I am trying to figure out the value difference between an E5-2680V1 and an E5-2697V2 on the LGA2011 platform.
According to the basic spec sheet comparison (Intel® Product Specification Comparison) at Intel the architecture looks vary similar with the exception of the extra cores/threads and a slight bump in cache memory.
What are some other differences that you guys would consider that might make me want to use the V2 over the V1 variants in a homelab setup, especially considering the difference in price?
Ebay Prices:
- E5-2697V2 - $275.00
- E5-2680V1 - $90.00
Thanks!
