Dimitris Tolios Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 This is a Westmere architecture server, as in 7 years old. The combined compute output of two of those CPUs would bring you to roughly the multithreaded performance of a single 6700K or 7700K CPU, while the Xeon pair will be consuming double the power. I would consider this a "Ok" (not great) buy if it was for less than $400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
