Thanks for video! Glad to see v3 Xeon getting some love. Some tips - you can undervolt this CPU with modified EFI driver, bringing it to 3.3 GHz on all cores even under heavy load, simultaniously making it consume less power and making it cooler. Also that particular motherboard (X99-TF) have newer BIOS version with memory timings & memory voltage control. And last - you can disable HyperThreading and have a nice perfomance boost in games (about 3-5%). Best regards, NH.

The value of these old Xeon systems is getting even better now. I bought the HUANANZHI X99 TF X99 Motherboard per your recommendation and it is a quality motherboard. The e5-2678 V3 CPUs are running around $82 USD shipped now, that's what I paid anyways. The big savings was $48 for 32GB RAM, $48! DDR4 for my Ryzen systems runs around $150 for 32GB today and the prices are going up. I got the motherboard, CPU, and RAM for less than what a Ryzen 5 3600 CPU alone is going for. I don't game, I need the cores for video editing so this is a good fit for me.

[@andremesq]

Hey Brian! I'm still curious to see a 14 core E5-2683 v3 that you recommended back in 2017 when if costed $400. I wonder if the extra cores and slightly lower clock would make much of a difference one way or another. I thought about buying one myself, but haven't felt confident enough since I haven't messed around with that turbo hack yet.

[@titirize1323]

Best is little sku E5 2667 v3, For budget 2630 ou 2640 v3

[@thomassmith4999]

The best CPUs for your dollar in my opinion in this range for gaming are the E5 1660 V3, E5 2667 V3 and E5 2620/30 V3 (for extreme budget builds)... After the first two 8 core rockets I'd put the E5 2678 V3 talked about in this video. The E5 1650 V3, E5 1660 V3 and E5 1680 V3 have unlocked multipliers and will run 4ghz all day on air cooling.

[@andremesq]

@@thomassmith4999 Yeah, but the thing with those is that I'm finding hard to justify the prices they are going for (1650, 1660, 2667) when you look at the ryzens for that same price tag. The 2620/30 has the appeal of a lower price, and the higher core count ones have the uniqueness of those extra cores for things other then gaming. I've been curious of how the 14 core 2683 would perform since Brian mentioned it a few years back when it costed over $400... you can get one for less then $120 now. If I ever come across a sweet deal on a quality x99 board I may venture into it just for the sake of experimentation.

[@thomassmith4999]

@@andremesq Looks like current pricing on the 2683 is the same as the 1660. Doesn't look like much between them in multicore benchmarks but the 1660 is much faster on single core so would feel a lot snappier. I cant see games utilising more than 8 cores anytime soon. All the machines I have are cheap used Workstations so Ryzen isn't in my picture at all. My current thing I'm working on is a Dell T5810 as they have started coming onto the surplus market for cheap. You can do the all core turbo bios hack on them also. The next Workstation I get will be a dual cpu Lenovo P900, I'm just waiting for the prices to drop on those. I have some older Westmere dual Xeon machines and you still can get great performance out of them IF you are running dual high clocked cpus, Like X5687, X5680, X5690's.. Stuff like that. But the power consumption is insane compared to these more modern Xeons. Those Westmeres are too old now to keep up with modern GPUs in a single cpu system.

[@andremesq]

@@thomassmith4999 Sure the 1660 would be a better bet for gaming, and probably for almost everything else. But since I'd have to do a full build I'd rather go the Ryzen route in that case I think. The 2683 would be more of a hobbyist/curiosity thing But it is interesting you have brought up the Westmeres because I just got a reply and it seems like I'll be picking up an Asus x58 board today for a sweet sweet deal... I was thinking about throwing a x5675 or maybe a w3670 on it and see how it does.

What a blast from the past. Had this very same CPU back in late 2015. Suffice to say, that didn't last long. My use back the primarily consisted of gaming and photoshop and illustrator, with slight bit of after effects thrown in the mix if i had to make animated banners and whatnot. Yeah, this CPU didn't last long, it was a horrible match for my use case, given that all of it preferred single thread performance, which this thing severely lacked. Upgraded to a 6700k late 2016 which ended up being considerably faster for everything i was doing. High core count, cheap price does not necessarily equal good value, that's what this learning experience taught me. Don't make my mistake and be fooled to think the same.

Good video and tests, as always Brian! Wondering if it is "worth it" to buy a old xeon (v1/v2/v3) still as I have 16gb ddr3 1866mhz (2x8gb) in my z77 with a 2600k (@4ghz) now.. Will dual channel be much performance loss compared to quad? Want 8 cores (16 treads), I think new games will "need" that and good for multitasking. But lower clocks? 1680v2/v3 worth it and can it overclock enough on Chinese mb's? 4,2-4,7ghz would be nice! Or better save up and get a (used?) Ryzen 1700/2700/3600(3700), new b450/b550 and ddr4.. Costs some $200-300 extra new (here in Sweden) and from aliexpress we get $20-50 extra tax/customs fees.. Upgrade/future-proof and all that. What is the sound like in these mb's? much worse than newer realtek alc1200? Thinking that 4-6 extra cores even on old architecture would be "good enough" for me with a rx570 4gb (later rx5700xt).. I don't game that much and am okey with medium settings and max 60-70fps, nice enough on a 4k 60hz 50" tv.

Got 99TF+2678v3, not locking turbo, performance is more than enough to load my 970... (for now using only 1x8Gb DDR3 at 2133-11-12-12-24-CR1 timings, waiting for paycheck from job to get at least 4x8) 3818 points in Cine-R20 Sorry for my english, I'm russian

[@alertol]

And about why: I had old PC with DDR3-1600 (desktop one), so it was only ~$200 upgrade, there was nothing close to this performance at this price, at the local market.

im pretty happy with the 5675@4.4ghz with 48gb of ram(mixxed 32 of gskill 2133, 16 of 1866 patriot...what i had when i moved to this...) i have brand new, crosshair v-z asus sent, the reason im on this, my uncle "lent" me his old desktop(gave it to me), a i7 950 with 12gb of 1600, my chv-z actualy caught fire..but only after it was out of the case running an old backup cpu not my good one.. it got so hot some smc shit moved around on the bottom of the socket and the 4 pin removed itself from the board(4 pin next to the 8 pin eps connector) it was.. pretty spicactular...the board was stuck on a code that indicated the sata had failed...then outside the case.. fire... but..thanks to your videos..this x58r-ud3 went from an i7 950 to a x5675, 4.4 seems where this ones happy with 48gb ram installed, using a 280mm cryorig aio cooler that was already in use on my 9370. i have been thinking about selling/tradeing the chv-z and 9370 off to somebody, i am curious about the evga sr2 with a matched set of x5675's...and 96gb ram...the dual 1070 setup im using(he had an AMP edition, i already had a mini, his new desktop i built him is a 1700 in an asrock x370 matx board with 64gb ram, nice little board, specially with how cheap it was, anyway, its got a 1660ti in it, thats better both in power use, and perf, thought marginally, hes all about getting the power use down if he can get the same or better perf, the fact he can pack the new system in a hard shell suitcase and ship it over to the philipines when he and his wife go for their yearly visits(once this shit is calmed the fuck down), that was part of his desire to build a small system he could take back and forth that would be a major upgrade over all of the systems he had at the time.. and it is...once the next gen chips come out hes gonna get the 4600 apu model most likely to swap for the 1700(asrock say the bios will be updated for it), for his needs that will be a noteworthy upgrade, then i will start looking at a ryzen board and some ddr4... really should trade/sell the brand new crosshair v-z asus sent me(retail kit) and 9370...

[@gordonyeoh8255]

May I know if buying used/refurbished motherboards or CPUs is a good idea?

[@psionx1]

$167.83 may be cheap for a xeon motherboard but it's no budget option when newer boards can be found for less than $80. even if the ram is cheaper it's also slower and you take a big performance hit for running slow ram on heavily multithreaded systems.

[@mmmichael655]

I am looking to upgrade from a Xeon x3470 to this bad boy but I am skeptics labour the motherboard quality especially the vrms

[@DmitriyKrivtsov]

I would definitely get something like 2697v3 ES for my server/render machine if only I haven't had a dual 2689 monstrocity with 8 channel memory since november. For gaming I'd go with r5 3600(x) as it like a 100 USD difference with xeon platform

[@seanthomas2906]

Yet again Tech Yes citizens:Xeon&on. Good on ya mate. And thank you

[@I.am.Bananaman]

I would have liked to see some workstation type bench marking. Like the xeon set up with a rx 5700 xt encoding a 15 min movie in 1080p in h.264 or h.265 in Da Vinci resolve or doing that while also playing a game? The Aussie $ is currently in the toilet, so I won't be buying anything for the next 6 months until the global situation settles down, and the USA looks like it's only just starting it's problems.

Or you could buy a 1600 AF for $85 and get similar performance with a modern platform with modern features with an awesome upgrade path down the road.

[@zodiacfml]

Saw a video from another channel which went through multiple Xeon V3s, I say the 2620 v3 takes it. More cores could be nice for rendering for hours daily but the 2620's performance in games is not far from the more expensive, multi core Xeons

[@mrich70]

Actually, I think where we are as far sa games are concerned, the E5 2640 is the best way to go. 8 cores 16 threads is the sweet spot!

[@PacketWrangler]

E5-1650v2 is another good prospect. I rescued an older HP z620 from heading to the dumpster - the c602 chipset isn't sexy like the x79, but it'll still perform.

[@wrkgstiff7147]

So the motherboards, Jingsha, HUananzhi or Killsre BIOS.... can they bifuricate? One of the compelling reasons for one of these sets is the cost of course, but the pcie lanes. Adding more storage via nvme adapters is also compelling. Any thoughts there?

[@mactv8823]

2022 i finally got a new old 2678v3 pc with 1050ti for only $260 total. im so happy!

[@BlazeElPadrino662]

Cool! But did you know that you can get the maximum turbo multiplier at all times if you undervolt the CPU? There are modded BIOSes that can lower the CPU voltage up to 100 mV, so the TDP won't be reached as often. If you already need to do the Turbo Unlock mod then the undervolt one is a must! Best regards!

[@iamthebest22]

I made my order before you made this video, couldn't wait anymore, now doing the wait. I'm wondering if you could be willing to do a test on the released Jingsha Dual 2011-3 motherboard, it supports the E5-2678 V3, I wish I had known about it before I bought the huananzhi motherboard because I could have started with 1 CPU and then later add in a second 2678. Through other videos I've seen looks like the 2678 v3 is on par with the Ryzen 2700X. However I am excited because of the following reasons: 1. I currently have a Am4 motherboard that supports the 3950X (it's using the 2400G right now), so when prices go down on the 3950X I can swap that in. 2. I will be getting the Jingsha motherboard (have to get a new case too though) and start with one 2678 V3 and then through other videos I've seen, it looks like the DUAL/TWO e5-2678 v3 is close to performance in terms with the 1950X or 2950X(possibly 2970X). So later I can just get another 2678 V3 and add it in. 3. As you've mentioned, once the e5-2699 v3 goes down in price, I can just buy two of those and swap them with the 2678 v3 on the jingsha and I would get performance that could exceed the 3950x, but potentially cheaper, and the 2678 could just go back to the huananzhi motherboard (Or I could mix one 2678 with the 2699 on the Jinsha Motherboard if it supports mixing those two). It's literally win win, good thing I didn't go for the i9's and went for AMD and Xeons, so much upgradeable paths for a low/good price, thanks man! P.S. here's the Jingsha Dual CPU motherboard if you're interested. www.aliexpress.com/item/4000619561176.html?spm=a2g0o.cart.0.0.7c103c00FIrDht&mp=1

So.... I ended up with an Intel i7 9700F with 8-cores/8-threads... how's that going to hold up for gaming in the next few years... I suppose the closest competitors would be 6-core/12-thread CPUs?

[@rdsii64]

Love your channel bro. I'm all about the cheap power. Right now I only have one computer. It uses a pair of E5-2680's and 128 gigs of ECC DDR3 1600 ram. I built this for dirt cheap. You gotta love Ali Express. Its my gaming rig, my emby server, (I don't like plex) my 4k editing rig, my disc ripper, and so on. This thing is a PURE WORK HORSE and lighting fast at anything that likes many cores. Its not that great at single core stuff, but plenty good enough. You don't build dual xeon behemoths if single core performance is priority anyway. Now after seeing this video, I'm going back to the well and start saving for a second box. I want to offload my media server to a dedicated machine.

[@pepperbean243]

You should try to test everything with vulkan, because that API does a better job w/ higher core CPUs for gaming
