Hey Guys, Just got my MSI X58 Pro-E Board and the Xeon X5650. After I got the system to post, I tried to boot from my SSD with windows 10 installed. The system detected it as a drive but i couldnt boot from it (Please select a proper boot device bla bla). Then i tried my Hdd with the same windows install and it work fine.

Ok I just installed another CPU (x5650) in my Dell R510 and windows task manager is only reading the first CPU (another x5650). All 24 threads of both CPUs are showing up in Device Manager and I have already set the number of processors to 12 in System Configuration. Please Help!!!

A Potential Dual-1366 Machine
wpirobotbuilder posted a blog entry in Personal PC/Storage/Infrastructure/Network
In terms of raw performance, you can pick up some older dual-socket CPUs that'll beat out modern quad cores at the same price point (though they'll use more power). The build will probably be a ZFS storage box at first, and if I upgrade later on I might use it to host virtual machines or as a computing node or something. Specs: Intel x5650 @2.66 GHz (x2) - Each one consumer about the same amount of power as a 4670K and has the same raw performance (though much less performance per clock) 24GB DDR3 1333 ECC Memory (3x8GB) (x2) - The motherboard I'm looking at has 6 slots, and supports up to 96GB of memory. However, 96GB of registered ECC memory would cost an arm and a leg, and I found 24GB kits for relatively little, so I'm going with 48 to fully populate the board. For a ZFS build, a lot of RAM will make it speedy, and an ESXi machine will help with VM hosting. ASUS Z8NR-D12 - I ended up not being able to find a Z8NA-D6, but Newegg is selling this model for $200. What's more, it's being sold from a reputable reseller with some RMA support. Unfortunately it limits the cases I can install it in. RM 850 - It's got two 8-Pin CPU connectors, which are required for the motherboard I'm using. I'm looking for one with less wattage, and the Seasonic 520W might be one (I'm looking for confirmation). NVidia GT 520 - The board doesn't come with a graphics adapter, and I have one lying around. I'll probably pick up an LSI 9211 if I end up needing more than 6 drives. The drives will probably be WD Red or Seagate NAS, my research shows little reason to choose an SE over a Red, with the exception of peak performance. However my intention is to have a lot of data hit the cache first before going to the disk, so the performance doesn't matter as much. If the system performs well enough, I might pick up an Intel I350-t4 (4x1Gb) or an Intel x540 (10Gb NIC). A network iSCSI target for game footage, video editing, backups will help a good deal if the array can push upwards of 300 MB/s. I need an SSI EEB case. A full tower ATX seems like a waste, so I'm looking at the GD07 from Silverstone. I might go rackmount, but I'm having trouble finding a rackmount case with SSI EEB compatibility. Here's a 2U one from Norco. A 1U would be ideal but is much harder to find power supplies for (and is also much louder). On the ASUS data-cke-saved-href="http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/socket1366/Z8NR-D12/Manual&QVL/Z8NR-D12_memory_QVL_20121203.pdf">QVL these 8GB dimms are listed: These models all have the same model: KVR1333D3D4R9S Since the Kingston part is a kit of 3 dimms, am I right in saying that the memory is compatible with the motherboard, officially? I believe it is, since the end of the Kingston part number seems to indicate the # of dimms and the total kit size, while the Asus QVL only specifies dimms. EDIT: No more ASUS Z8NA-D6. Can't find it anywhere, and the new one I'm looking at is $130 cheaper, and supports twice as much memory. The original case I was looking at from Norco isn't listed as compatible with an ATX power supply. If I end up using this system as an ESXi host, then I won't need the hotswap bays as much. The new case I'm looking at has 6 internal bays for drives, which is more than I need. Can't use the GD07 or GD08 either. I wouldn't be able to use the drive cage. Got to find a new case for it. I HAVE BOUGHT PARTS: CPUs: Intel x5650 (x2) - Bought off e-bay, pulled from a working system and tested. Should be fine as long as they aren't damaged in shipping, CPUs don't die very easily. Motherboard: ASUS Z8NR-D12 - It's the only one I could find that was relatively cheap (Newegg is trying to shed these babies), and it came with RMA support and a 3-year warranty. Can't beat that. CPU Cooler: Intel BXSTS100C - It's meant for a 130W LGA1366 CPU, so it should be able to work with the x5650's no problem while being quieter than it otherwise would be. RAM: 24GB DDR3 1333 ECC Memory - It's Kingston, so I know they did the validation well. It's not directly listed on the Asus QVL (they only list DIMMs, not kits), however I got this reply from Kingston support, which I interpret as "The part is supported, but discontinued. Here's a better option". I only bought one kit so I could see if it would work (running a single CPU). If it doesn't work, I'll send it back. Worst case, I'm out $180. I'll take the chance, since the modules they list as compatible are about $100/8GB, whereas this is $60/8GB. If this kit isn't compatible, I'll go to town with modern, supported RAM. Then I can fill this baby up with up to 96GB (not that I need that much RAM for a storage server ;)) PSU: Seasonic S12II 520W Bronze - I don't need much power for this build, and according to the Seasonic website it has one 8-pin and one 4+4 pin CPU connector, so I should be able to use it with this motherboard. It's got power for 6 SATA drives, and I can use 4 molex-SATA power adapters if I need more drives. Seasonic confirmed that it should work: OS Drive: Adata SP600 64GB - Going to host the OS while I verify the system gets put together. Once I can verify that all components are working, I'll reuse it as a ZIL or L2ARC, or maybe for something else. Fantastic deal, only cost me $5 more than the 32GB version. For now, it'll be running in single-socket mode, which I believe I can do (more linked here). Once I get the memory I need, I'll install the second CPU. -
Hi, I am looking forward to my first PC build and I would like to go with something cheap, suitable to get my hands on building a PC, overclocking and overall tinkering with the system. At a later point I will upgrade to modern age hardware. For now I plan to do some light to modest gaming on this first build. I found an old Xeon x5650 for around $100 and also DELL PRECISION T3500 with 12 gigs of ram for ~$240. I plan to put the x5650 in there, overclock it to 37-4.0 GHz, replace the PSU with Seasonic M12II-750 and throw in an rx480. I know the mobo only has PCI-E 2.0 and the rx480 is generally meant to be used on 3.0 slots, but it looks like a big part of the internet says that the performance difference in gaming is not that big between 3.0 and 2.0. I only play WoW anyways (I might try some other games as well now :D). Do you think this will work, what will I be giving up and what should I expect from this system? I plan to re-use the PSU and the graphics card in my next build. Note: One thing that worries me is that I have no idea whether the mobo that comes with the T3500 supports overclocking, so if anybody knows, pls share. Thanks

I've had this build for a while but recently upgraded to SLI 970's. Also did a bit more modding with a PSU shroud and custom SLI bridge. It's called the H-Frakintosh as a mash up of H-Frame and hackintosh, it was my idea to make this into a hackintosh but haven't got round to it yet. Specs: InWin H-Frame Xeon X5650 @ 3.8 GHz MSI X58 Pro-E GTX 970 turbo X 2 12GB DDR3 (mix and match 6 x 2GB) Corsair CS750M semi modular PSU Crucial BX100 120GB SSD 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD Hyper 212 evo Silverstone FQ212 PWM blue/white fans (might get another for the cooler) Mods: Painted Ram heatsinks Painted CPU cooler Custom PSU shroud Custom SLI bridge Custom GPU backplate ATX cable extension Blue modular cables Pics:

Has anyone used the X5650? I'm looking to build an unraid/plex media server and this chip seems like a great bargain, but I cant find any good motherboard options.

I am looking for a replacement for my Dead motherboard in my i5 3340 System, someone told me i would be better off selling all the working parts and going with a Xeon x5650, And i need advice to actually buy it, From what i can see, there seems to be multiple types of Socket 1366 Motherboard chipsets, Which one do i need? And where is the best place to buy it? Also, What is the best rated (Using the toms hardware power supply guide) Power supply for ~£50? An ideal motherboard would allow a fair amount of ram (16GB+) Some PCIe slots (10GbE? or raid cards), Be ATX or EATX size (To fit in a standard rack mount case) and be cost effective. A good cooler would be active, Quiet and good quality. Overall budget: £400 GBP (More or less) (Needs to be complete, Though I do have DDR3 RAM)

I've been playing Destiny 2 for a couple of days and wanted to report that the games very good on this old platform. Currently playing 1080p 60 on high/very high settings with no stutters. I would like to find an overlay that works with the game so I can get an idea of system use and framerates though.

I was wondering if there is a way to overclock a dual x5650 set up. I just bought 2 off of Free Geek for like 30 bucks I was wondering if there was a cheap way to build a server/gaming build. They can turbo clock up to 3.06 Ghz but I was wondering if I could at least get them to 3.4 - 3.6 Ghz. I know that there is no way to overclock a server motherboard other than software overclocking, but I don't trust that. Is Clockgen reliable? If this doesn't end up working I'll just run it as a regular server/stream pc. I was wondering what the benefit of doing something like this would be? Are there any other programs to run off a server that could benefit me? I haven't done many things with server work.

The title is a bit misleading. I'm considering buying a pair of x5650's in hopes of building a 24 thread webserver for under $100. Servers have always been sort of an enigma to me, having only the slightest of resemblance to a regular desktop PC I've come to know all too well... and thus I've avoided them. Well I've avoided them for too long and it's time for me to face my fears and this hair brain idea is the perfect place to start. Pair of x5650's: $40 clicky clicky SuperMicro X8DTU: $40 clicky clicky RAM: I have 4 2gb sticks of ddr3 1600 that I plan to downclock to 1333; hoping that works. PSU: Should have a spare that fits all the holes. HDD: Have spares but intend on getting a 120 SSD if this works. Case: I have cardboard in the basement. My question is... 1. What issues will I run into in general? 2. I see 2 8pin and 1 24pin power connections; is it as simple as that? 3. It can't be simple plug and play can it? 4. I intend on using this to balance my coffee table and only SSHing into when needed; is a graphics card needed for more than setup or can I pull it out before it causes any long term problems? Thanks for any help.

Hey guys, I recently decided to upgrade to an x5650 from an outside 860. I bottlebeck my 1070 a good bit right now but am wondering how bad it will bottle neck with the x5650? My 860 is OCed to 4.0 using a Hyper 212 Evo, I plan to OC they x5650 aswell.

So I've been stuck for years with a 2011 quad core AMD laptop with integrated graphics, which really has been slowing me down lately. I've spent the past half a year researching into the world of budget PC building, and a certain mobo+cpu combo has caught my attention. My purposes are: - Music production on FL Studio (a lot!) - Some moderate video editing - Some light gaming I already have a GTX 760 passed on from another person in my family, so all I really need is a good motherboard and cpu combo, and ram, hdd and all the rest. My total budget is between $200-300, and I really want to get out the maximum performance/price. I have my eyes Xeon x5670 and an Asus P6T SE for around $150. It is a 6 core 12 thread which should be great for production, and it can be overclocked to above 4GHz, which I believe is enough to keep up with the GTX760. I know x58 is an old architecture, with PCIE 2, USB 2, and SATA 2, but I only want to use one GPU without SLI, an 1GB HDD is more than fast enough for me, and USB 2.0 has never bothered me too much on my old laptop. So it worth the buy for the combo, or are there better CPU + Motherboards for $200 or less that can outperform multithreaded tasks, still keep up with the GPU and have more efficient architecutre? I'm open to any recommendations! Thanks

I want to build a cheap workstation PC which I'll mainly use for video editing for the next two years and I did some research today and stepped over the Xeon X5650/X5660/X5670 which only cost about 30 - 50€ used where I live. I would have already bought one of them in combination with a X58 mainboard which a friend of mine will be selling but then I saw that the power consumption of these CPUs is pretty high. The reason why this is a problem for me is because I want to use this PC as a server/NAS in two years. Can I reduce the power draw to a point where it is comparable to a somewhat modern Xeon E3 if I lower the clockspeed and voltage and maybe even disable 2 cores or should I go with a Xeon E3 which is way more expensive right away? ^^

So I've been trying to get into streaming and with only having a 6600K., I've been hitting some bottlenecks with the CPU. My idea is to build a second PC to handle to encoding, and as well do my rendering for videos, but I haven't been able to find anywhere what is recommended for specs for such a PC. I'm also trying to keep it pretty cheap, and I found out that the x5650 seems like a viable option when overclocked. What are your opinions on this? And what should I pair with it to keep it cheap? Thanks!

hi every kinda new to the fourm Room and was seeking some help. I curenlty run a x5650 stock speed with a gigabyte x58a-ud3r motherbored 16gb Ram but when I 1st built this build i had a gtx 960 paired with the cpu and managed to get and overlcock on the cpu to 4.3ghz this is using a 600w seagate psu since then i have upgraed to a rx590. But now my oc dont even post or boot into windows so this requires a cmos reset and to run at stock speeds i was thinking this issue might be the psu or could i be wrong also sorry for anything misspelling or anything else haha

Hello forums! Longtime viewer but first time posting to the forums. I'm having some trouble getting my system to post, so I thought I'd reach out on the forums and see if anyone has had much experience with Evga X58 motherboards. I've been piecing together a build from an Evga X58 motherboard a friend graciously donated to me, and decided to try putting a Xeon X5650 in for a pretty cheap performance boost. I got the x5650 I ordered from amazon a few days ago and on testing it in the motherboard I get stuck at an FF post code with no beep indicating it posted and no video output. I will post the exact specs below but as far as I can tell everything should be compatible, as the cpu is specifically on Evga's compatibility list. I followed all the advice I could find online; updated the bios to the latest version, cleared the cmos by taking the battery out for 15 minutes, checked the cooler, re-seated the cpu. So I'm pretty sure I received a dead cpu, but I'm not sure if there's something else I'm missing. So I thought I'd reach out to the forums to see if anyone here might have any insight. I contacted the seller and they said they were going to send out another cpu, so I'll see if it works.Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm playing about with a server build project. I haven't got any concrete plans on what I'm actually going to use it for yet, so I decided to try and keep the cost fairly low. I've got a pair of Xeon X5650s, 24GB ECC Ram and a SuperMicro X8DTL-iF motherboard as my base platform, but I'm having issues that point to the motherboard potentially being faulty. With everything installed, both CPUs, all 6 x 4GB of Ram and a 780Ti I've got lying around for video, I get nothing, no beeps, no output to my monitor, just the fans spin up and stay spinning. When I got the board, it didn't do this. It was flaky, sometimes it would POST and get to bios, sometimes it would freeze before getting there. I managed to install Windows on it and run a couple of stress tests and CPU benchmarks to see if stability was the problem, but it passed all that with flying colours. After powering the system down for the night, it wouldn't boot the next day. I've gone through lots of different solutions to try and find the issue. I've removed one CPU with just a single CPU running in CPU1 on the motherboard, it boots first time, every time. This is with either CPU, so neither of them are faulty. I've tried Ram that's known to work from a different build to no avail. I've tried a different PSU just in case it was a power delivery issue, but no change. I've tried using onboard graphics, just in case that was affecting things for some reason, but again, nothing changed. I even put a new CMOS battery in, on the off chance that the included one was dead. After the success of finally getting into Windows and running stress tests successfully, I finally thought everything was functioning properly, but now the board seems completely dead with both CPUs installed, but with one it's absolutely fine. I've checked the second CPU socket for bent pins, in case that was the issue, but can't see anything wrong there either. If anyone has any experience with this board, or other SuperMicro boards with similar issues, point me in the right direction? Or have I just got a dead board? Thanks

INTEL DX58SO cannot overclock memory
BrunoRabachini posted a topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Hey, I just got a used Intel DX58SO with a Xeon X5650. I tried to overclock the X5650, but I cannot get over 3.1 GHz, I belve is something to do with the memory. When I tried to change the memory settings in the BIOS (all BIOS in stock settings, btw) from Auto to Manual, even if I put the exact same values as they were in Auto, the System just wont Boot at all, black screen and no signal at all. I dont know what is wrong with this MotherBoard, I would love to get at least 4.0 GHz in this thing, but I don't know what to do at this point. THINGS I ALLREADY TRIED: Change the memory (Hyper X 1866 MHz / Logic 1600 MHz) Change the BIOS itself (All three did the same thing) Change the memory Slot -
Okay so I have OC my CPU however, I will not remain at the OC base speed nor will it even reach the base speed when rendering. OC is 4.2Ghz and it tops out at 4.17Ghz and 4.18 even when rendering with 94-95% utilization. Furthermore, my BLK is 200 with a 21 ratio but on cpu-z it shows the following: As you can see my bus speed is only 209.76Mhz and my ratio is wrong. Does anyone know the why this could be? Edit: using an Asus x58 sabertooth motherboard

So im putting together a low cost system to give as a gift like a starter PC to my fiance's little brother is very much into tech and videogames but never had a gaming PC. Gonna have him build it too, i think it'll be cool. Anyways, i had an EVGA X58 SLI LE board i came across and thats what i decided to go with for this build, and everything i've read about the x5650 was very promising. I only had 4 sticks of ram to spare for a total of 8gb (Super Talent DDR3 1600 1.65v) and its configured to run in dual channel. Spent maybe 3-4 hours last night trying to get an overclock and i couldn't get anything stable worth the life of me, though admittedly im a bit new to BCLK overclocking, especially on x58. Figured out part of my issue was clocking the ram way too high and eventually got it to boot again, but even with vcore at 1.4v, any bclk over 190 wouldn't boot even if the ram was way low at 2:6 (final mhz of 1112 on the ram at that setting). Got it to boot at 185 bclk though but prime fails after a little while, though temps are in check even with a short 10 minute blast of p95 Small FFT. CPU has a 240mm AIO on it. Trying to up the memory frequency closer to 1600mhz ends up causing boot issues of course, so im just not sure what im doing wrong or how to proceed. Or if i lost the silicon lottery big time. Also running into an issue where if the memory is too low, it only recognizes as single channel and windows tells me it has 8gb but only 3.99gb usable (the appears to be hardware reserved). Getting it to boot one setting higher does bring dual channel back, but still says 8gb total but only 3.99gb usable. Its win10 64bit still.Here is a link to the album of my BIOS progression sorta. The pics from top to bottom go from basically stock default bios settings to what i got to get it to boot.https://imgur.com/a/PZouRAny help would be much appreciated. Originally wanted something crazy like 4.4ghz but at this point i'd settle for something modest like 3.8-4.0. I read the guide and plan on attacking this again soon but currently not near my test bench to work on anything and wont be for a while, so i figured i'd put my feelers out there to gather as much info as possible so when i try it again later, i'll be better informed. Crossing fingers.
