Question about Intel Quad-Core Xeon processors
| Posted by dawhb, 05-25-2008, 07:00 AM |
| Hi guys,
I've spend some time today in reading about different Intel based processors. I'm learning fast (I didn't know too much about chips... untill now ) but there is something I still need to ask, since I didn't find an answer. So:
Which Quad-Core Xeon processor (from low cost ones) do you like more?
... Kentsfield, Yorkfield, Clovertown, Clovertown" (low voltage), Harpertown, Harpertown (low voltage).
From waht I saw I could guess that Clovertown is the most popular...?

| Clovertown is cheaper as its old. Harpertown is best out of that lot

| The Kentsfield is pretty cheap, but I'd much rather get a Harpertown as they're very good.

The lower-mid end of the E54xx series are good balance of performance & cost.

| Harpertown the best in Quad Xeon
but I would suggest you to go with AMD Opteron 2200 Serie
I used Quad Xeon to host 185 accounts , the load average is : 1.00 2.00 ...
when I switch to AMD O 2216 the load average is : 0.3 0.5 0.8 ...
with Xeon the load easly go up to 2 and 3 with AMD is always less than 1.00
