e5-2667v2 bottleneck?

I decided to set processor affinity (this was done with hyperthreading turned off, the cinebench score would have been high with hyperthreading). For all the test I got the same performance/fps. I tried with the first cpu enabled, another with the second enabled and one with all of them enabled. I got no FPS difference.

Yeah, with ecc memory, the difference should just be a couple frames. I am going to test the Radeon VII on another system. Do you think taking one of the cpus out will do anything even though I limited the cores it could run on so theoretically it shouldn't make a difference.

I've only had older server boards with multiple sockets, those would post with a single Cpu and a single stick of memory.  I believe you are also correct some will not.

In preferences tab in cinebench, be sure to set the number of threads increased when you enable another cpu.

I guess I was a bit vague on my post yesterday but I tried cinbench with hyperthreading on and once with it off. Remember, I have these two cpus watercooled (but not overclocked because the motherboard does not support it). So with hyperthreading turned off, I got a score of like 1952 and with it enabled I got a score of 2352 which is 100 points higher than linus's score with the same cpus. Maybe I am supposed to be getting a high score because of possible memory issues. Everyday I narrow the problem more down to one of the cpus having a bad memory channel, I might get another of the same cpu and try it.

I bought a new e5-2667v2 and swapped out the cpu in the first socket for it. Sadly, I got no performance difference. I really do not know what may be causing this performance issue, tomorrow I am going to use different ram to try and see if there is a difference. I doubt the is a problem in the second cpu because there is no reason for there to be one and it functions perfectly.

I enabled retpoline and I actually lost performance. I lost about 6 FPS on average in rainbow six siege. I am going to uninstall it and try messing with the ram.

I tried with some other ram I had, it was hjynix 4gb 2rx4 1333 mhz with four of them and I only had a performance difference of 4 FPS. I am now starting to think that it is the motherboard that is the root of this performance loss.

Seems your WIndows is been patched already. I guess I'm of little help if it's something with the mainboard going on or if it's due to its design.

I also wanted to mention how garbage my frames are in Minecraft if that says anything.
