Xeon E3110 oc - Quick test

[Dumo]

E8400 is hard to find?

Then here is an alternative....

Xeon E3110 on the left and E8500





Can you tell the difference?

[Dumo]

Test with air, comparo to E8500....


E8500 Vcore 1.584V






E3110 Vcore 1.60V

[ReverendMaynard]

very nice. What kind of load temps are you getting with those insane volts?

[Dumo]

Cpu cooler with TT Big Typhonn, Maximus Formula and Team Xtreme 6400.

Bios is idle @ 28C, not sure of load temp.

[TEDY]

excellent quick test....i knew i should buy xeon instead of e8400 :P

[shine121]

nice piece, are this cheaper than E8400 on price

[s0lid]

"C2D" Xeons kick ass
How much extra that costs compared to E8400?

[aoch88]

Yeah, I'm curious to know which one is cheaper. I thought Xeon has a different architecture, etc?

[TEDY]

same price here....

Hi Dumo nice try !

Could you please post some results in 3d benches just to know how xeon can manage with games

I bet there is not difference between E8xxx and them but could you confirm that please

theres no difference between the two.
they have the same cores, same IPC, same cache, same cache stage.
all the same.

the bit with the "Xeon" line on 775, is they are suppose to be higher quality CPU's.

sometimes its true, sometimes not.

Thanks Kunaak for answer

too late as i took one to try , find a few ones still available , not yet in France

and a link to some review " wolfdale Xeon E3110 vs conroe E6850"

very interresting indeed

couldn't wait no more as in Europe wolfdales prices still run hot !

Yeah mykou, since the introduction of the 45nm's the price has gone up by 35% because they are so hard to find.

right!

saw a guy on ebay selling E8400 for about 371$ while E8500 at 445$..

Has 10 of each.. damn and already sold 6 of 8500

maybe does he plan to buy some skulltrail with such money

dumo which one is which in the photo

dumo which one is which in the photo

Noticed that too....

[mrcape]

Wait, what's different in those boxes? I don't see anything but different lighting angle.

[jaredpace]

same here, chip on the right is tilted

[Dumo]

Left one is E3110

[keiths]

So, I guess if he ripped off those caps he'd turn the 8500 into a xeon.

Dare he try?

[dinos22]

Left one is E3110

yeah that's what i thought considering the placement of boxes in first post

wonder what those resistors/caps or whatever they are called do exactly

[Reefa_Madness]

dumo which one is which in the photo

If he was consistent, then note that the E3110 box was pictured first on the left, followed by the E8500 on the right. The E3110 box label was pictured first, followed by the E8500, therefore, it would appear that the cpu underside pictured first and on the left would be the E3110...followed by the E8500 on the right.

I'd say that the odds are 50/50 that I'm right.

[Dumo]

What's wrong with those 2 cpus?

I will take a pic before I freez it

[dinos22]

you could have just read his post to see which one was which you know

[dinos22]

What's wrong with those 2 cpus?

I will take a pic before I freez it

i haven't looked at my chips
will see what they are like

maybe would be good for Xeon owners to chime in as well
