    DP Nehalem :banana::banana::banana::banana: from anandtech

    http://www.anandtech.com/weblog/showpost.aspx?i=554

    We were quite amazed, even slightly suspicious, when HP and Fujitsu-Siemens Published their SAP numbers. These numbers showed that the newest Xeon X5570 (Nehalem EP) series offer an enormous performance boost over the Xeon X5470 (Harpertown). After all, an almost 100% improvement at a slightly lower speed (2.93 GHz vs 3.3 GHz) is nothing short of amazing. Turns out that the real clockspeed is 3.2 GHz (2.93 GHz + 266 MHz turbo) but that does not alter the fact that these are truly incredible performance numbers.
    DO WANT!!

    and how often do you get to say "DP :banana::banana::banana::banana:" in a thread title at xs, I had to jump at the chance.

    Isnt turbo for only single-threaded apps? So the SAPP numbers are extrapolating from a single core? uh..

    Nope, not if you have a mobo that overrides the current limit

    Or, in case you are running stock ( ) you would be below the current limit anyways, meaning that turbo will be active as well (+1 for multi threaded apps, +2 for single threaded apps).

    What can I say, I love the quality of their boards..
    No, when I talk with anyone at SM I am quiet and a gentleman. I do suggest but nicely.. and they aren't ever going to do it..Just not the way they think..
    All their efforts go into quality and stability..
    I doubt they can even spell the word overclock!
