Here's a little teaser....

I was looking in this tread and finding it actually funny that people are all screaming for some 3d or super-pi benchmarks it’s not like the Barcelona is made for those kind of thinks it’s not desktop platform, so I’m not quite sure why people are interested in that. It’s not like you gone try and get some killer 3dmark numbers whit a xeon processor..

so there for I would love to see some more 3ds max, SPECjbb2005 or MySQL

also thnx dave and s7e9h3n for all the info

BUT......Here in XS we are Overclockers......We are not "Servers"....
I think it is the wrong forum posting things like you wrote.....We NEED OUR bencies....
WE here don't care about how it does in yourSQL, etc..... We need 3Ds and things like that you know....

Anyway to move the thread to 2cpu then?

But it’s not like you can expect some great 3dmarks numbers from a server platform if that was the case roll in a big LN2 tank and start benching some on a cpu cluster..

If this was the desktop version aka phenom I couldn’t agree more, but it seems kind of useless to me to see some 3dmark benches on a server platform sins its clearly not gone produce some killer numbers.. I much rather would like to see how it does in some server benchmarks to see how it hold its own compared to the new xeon line

lookmomnobrains: Most people at XS are very interested in hardware, overclocking, bandwidth, RAM timing, CPU & GPU benchmarks, etc... and they keep asking for more as long as someone here posts info about something new, like a new CPU type.

It's not like their logical thinking (like the fact that this is a server CPU) stops them from asking for more, because there's a chance that even a server board can tell us something about desktop K10 that we don't know. A WS board would be better of course. Besides, it's not like any of us had enough of K10 benches yet. For the most of us, this is the best we can get for now. The K10 users in this thread may have other/more reasons though. The possible results in this thread may also help some people decide wether they should get a C2 now or a X4 later, even if they don't get all the answers here.

I personally don't care much about most benches, I'm just interested in the new hardware.
I think you'll find the benches you asked for somewhere else before they shows up here.

Dave, S7 and all the other K10 users: Keep up the good work!
