Hi,
I am struggling to find enough information to make an educated choice as there is not many bench marks for quad socket systems. As x265 encoding is NUMA aware, are 4 x E5-4650 v2's better for encoding x265 then 2 x 2680 v2's? When I looked at the PassMark listing for Multi CPU's I was a bit confused. I know there is some overhead cost for 2P and 4P systems but the numbers seem crazy low.
I have a bit of an opportunity to change things up if I want and after this I might be stuck for several years with what I have. I have been mulling over this for months and I need to pull the trigger or just forget about it.
On the PassMark website I couldn't find scores for the E5-4650 v2 so I guessed based on the 2670v1, 2670v2 and the 4650v1 and figure it's about ~14,000.
On ebay.ca right now, the E5-4650 v2's are about $300CAD. I had considered going with a Ryzan (TR) but the benchmarks I saw they seem hindered in x265 encoding.
Thanks for your time,
Seamus
