You can even undervolt this cpu to squeeze more juice out of it. I can get 5700pt in Cinebench R20 with a -0.090v undervolt on the core and -0.050v on the cache. Running a non-AVX load like Cinebench R15, it hits 3.05GHZ when all 18 cores are stressed. After the turbo hack, what's limiting these are really their TDPs.

When AMD releases exciting new products we're on them. We even borrowed an R9 295X2 when that launched and they didn't send us one. The issue is that AMD hasn't really released a new enthusiast grade CPU in years. How am I supposed to get excited about making a video about a 3-4 year old product? When AMD releases Zen and it kicks ass (let's hope) we will cover it.

MegaBoomeranger Because AMD hasn't released anything good, CPU wise, in years. That's also why Intel doesn't feel the need to make better chips than just 5 to 10% better than the previous gen.

Kazu Thinking the same. A test for its purpose would be nice.

Kazu depending on software your GPU might actually more important. Also, if you are reading large video files (for example RAW video) from a slow SSD that can also be THE bottleneck so it's tough to build a system where you can really use the performance of such an insanely powerful CPU

The SSD can be a bottleneck, if you CPU is capable of writing more data than you SSD can. It would slow down the CPU because the SSD could not handle more. That's what he meant.

***** On the machine I work with at work, the SSD *is* the bottleneck. I'm not making stuff up ;)

xXDahChubChubXx Lol it still is half as fast as the AMD FX-9590 and has less singlecore performance. T_T Besides the fact that you are comparing a consumer chip to a server chip, which actually use about the same amount of power, you also don't seem to know what TDP means. With the TDP the manufacturers specify the maximum heat output in Watts at which the CPUs can safely operate for a long period of time. The FX 9590 has such a high TDP, because they are specially selected chips with extremely high stability thus beeing able to operate safely at way higher loads than 'bad silicon' FX 8350s for example.

Razor Blade k

Razor Blade Wasen't comparing speeds and yeah in gaming and in single core the AMD would probably win but i don't care, i was comparing how much more grunt it has and how much more stuff is in it compared to the AMD chip and comparing the TDP

xXDahChubChubXx With the speed I just wanted to say that they are sacrificing on something to achieve this. Overall both chips have around the same processing power, but it is used in different ways. It's like you got a 600HP engine and you can either use it with a low gear ratio to move more load with less speed or use a high gear ratio to move less load with more speed.

***** I have not looked it up but i believe you

Rule907 It won't be any better than an i7 at games.

***** It won't be much worse either.

It should be much worse. Most games don't optimise more than 2-4 cores and this chip has a lower per-core clock speed. On the other hand, of the game scales well with number of cores, you be flyin son

Rule907 Most games aren't very multithreaded and if you look closely on the cinebench single core test he did the 4790k won by close to 20% so unless you are playing a very CPU intensive game, that uses a ton of cores, the Xeon would probably preform worse. Still on most games the difference would be unnoticeable I'd imagine.

sablanex That depends on the game. Some games can use all cores available, which means that each core will be running at the lowest frequency (2.30 GHz) here, while others can use only four, six or eight cores, which in terms of the E5-2699 v3, is a turbo frequency of just 2.90 GHz with eight cores. Compared to the i7-5960X, which can turbo up to 3.30 GHz with eight cores, plus the i7 has the more appropriate instruction set extensions, the i7 will offer better performance there.

Anthony Jones X4 860k, the bottleneck factory.

Absolutely not, the G3258 is a great CPU, id recommend overclocking it though, thats what I did. Plus I cooled it with Corsair Hydro H80i. Id have to recommend aftermarket cooling though if overclocking,

***** Depends on how you intend to use it. If you want to run the latest games you may run into trouble as some games actually check for more than 2 cores. Also the latest AAA games aren't going to let you run at high res with all the graphic options enabled with that processor even married to a Titan, but the G3258 will work fine at lower resolutions if you overclock it. I've been using one for the past year and played Borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-Sequel with no issues. I do plan to upgrade later this year once desktop Broadwell and Skylake processors are out and the pricing settles, but that's as much future proofing as something useful today.

@@jong-yk3gk That depends on what you want to use your systems for. Passmark software's performance tests and MemTest86 have some benchmarks which might be interesting to you perhaps. I think that these older systems are mostly good for compute-intensive tasks which have a lot of arithmetic operations per memory access and are used for short bursts of hard computing such as engineering software or math-heavy operations and computations - e.g. optimization and/or simulation or perhaps some games? For 24-7 day after day heavy computation, you're likely better off with newer systems due to their greater power efficiency - and that depends on your electricity rates. I would say that if you just want a big file server that's not heavily loaded with accesses, then get yourself an newer, single socket machine with ECC RAM, at least 32GB RAM (64GB likely better) and loads of slots for 3.5" drives. Ideally, you want hot-swap tool-less slots that let you slide the drives in and out. If you get an older machine for this, I recommend going with a single CPU socket to save energy. Best

Discovery

S666G666 The Kingston ECC RAM does not support XMP, and all new consumer grade RAM and motherboards use XMP to overclock.

Kevin Stampe Overclocking using XMP is redundant. You could simply manually overclock.

S666G666 xeon chips are locked so you cannot do a traditional multiplier overclock and I believe the ECC RAM would have issues as it is not very overclock friendly. xmp and manual base overclock deal with the bus and affect everything, ECC would possibly throw errors and/or result in the system not booting

Jacob R With newer chips you can separately overclock the CPU strap, without changing the base clock (I think with Xeon chips as well). So changing the CPU strap will not overclock the ECC RAM.

Just for the record I wasn't acrually going to build this. It would be like a $10,000 machine.

***** It's low power for stability and longevity. By far and large the killer of CPUs is heat and increasing voltage stresses the silicon on a molecular level which thus increases heat as you overclock. So having highly efficient CPUs work less and spread it across many cores, you allow for example a 10 core 2.1Ghz processor to work just as well as a 4 Core 4Ghz processor and still be better at software optimised for many threads. Especially take into consideration that your gaming PC isn't truly at 80-100% load as frequently as a workstation or server which can have hundreds or thousands of users on it on a 12 or even 24 hour basis. EDIT: Consider a networking server in an office of 30 people. You could have 30 computers at $800 each, or 2 computers at $5,000 each that everyone connects to via cloud computing.
