more cores will go faster, u get nothing with 200mhz more per core.Still interested if anyone is runnning: E5-2658 v3 - QEYP, as it looks like the best deal out there.
Any alternatives? Faster without HT may be?
That are different bios rev., look at the date on the left. but that latest bios is not needed for haswell-ep v3 cpu.Why is the bios version different in those screenshots? One shows 5.11 and the other shows f22. Are you using a different bios on the primary and then on the secondary?
it was a beta BIOS.Yea that's what I had realized after I had edited my post for that. 5.11 seems to be a custom bios if I am not mistaken though?
2670 v3 QGDQ is QS not ES2(stepping 2,rev.M0)Have you tried the E5-2670 V3 QGDQ (ES2 with M0)? I was looking at that or the E5-2690 V3 but the E5-2690 V3's I found were ES1 with Stepping 1 (B0 stepping).
The 2650v3 QEYN 10 cores, all 2500mhz, single 2800mhz.
But the 2658v3 QEYP has the best price/performance ratio yet.
Anything with 3ghz is way out of reasonable price range, right? Say 8-12 cores, 3Ghz, no HT would be nice.more cores will go faster, u get nothing with 200mhz more per core.
Any luck getting the system to work? I'm still waiting for the Mobo/RAM.I received my cpu's on friday. Same board, waiting on the ram ( will be delivered today ) ...
You should check if the retail version of that cpu is compat. with your board, if is the 2695v2 QS will run.Not sure if this belongs in this thread, but does anyone know if these E5-2695 V2's on eBay would work with an Asus Z9-PAD8?
Intel Xeon E5 2695 V2 QS 2.4Ghz 30MB L3 12 Core Max Turbo 3.2GGhz 115W CPU
I have the Asus board and dual E5-2670's on the way, but after reading more about ES chips and eBay chips in general, I'm wondering if the 2695 v2 or even 2697 v2 would be a better purchase. If I install the E5-2670's now, would it be relatively simple to swap them out for 2695 v2's or 2697 v2's later on?
This is all LGA 2011 as far as I know, so any of these chips should just work, right?
M0 ist the stepping of retail, QS has usualy that stepping.QGP2 should be QS and and QFS0 should be M0 which is ES according to this:

descent yes, 3 times more cores, lower clock but much more IPCAnything with 3ghz is way out of reasonable price range, right? Say 8-12 cores, 3Ghz, no HT would be nice.
2658v3 QEYP looks like a descent upgrade from 2.5Ghz E3-1265Lv2 alone. Two won't even compare.
various, 85..95 degree TJmax for normal, 70..75 degree for LV ones.Bit of a generic question, but what's the thermal cutoff for the ES v3/v4 chips in general? 90-105C...?
unfortunately my build is hanging right now, waiting for 2 EK waterblocks.Any luck getting the system to work? I'm still waiting for the Mobo/RAM.
Good luck. If things go well I'll have something by Sunday, though that depends on the mobo delivery.unfortunately my build is hanging right now, waiting for 2 EK waterblocks.
The waiting is killing. I Hope I have info this weekend.
As @RolloZ170 has indicated..Still interested if anyone is runnning: E5-2658 v3 - QEYP, as it looks like the best deal out there.
I purchased an E5-2658 v3 ES from hwtrade-e on eBay on 8/1, it arrived in PDX today 8/10. Asking price was $156, my offer of $145 was accepted (+ shipping). The seller communicated well and provided tracking details and a hwinfo "screen shot" of the CPU details. The tracking details allowed me to track the item through USPS from arriving in SFO through to delivery. CPU was in good shape, shipped in an anti-static bag with plenty of protection in a small box. This is not an endorsement of the seller, "just the facts, ma'am".the 2658v3 QEYP has the best price/performance ratio yet
For any cpu/motherboard check socket type for both. If they match then the cpu is compatible with the motherboard. You might also want to check TDP for both cpu and motherboard.
As for swapping cpus it should be an easy task.
Thanks for the tips guys. I feel super fortunate to have discovered such a helpful and engaging community around this stuff. I'll definitely post my experiences with these chips when I get an opportunity to play with them.You should check if the retail version of that cpu is compat. with your board, if is the 2695v2 QS will run.
