I checked my motherboard supported cpu list it sipports the e5 2699 v4 which is a 22 core cpu and ofc i am taking i7 in consideration

hmm i see , pretty much yeah the the i7 5820k seems nice and oc as well . one more question i was checking ebay and saw some xeon es 18 cores cpu that actually have a decent clock and really cheap price. what do u think of that ? i know the legality issue as well as the motherboard compatalibty restrictions but other than that is there anything i am missing ? i mean it seems like quite a sweet deal

yeah i get your point but what about something like the Xeon E5-1650 v3 6 cores 3.5ghz and proved to be one of the best cpu for the price do u approve such a thing or there are any i7 alternative that will work better ?

keep it cool guys pls also @samiscool51 i wanted a xeon because i need some cores for rendering/video editing as it is my priority over gaming. beside my motherboard (Mpower) supports 3 sli so that should take care of the gaming aspect although i dont intend to use all three ofc . atleast at the beginning

why would u stay from dual socket ? is it a software compatibility issue? i use Matlab , 3ds max / adobe premier ,after effects,photoshop and little bit of visual studio as well as some light gaming some more than others . (engineering student with cinematography hobby :D) My budget is kind of flexible but the lower the better ofc as long as it does the job fast and smooth i think i will go with the msi x99a mpower and i7 6800k or some xeon 6/8 cores or do u think there is a better alternative ?

yeah i thought so but apparently some do http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty X99X Killer/index.us.asp?cat=CPU

hmm in that sense , do u think getting a dual socket motherboard like asus z10pa-d8 would be a good investment ? that was my original plan but didnt want to get a dual socket system while the newer socket was soon to be released.

Hello everybody So i was planning to get the msi x99a Mpower board and wanted to pair it with a xeon. Why do i get an oc mobo for a xeon , just a price(cheaper than most in my counter) and future upgrade ability.So i was looking around and found the xeon e5-4660 v3 and wanted to know if it fits. I checked the msi compatibility and it is not there. Moreover i found that asus x99 fatility boards actually supports it and they have the same socket and everything so shall i take that as a go ? also feel free to suggest other motherboards , cpus i want them for gaming and video editing/rendering one more question do u think it is smart to invest in a lga2011-3 build while the lga3647 is almost here ? thank u .

so u suggest the Mpower or it is not an oc socket as well ?

i thought the Mpower was supposed to be better !

so i was kind of looking to get an x99 motherboard and ended up with these two . can anyone recommend one over the other as i cant find much about the taichi as it is new. I might as well try some overclocking but i dont know anything about the overclockability of the taichi if u want to recommend and other x99 motherboard please do Ps. i will be using this build for video editing / rendering + gaming pls help !

The thing is my rig does the job but painfully thats why i am hesitant. For example lets say i bought an x99 or x10dax . How long would it take me to actually need an upgrade ? Also one major factor is the new cpus . I mean the lga3647 is huge , only god knows how much processing power can it handle

hello everybody so i was looking to build a new dual xeon build mainly for for editing rendering etc.. i was getting the x10dax with lga2011-3 socket. but after the lga 3647 was announced , i wonder if it is the smart/FutureProof choice to get this lga2011-3 board instead of waiting a bit. let me know what u think

ok thank u so much

hmm great thnx , so lets say i put in i7 5690x which is clockable i believe . will the motherboard support overclocking it by multiplier ? just a theoretical question to know my limits
