Greetings.
I've searched a lot in Google, but I have not found any specific information.
Currently I have an i7 4930k @ 4.375GHz (BCLK to 125)(CPU Strap 125) (5 years old)
Fixed voltage at 1.33v. No problem at this time.
Now I was thinking about installing a Xeon E5-2697 v2 because it seems to be compatible with my Asus p9X79pro motherboard.
I work with 3DS, vray, unreal ... and some gaming (Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3/4, Witcher 3…).
The questions I have for this wise community:
1 Does the Xeon E5-2697 v2 support BCLK at 125 (CPU Strap 125)?
2 What voltage could it need to get 4.375GHz? (I know this is a lottery).
3 Can each core work at the same performance as my 4930K with OC?
4 Is it worth to pay € 350 for this used CPU?
My idea is to have more total power, but at least maintain the same power per core (so that 1-core applications do not go slower than with the 4930k)
My calculations:
The 4930k with BCLK 125 (CPU Strap 125) (for 5 years and still works perfectly) fixed 1.33vcore
- Normal 125x34 = 4250 MHz
- Turbo 125x35 = 4375 MHz (can put more multiplier, but don´t wat to put more vcore)
Xeon E5-2697 v2 with BCLK 100 (stock)
- Normal 100x27 = 2700 MHz
- Turbo 100x35 = 3500 MHz
If it admitted BCLK to 125 and CPU Strap 125 (vcore?)
- Normal 125x27 = 3375 MHz
- Turbo 125x35 = 4375 MHz
I know I can not touch the multiplier, if it only admitted BCLK to 125 (CPU Strap 125) I would have more total power although the same per core.
Thank you!
