Asus z10pe D8 ws for $200?Hi Guys,
finally a forum where you can discuss ES Xeons without reading "those are illegal RABBLE RABBLE" every other comment. (we don't care)
I got my hands on a brand new Asus z10pe D8 ws for ≈ $200, and thought of getting some ES's to it, for a cheap but powerful server.
that's just one of many reasons why i chose to go with a supermicro board instead...i knew about that ASUS board issue with v4 and didn't want to risk buying one and end up getting a pre-oct15 versionWow can't believe they require a PCB revision to support V4 Broadwell-E processors which appears to be serial number based.
Looks good, same stepping as OEM/Retail. That is a very good processor for the price. Great Cinebench score as well, 200 more over my 2683V3 (mine has a slight over clock).Hi,
i received my 2686 v3 CPU..
vt-d works in esxi, i've passed through my gpu and a usb3 pcie card to a windows 10 VM.
if anyone can shed any light on this cpu (Stepping etc), that would be great
which MB are you using? (did you read my next post after the benchmarks?)Looks good, same stepping as OEM/Retail. That is a very good processor for the price. Great Cinebench score as well, 200 more over my 2683V3 (mine has a slight over clock).
I think there's a difference between 65W low-power 2650L and 14 core 2690. I mean that are two totally different CPU in terms of price and performance.I've read the entire thread and I'm leaning towards either of these:
Intel Xeon E5 2650L V4 ES 1.5Ghz 30MB L3 12 Core MaxTurbo 2.3Ghz 65W Broadwell-E
INTEL XEON E5 2683 V3 ES QGN5 QFQK Remarked as SR1XH 35MB 2.0GHz Processor CPU
Intel Xeon E5 2690 V4 ES QH2M 2.1GHz 14Core 135W 35MB LGA2011-3 Processor CPU
The motherboard is going to be an ASRock X99 (possibly Extreme6/3.1) and the memory is 8x8GB Kingston 2800MHz.
Is there any better performance/price CPU than these? I'm open for any suggestions, the price is not a limiting factor, nor the performance (I'm quite fine with OCed Xeon X5650), however I'd like to get a proper CPU as cheap as possible.
The 2690 V4 you posted has a very crippling flaw, its maximum uncore speed is 1600mhz. A lot of benchmarks will show the weakness of a low uncore including video editing. I was interested in the CPU listed and email the seller if maybe it was just a flaw and they responded what HWInfo shows is correct. For instance my 2683 V3 has a higher Cinebench score than the sellers posted score by 100. A chip that has the same turbo speeds and a newer architecture should easily beat mine, but I attribute the low score due to the fact that the uncore speed is so low.I'm going to be use it in occasional video rendering but the performance gain is not crucial as I'm fine with X5650@4.0Ghz.
2690's performance is roughly 1.7x higher than 2650L but it is nearly 3 times more expensive. Single threaded performance is irrelevant to me.
If you say that 2690 is the best choice or there is something better in terms of P/P, I'd go with it.
Can I run the RAM at 2800MHz or I'm limited to 2133(V3)/2400(V4)?
I did not think that rendering was a problem with low uncore. Since it mostly are the cores that is taking the most load?The 2690 V4 you posted has a very crippling flaw, its maximum uncore speed is 1600mhz.

As far as ram speed you will be limited to 2133 on a V3 Xeon and I believe 2400 on a V4 Xeon (not 100% sure on the V4). With a little BCLK adjustments you can get it slightly higher.
Hope this helps.
like mine, same core #8 is your cpu sSpec QExx ?any reason why 1 of my cores is much higher temps ? (this is when running the cpuzz stress tester for a few minutes and it's still running..
cooler on quiet but still decent
Core temp variance is normal if it is within a few degrees, is the screen shot above of all cores loaded? Your coolest core is 35 and your hottest is 50. A 15 degree difference usually does not occur, but you are beneath your thermal threshold.any reason why 1 of my cores is much higher temps ?

That 2690v4 is missleading by the seller I doubt it's even a 2690v4The 2690 V4 you posted has a very crippling flaw, its maximum uncore speed is 1600mhz.
