listed, QFQG, QG7R and QG** something. There are other people who now this better, but I think QFQG has x35 single core multiplier (I have seen it before), but HW-Info somehow does not know, what is under the lid. The one HW-Trade is selling has a multiplier of x33.
Here is another QFQG one:
XEON E5 2695 v3 QS why buy i7-5930K 5820K 5960X 6950X 6850K 6900K 6800K ?
Its max multi is also x35.
From this info I think, that the "slower" one is something QG*, but as it was remarked, we can't know it for sure.
The item for sale is a genuine Intel Xeon E5-2695 v3 C0 stepping pre qualification sample (pre-QS) processor. It provides the same features, multi-core performance, and hardware compatibility as the production processor SR1XG, but with higher turbo frequencies that are better in single-core or low thread performance. Each item will be sold individually with an original Intel anti-static clamshell protector.
I don't know, but probably I'd choose the safer way. If I am right, QFQG has slightly higher multis (it has to be confirmed by someone, who actualy owns one, as from the HW-Info screenshoots only the max is obvious, so no all core is known), so it is no wonder if its performance is also higher.Do you have an opinion in General on QFQG 2695s?

However in a Completed Bloommax listing for 2 QFQGs it appears the QFQG might have better performance than the Production SR1XG:
