Purchased two of these to stick in my SR-2 board. For never ever owning Xeons just before it was both familiar and however, new at the identical time in terms of what to expect compared to other processors. Each worked and booted up just fine and have continued to hammer away like champs. Speedy at stock and have handled overclocking with typically, minimal fuss. Can push them to almost four.0Ghz on air just before a lot of instability (though I rather chalk that up to the SR-two board). Running Megahalems on them with two 120mm YateLoon push/pulls. Idle temps at stock had been about 19-24C - extremely cool. Load was possibly, low 30s. Exceptional at handling temperatures.Now that they are overclocked to ӯ.7Ghz Ƒ.31v from stock ӭ.25v). they nonetheless run exceptionally effectively for such a increase. Commonly low 30s idle and mid-60s under load, even though the hot side of the SR-2 will throw them into the mid 70s. Nonetheless, these are in a normal space with non-AC ambients. None! They're a tiny a lot more than the classic i7s in price but for an SR-2 owner, there's small else in the way of choice! Decently priced with no hitting that price-speed ramp. Extremely overclocking friendly with typically tiny fuss at all (it is my very first time, nonetheless I went really slowly and learned a lot). Still a fantastic value but if you're looking for sheer # of cores productivity, the six-core E5645 is lastly coming down to reasonable levels it appears. If I were to rebuild again I might think about those too. |

I just cannot look to overload this processor employing Hyper-V and VMM, it is just an great Processor, the Dynamic Parking of every single Core when not necessary is extremely great. I seldom am able to get these processors to perform past 10% Utilization. None Noticed |

Supposedly very rapid and not that high-priced. They are obtaining some compatibity problems with a motherboard that is supposed to assistance the Westmere series. Regardless of updating the bios, and trying seemingly every thing else, all either Tyan buyer service or I can believe of is that it need to be a compatibility problem. I tried to do a quick search of any motherboard firm that tends to make boards that expressly help this secific processor, but I still have not found any yet. Rather than wait to eith find one particular that does, or wait untill additional bios revisions resolve the difficulties, I will most likely just RMA these and get the E5630s. They supposedly have fewer compatibility concerns. |

runs cool. added cache is good. 32nm fabrication is wonderful. and seriously quickly when pushed up a bit. easily make this chip go to 3.three 19 multi. got this chip for 140 bucks from an individual on the list. to my delight place it in my asus rampage III and took her all the way to four.2 on air @ 1.25volts. mainly because of that I will never ever get a non xeon chip when going intel ever once again. this is a fantastic chip and I got fortunate for these who are worrying about concerns with bios I can tell you that there are no issues posting out of box with asus rampage III. as soon as I can this chip will be going on water. |

I put a pair of these in a supermicro based workstation machine and was quite content with their overall performance. As other individuals have talked about it doesn't come with a heatsink but with the amount of heat these throw out you probably wouldn't want stock cooling anyway. After less than 10 days of up-time my machine refused to boot/post/give any beep codes and attempting these procs in one more board didn't operate. Not certain what occurred but I'm not going to blame Intel for it. As often, neweggs RMA saves the day. If lightning strikes twice and my procs are rendered into pricey stencils once again then I'll be far more concerned. Till then I nevertheless think about these major picks for their cost. |

Runs comparatively cool under complete load.Shows Core i7 what it's created of (see comments).Efficient power user.Wonderful for dual CPU set-up. Lack of an included heat sink was not a Con for me...the default Intel offerings are inefficient and noisy...which is why I went with the Noctua Nahelem series cooler (not available at the Egg). So, I won't have a different unused heat sink laying on a shelf gathering dust. Operating two on a Supermicro X8DA6 as a video encoding workstation. I can simultaneously run two iterations of the program and each and every iteration makes use of all of a single processor's "threads". Compared to Core i7 at same clock speed on Supermicro X8SAX, just one of these encodes the same video 10% more quickly...and I can do two at when. Additional than twice the function in the same time....Good! |

Runs surprisingly cool. Operating multiple VMs (DNS, Exchange, SQL Server, Net Servers, and so on.) and CPU has performance to spare. Extremely expense effective. None. I would have liked to have the heat sink come with the processor. I did buy the normal Intel one and it functions just fine. (No need to get exotic.) Also, it is sort of cool seeing EIGHT processor graphs on Task Manager. (If I add the second CPU to my motherboard, there will be SIXTEEN!) |

32nm technologies. Large upgrade more than the E5520 ࿒% additional cache and a small speed increase) for a modest improve in cost. None. |

Fast @ stock speedsFunctions with Asus Rampage III boardsDoesn't come with stock cooler (intel stock coolers are inadequate)Snappy and responsive in Win 7 Locked multiHigh value point per clock compared to desktop procsRuns a small warm 30-35 degrees idling in bios with a CNPS10X Extreme coolerProcessor box could have been in far better shape I usually don't write evaluations. This processor impressed me so a lot, I was compelled to write this assessment.I bought this processor to overclock in a Rampage III Extreme. Following booting, I set all the voltages to their lowest settings for ram and CPU and turned off all the processor bells and whistles to burn in the system nice and straightforward.I am so amazed how speedy this processor is in Win 7 I can't bring myself to up the clock speed. The method is quickly adequate for anything I do with the added reliability of a Xeon.I speculate this processor at 4Ghz would be quite quick. |

Low-cost, 8 threads, dual-socket capable. While these chips are good, they do not include the heatsink as earlier Xeons tended to. Make confident to acquire a heatsink; it desires to be for the Xeon 5500 series chips. Common i7 1366 heatsinks don't cut it, either. |

Fantastic Efficiency on my Hyper-V /VMM Server. The Parking capability and cache make it tough to overload this Processor, it performs great so far. None |

Built a server for some light work and file storage. A bit of overkill. |

This is 1 of the less costly Westmere ࿀nm 3-channel DDR3) chips out there, but it packs a great punch on wide applications. It's reporting 2.5ghz below full load. The H/T is worth about 16% gain on my apps. With all cores reading 100%, it's making use of 255w in an Intel Workstation. For apps that aren't multithreaded, this is quick, but not actually fast. Intel Heatsinks (optional) are loud and so-so at cooling. I received 1 bent from the factory and it hit 95C, but even the "good" 1 was 65C under load. I changed the way Intel cools their Workstation item, and I got it down to 60C on the Intel CPU fan. 60C for a two.4ghz "low-energy" chips is not that superior, specifically in a 6U workstation sized case with five fans. For wide applications, this will thrash an i7-980X chip, but for much less $$. |

Cons: Price...but faster clocks are even scarier price
Pros: Solid performanceFast Comment:
I bought these when they were a pretty decent price. Be sure to get them on sale.These are typically high quality Xeon processors. I purchased two for use in an Asus Z8PE-D18 board (Win7 64) as a photo/video editing machine. Installation was easy (they just drop right in), and I had no issues getting them to work with the pre-installed BIOS on the board. Complex video renders and large photos (e.g., 16GB panorama) are no problem. It just crunches through it all.Apparently, these overlock well. I've never tried that, and the Z8PE board cannot do overclocking anyway. |
compared to a Xeon E5520, it's 6% more rapidly, 50% more L3 cache, similar TDP, all for 4% much more $. Had to borrow a Gainestown CPU to update the BIOS on a new supermicro X8DTH-iF before it would boot the E5620. Utilizing the E5620 in a Supermicro X8DTi-F to test a dual port 10 gig NIC, I get 12% much better throughput than with the E5620 - must be that cache? Not a big distinction, but from now on, I will look at the E5620 to be my preferred CPU.
