    Sometimes the frequency is printed on the chip much lower on the ES chips than with the retail ones. I noticed this while looking on ebay.

    I'm seeing a pattern. After watching your videos:
    - Comparing A Xeon 6148 With An ES Version
    - ZimaBoard Review
    - Movespeed HB7450 1TB review
    I keep thinking: That so cool! Why have I never heard of this from anyone else?

    Duuude. Where did you get that shirt?! D&D is the only thing I love more than computers.
    This is the best tech channel I have seen in a while. Thank you for all this useful content.

    This is the third video of yours that I've stumbled across this week. I've been thoroughly impressed with each. A definite subscribe, can't wait to see what else you put out!

    The QMS1 is a qualification sample of the 6148, so it will be no different than its retail variant. QS CPUs are the only engineering samples that I would go with. Earlier ES samples have horrible base and turbo frequencies and other possible bugs and issues.

    It depends!
    Some will have errors that don’t matter and others will be just headaches.

    Been trying to get a skylake LGA1151 Xeon working on a Gigabyte BTC250 motherboard, haven't had much luck yet, think you're supposed to use Coffetime software, but not sure.

    do some content on how you are going to use these chips and how many more vms you can run on these monsters and how many other servers you could consolidate into a server using these newer bigger chips - real world experience beyond the benchmarks and synthetic testing

      Thanks for the suggest. I’ll work on integrating these ideas into a future video.

      @@ElectronicsWizardry the only other thing i would add is to conc on basic affordable upgrades - things like raid0nvme arrays and bridged and bonded connections or using a 40g dual port on your ws to dual nas - 40g dual port cards are only like 30 bucks on ebay. maybe try to start to wade in to some smaller ai LLM models too? keep up with the good content!

    Is it possible to run two xeon same familly different model in a dual socket motherboard?

    • @ElectronicsWizardry
      @ElectronicsWizardry  Месяц назад

      Typically you have to use the same CPUs in both sockets. I think there have been some exceptions where CPUs can be mixed but its typically rare and not recommended.

    im considering to buy a i9 12900es.should i do it?

    • @ElectronicsWizardry
      @ElectronicsWizardry  4 месяца назад

      Yea there pretty fast chips and fairly power efficient if you keep clocks down. As long as the ES doesn't cause issues I'd go for it.

      That's interesting Geekbench detects QS/ES CPUs. Never heard of this before, and I'll try Geekbench next time I get some of these chips.

    Are you sure that the Intel Processor Validation tool really checks all instructions individually for faulty engineering-sample issues? Quote from intel:
    The purpose of the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool is to verify the functionality of an Intel microprocessor. The diagnostic tool checks for brand identification, verifies the processor operating frequency, tests specific processor features, and performs a stress test on the processor. --> from this description I am not convinced that all instructions are tested for correctness.

    • @ElectronicsWizardry
      @ElectronicsWizardry  7 месяцев назад

      I’m not sure. From the hi it says it checking it somehow but I haven’t check what exact instructions are used. I couldn’t find a better tool easily that would test all instructions so that’s why I used the intel processor validation tool.

      It’s probably just checking CPUID flags to see what’s supported.
