Upgrading CPU's


Recommended Posts

Just picked up a pair of six core CPU's for my 'monster unRAID server' which currently has two quad core Xeon's totalling 16 threads, now I'll be moving up to 24 threads with these new CPU's. Its a modest upgrade, but the price was right and I've found that the extra cores will come in handy with plex streams.

Very good price -- a 35% bump for $100 is certainly an excellent deal :D

 

The pricing for these older E5 Xeons is amazing -- the same is true for the registered RAM modules.    You can build dual Xeon systems with 64GB or more for just a few hundred $$ these days.    Very tempting !!
