2x Xeon 5670 Performance

[_JohnB330ci]

So I have a deal for 2x Xeon 5670 and was wondering on their performance, as I can only find benchmarks for one on its own

 

Games I play are

CS:GO

Minecraft (200+ Mods)

BF1, BF4

WarThunder (It will run this fine I know)

Rainbow Six Siege

Project Cars
ETS/ATS

i run a dual E5620 setup , p much the same as yours just clocked lower , in CB they beat an I5 4570 (not shure what exact number , either 44 or 45...? ) 

 

think of those xeons like an I7 9XX , thats literally what they are 

 

hope that gives you an idea 

 

Edit , yours has more cores , 2c and 4t more respectively , so you are like an I7 920 but w/ 6c-12t

Here's a Cinebench R15 run.

 

Doesn't really help you in the area of gaming, but multi-core performance is pretty solid.

Thank you guys, its a trade for my current laptop, and I'm leaning towards it quite a lot if it doesn't perform worse than my current cpu (which one of them alone just performs underneath it) then I will probably make the trade.

get 12c24t for a laptop? fuck yea thats neat , does it come w/ a board? dual 1366 boards can be expensive (i got an intel OEM board [see sig] for ~80$ and that was CHEAP )

Somehow I don't think that's what he meant.  That would be cool though.

well i worded it poorly , but i think hes getting 2 xeons for his laptop , not to PUT in it , rather a trade

Sorry bud.  Reading comprehension.  Not my strong point.

The gaming benchmarks with one of those will be the same for two of those.

 

The thing is games don't use a lot of cores there are only a handful that actual even use 8 threads, so you will have one cpu just idling basically while the other does all the work, and because of the low clockspeed the performance will not be great.

 

It is a hair faster then an i3 6100 for gaming (quad core speed), but not by much.

At least for siege I tried a 4.8ghz g3258 vs an AMD quad core 860k, the 860 performed WAYYYY better, keeping in mind I did underclock the 860 for this test to 3ghz flat so I think it uses 3-4 cores.

Xeon X5670s are only $110/pair on ebay. How much is the laptop worth? You will have to spend buku bucks on a motherboard to support them.
