Pero a ver, dejando de lado el precio final que alcanzaria algo asi (fuera de lugar para un pc personal no?) ¿que programas de los que funcionan en nuestros pcs sacarian provecho de esta arquitectura?
:dormido: Que bonito seria una placa que admitiese 2 PhenomII con un northbridge a proposito bien dopado de lanes pcie, y otra igual pero para 2 i7
habria enfermos para placas asi seguro, aunque si no se aprovecha con una unica tarea tampoco habria tantos.Salu2.

hombre, siempre seran mejor 8 cores que 4, no?
y encima con HT son 16 xDD
con los 48GB de RAM (ECC Reg. por supuesto) y 8 graficas en 'octo-SLI', pues para jugar al crysis a 1600x1200 xDDDD
Vaya trasto de placa.
Haciendo un calculo asi por encima serían los 600$ de la placa, otros 600 de cada micro + unos 100$ el GB de RAM, saldria solo en placa, micros y memorias unos 6000$ xDDDD -

…"
Pues el crysis por ejemplo si pudiera ocupar toda la capacidad de procesador con la fisica la IA etc seria interesante, que la destructibilidad del escenario y el realismo pudieran sacar partido de los 2 micros…....
Por otro lado, por ejemplo virtualizar sistemas y estar trasteando con varios a la vez, con una placa asi y unos cuantos discos tiene que ser una delicia.
Yo no veo claro si se aprovecharia o no, que si se aprovechase realmente para enfermo yo el primero, pero todo depende de eso de si "mi software" lo aprovecharia o solo el soft creado para estos bichos.
Mirandolo bien cuanto mas implantado y aprovechable este el GPGPU mas relegada quedara una placa asi para usos de servidor puro y duro.
Salu2.

Está claro que es un bicho para usos profesionales o para entusiastas adinerados que quieran hacer alguna burrada en plan rendimiento extremo y factura extrema de la luz. Para mi si pasa de 60€ ya es un pelín cara :D.
En el plan profesional imaginaros la potencia de cáculo de esos dos Xeon junto a las GPU mediante CUDA. Y seguro que no estamos hablando de un rompe-records, porque sistemas de este tipo no es algo nuevo.

I revive the thread,
Three years after its release, this motherboard is still a work of engineering, as well as a beauty. I was one of those who said, as well as some others imagined, that if I could one day I would have one. And since I am a person of fixed ideas, and a bit stubborn….........:ugly:, That day has arrived...
Fortunately, acquiring this motherboard today is no longer a savage price as it was when it was released. Nowadays and thanks to the EVGA B-stock program, You can have it at home for 270€, + 12 for shipping, with a one-year warranty.
Much less than what any high-end motherboard costs.
So I couldn't resist trying one. It is accompanied by two of the smallest Xeons, the E5506 without HT and at 2.13 Ghz. Let's see how far I can push them
My main idea is to compare it with my current 3930k. To do this, I have run a battery of tests on 12 Games, cinebench, and the always required 3Dmark and Unigine in its two versions.
If anyone wants to see any test included in that comparison, they can say so now. This weekend I will start assembling what has always been and will be…....... THE MOTHERBOARD.........
This afternoon I will leave you some pictures.
Regards.....
-
You will tell us how it works out ;D
-
You will tell us how it performs ;D
Of course…........ ;).
Some pictures....












The motherboard is really impressive, if you have never seen a dual motherboard you have no idea, it is the first one I have seen, my MSI Big Bang is XL-ATX, and it already seemed big to me.
It weighs about 2.5/2.6 Kg, it is amazing. The PCB is also the widest I have ever seen.

You must be having a great time, it must be nice to try to overclock two CPUs at once, besides those seem to have very low frequencies, you will tell us how it goes.

I found a site!!!!! ;D
Open your bets hehehehehe, a Sugus pack is up for grabs :troll:

Haha, you know that trying things out gets to me, and if it's a beauty like this and not a crazy price, then I'll try it….....

Best regards
I got a spot!!!!!! ;D
Open your bets hehe, there's a pack of sugus up for grabs :troll:
After a weekend of fighting with a koolance bay depo, until we understood each other. The team is now ready to install the OS.
The depo installation was mandatory, as the size of the board didn't allow for another type of mounting in the phobya :ugly:. Tonight I'll start installing and testing OC, I'll keep you posted...
Cheers...

I always liked that plate, let's see how it goes and some photos would be appreciated.

Well I've installed the OS, I'm writing from the computer now. The OC is crazy, trying to "center", 2 processors :ugly:, but well, we're starting to get to know each other.
For now 2.7, and they come to 2.13. So at first glance I would say I can do 3+ of them. But from now on comes the "hard part"…...xD

It's too late to update the Mod thread, but I'll leave some pictures here.


I ran a unigine to see more or less the distance I should cut with OC compared to the 3930 @ 4.9 with the memories at 2400. And it gave me 18 fps less, the Xeon at 2.13, and the memos at 800 (Without any kind of OC).
Will the SR-2 cut that distance?
What do you think??

I've always been blown away by this motherboard
jotole, if you're looking for other xeons give me a shout

Impresses the plate with the liquid mount. A beauty. I wouldn't give the use it deserves to a team like that, but I admit I'd like to taste it :troll:
-
Jotole go for 200 BCLK and the maximum multiplier, those make 4000 MHz, but you have to give it a minimum of 1.26v of vcore, set the memory to a safe frequency and set the UCLK to double the RAM.
What is the maximum multiplier for those CPUs?
Come on, you have to give them voltage, also the QPI or Vtt you will have to raise the voltage a bit.
Those may limit themselves by having a low multiplier and maybe that motherboard can't handle much BCLK, go for 210.

That's the idea, tinker with it to see what it can do against the most modern platforms
Best regards.

What multiplier do these CPUs have at maximum?
we're going to have to give them voltage, you'll also have to increase the QPI or Vtt voltage a bit.
These may limit because they have little multiplier and maybe this motherboard can't handle much BCLK, go for 210
regards
This one won't reach 4000 fjavi, it has a multiplier of 16x, at most I'll push it to 3.4, that's being very optimistic. I'm going for 3.200.
Although the ideal for these motherboards would be a multiplier of 21, from what I've read in the EVGA forums. I didn't touch it last night, tonight I'll go back to work with it to see what we can achieve.
Best regards..

If after answering I realized that those xeons had been overclocked too much, with a 16 multiplier you do nothing and even less with two at once, they should have a 19 and 20 with turbo, one less than the 920, but 16 is very little.
it's a shame because maybe they would have gone up well.

Jotole, I have to tell you that you are an animal :troll:. You are a piece of a beast, and perfectly mounted. The doubt is what you have done with the MSI.

Well they go up wonderfully fjavi, I already have the OC stabilized…...........xD, I still need to touch a couple of voltages, but I already have it mastered.
Last night I finished very late and I didn't bother to upload pictures, but what I do have very clear is that the motherboard is a real beast in OC, I thought that having fewer power phases than others in its range it would be little or nothing, but none of that.
I got some great bclk of 215, which for that multi of 16 puts the Xeons at 3,440 Ghz, that's nothing. 1,3 Ghz of gain is not bad for the smallest Xeons in the family, honestly I didn't expect to get there. I was happy with the 3,2.
Tonight I will start with the tests of the comparison I have prepared with the trio of titans and the 3930. But from what little I saw last night, there will be surprises in performance..........
.I will also leave you screenshots of that OC here...!!!
Best regards...
Jotole, I have to tell you that you are an animal :troll:. A beast, and perfectly assembled. The doubt is what you have done with the MSI.
Hahaaaaa, I'll take it as a compliment…..
. Thank you very much....!!Well the assembly can improve a lot, in fact it's a bit "that way", I have the hard drives of the team on the table on top of a box.........xD. I had to remove the hard drive bay to be able to put the rl, since the size of the motherboard was eating up the space of the depots.......
The MSI is still here with me next to the 3930, I won't get rid of that platform, and even less of the 3930 that I have so good........ ;).
For now, the memories that have the SR mounted are my Corsair platinum, so I have on the way some that match the Evga, some Corsair Dominator GT @ 2133 CL9, the perfect memories for this motherboard.
This is an experiment that I have wanted to do for a long time, but in the end it is most likely that I will stay with it too, even if it is to put it as an htpc............:ugly:
Best regards

This is the highest Oc achieved.

I'm working on the comparison, as soon as I have it I will publish it.
Salu2…
