That's pretty much irrelevant to the main streamers out here, the xeons are server type CPUs and maybe less than 1% of Toms regulars will even be interested in those CPUs.
I disagree. Many PC hobbyists/enthusiasts end up in either software, hardware or IT roles in their career. These jobs revolve around higher end servers.
I wonder why that one is stickied in the Systems forum instead of CPU forum with the AMD one. Probably why people don't find it as easily.
lol, i didn't know it was there. i thought that people don't post in that since intel hardly ever does anything interesting.
I find it all interesting, but people tend to root for the underdog, as do I. Lately though with the technology shift Intel themselves have become the underdog in mobile computing.
