What ridiculous is that you don't see the difference between 'peg all CPU cores at 100%' and power consumption. And that explains everything
What does this even mean? Once again you are failing to take into account the fact that the 2673 v2 has an all core turbo of 3.6GHz (as does the 130w 2667 v2 and the fire alarm 150 watt 2687w v2). And the Power limit 2 on the 2673 v2 is rated at 137.5W
with an unlimited time component. Meaning that it will not throttle back to "base clock" under any work load. So effectively, all three processors have the SAME base speed of 3.6GHz, given you have proper cooling in place. This negates any 100MHz advantage in base clock that the 3687w may have. Looks better on paper, but just the opposite in reality.
And here you have been telling everyone under the sun that the 2673 v2 turbo performance is limited by the 110 watt TDP. This snip should speak for itself, enough said:
what is ridiculous is that you think OEM CPUs are suited for "lite duty" but that they suck under heavy computational jobs. This is also a complete fallacy. The OEM 2696 v2 actually performs better than Intel's flagship 2697 v2 under heavy work loads due to 100MHz higher all core turbo.
Yep, under some 'lite' type of load those OEM versions are better, but they sucks in heavy computational job. That is why they were never meant for public release. Generic customers asking: "why my Xeon sucks under load as much as common Celeron?" is not what Intel wishes most
Im not even going to humor a response to that first sentence. And
that's not why they were never meant for public release. OEM CPUs were intended for use in a wide range of hardware, a very diverse system environment since they are usually sold with servers that need to perform in a wide variety of operating conditions. Meaning they need to be more versatile than retail chips which typically fit a certain niche market. This is why OEM chips must strike a better balance between core count, frequency and voltage. And if you study the OEM processors in the 2600 series family you will see that I am not bluffing here.
