Just want to get everyone's opinion on what is the most cost effective e5-26xx v3 and v4 cpu right now. I am sure most people know what I mean by most cost effective. Btw, please only look at price for oem/retail ver, not ES or QS
seems like e5-2670 is the most cost effective right now for the v1 followed by 2680?
for v3 I was just checking around seems like e5-2683 v3 is the most cost effective? e5-2683 v3 | eBay
I find it interesting that even though 2683 v3 is significantly lower clocked than 2670 v1, the single and quad core bench are pretty much similar. and obviously in multi core bench the 2683 kills the 2670 with like 70-80% higher mark.
what about for v4?
tempted to put together a new 2011 v3 system. seems like the 2011 2x e5-2670 I put together recently already too slow .... lol
