Fake and g@y...
Oh, and GL finding a mobo...
I doubt an established seller would kill their rep over $1k. meh. Too bad you couldn't find a board to put it in.
It's not a fake. The guy has been selling ES for years. I believe he is connected or works for a Taiwan mobo manufacturer and gets these samples from intel to test their mobo and then resells them on ebay. The problem is... where to find a mobo?
I actually would bet if this guy has an ES hookup he could dig up a 2011 if you asked nicely$$.Quote:

it looks real
That chip is real
How does he get away with this?
that would be my question too other than hes not in the US, prob much harder for Intel to press charges or track it
If he can get CPU's, then im shure hes able to get in hands and sell Socket 2011 motherboard also from manufactuerer hes affilated with.
He's the real deal, I've bought 2 Extra Special CPU's from him before :)
same here, it's real but the question is?Quote:

Im a noob, but why is the clock speed so low?...and is this 22nm?
found new Intel Sandy Bridge-EP 1.6GHz 8C/16T/Cache=20M ES(Engineering Sample) LGA2011 on ebay :eek:
it has 8 core and 16 threads + 20MB cache
http://cgi.ebay.com/Intel-Sandy-Brid...item4aabd3886a
almost 1400 USD price
but it has free shipping for the 1400.00
this 8c/16T Es lga2011 it is coming out retail even ? i hope so
My guess is the 8c/16t's will be E7 Xeon's with locked multipliers and lower clocks than the Desktop SB-E's (6c and 4c.)
As there is no competition on the market right now, there won't be any 8C/16T for desktop from the beginning, check the roadmaps.
Q19D is a A1 Sample, there newer Samples out with B0 Stepping and 3GHz (3.3GHz with Turbo) @ 8 Cores / 16 Threads and 20MB L3 (TDP 150W).
SPEC QA91 (Xeon EP Sample)
No, most Engineering Samples are locked. Only the samples for XE or K CPUs are unlocked.Quote:
