You know your a pro PC builder when you have thermal paste in your kitchen cabinet
xD
+Ido Tanne yet he apply the thermal past like a noob and not spreading it all over it.
+stylos951 You're supposed to spread it all over? Applying too much is worse isn't it?
+Ido Tanne "Pro builder" made a noob mistake on applying thermal paste.
not to mention his "overclocking" is something that an elementary schooler could do..
Just a kid with overpriced toys in my opinion.. no real knowledge or skill in here.
+Ido Tanne I do also have thermal paste in my bathroom, should I be worried?
Ha.
I used to have HARD DRIVE that WAS 16MB!!!
1MB of RAM was TOP OF THE LINE.
+n00b247 Reminds me of my good old 450 MHz Pentium II I had, daaaamn the good old days...nowadays even my fucking smartphone can outperform a cpu like that
+TheWuerstchenwasser no dude! Your smart phone is a lot faster than your good old day computer.
+n00b247
HA!
Now if you have 2TB hard drive do you have 128 or 256GB RAM?
+TheWuerstchenwasser my note 3 scores twice as much on the geek benchmark than my dual core 2.1 pentium 4 powered laptop. jusy sayin'
+n00b247 IBM used to sell HDDs the size of an industrial refrigerator w/ capacity of 5 MB.
And in 2021 x99 xeon became one of the most popular gaming CPUs :D
I have a 2680 V4 14c/28thread on the way. It will be a massive upgrade from the i5 3470 I built new....
I have this specific cpu but I have the better 2696 v3 which can boost up to 3.8 ghz and I was able to mod the motherboard to make it run 3.5 ghz base speed and 3.8ghz on all cores under full load with full 8 hour stability
Just built a 2695 v4 with 64gb ram, 1tb ssd for under £350!
These cpus are amazing for the price right now!
no, i just need it for ESXi and virtualization for a workstation. I paired it with 128gb of ram and 4 4TB drives in raid 5.
Not everything is gaming in this life.
@@davefroman4700 bro how much good is your cpu ? I'm thinking about buying that cpu for RTX 3080. I have 1080p monitor but maybe I can go above like 1440p.
I'm still using this chip in late 2019! There's a bug in these v3 chips where as you can run the turbo full time all the time on every core with a multiplier of x36! You simply need to remove the CPU microcode from the motherboard BIOS. With a bus of 103mhz, I'm running 3.7Ghz on all 18 cores. Obviously under 100% load though, it will drop speed. With all 36 threads at 100% and using Prime95 the multi is 24-25. Running at 1/2 of threads (18), the multi is 28-29. Running normally usage (AKA not some synthetic heat producer test), the cores all stay at 36 multi. It's very fast for an older processor that can be found pretty reasonable now.
Which motherboard are you using
I'm very interested in this cpu's i want to buy a xeon e5 2660 v3 but i don't know which motherboard would be good for doing overclock and turbo unlock :D
@@rampi7082 Using an ASRock X99 Extreme 6, Xeon 2699v3, 128GB ECC RAM
Thinking about finding a cheap one for my sabertooth x99 lol
You can even undervolt this cpu to squeeze more juice out of it. I can get 5700pt in Cinebench R20 with a -0.090v undervolt on the core and -0.050v on the cache. Running a non-AVX load like Cinebench R15, it hits 3.05GHZ when all 18 cores are stressed. After the turbo hack, what's limiting these are really their TDPs.
Thanks for posting this. I was wondering if the turbo unlock would play nicely with the 103mhz boost going to put an e5-2690 with the x99 f8 chinese board

I would like to know how fast it would encode a video file ^^
Kazu Thinking the same. A test for its purpose would be nice.
Kazu depending on software your GPU might actually more important. Also, if you are reading large video files (for example RAW video) from a slow SSD that can also be THE bottleneck so it's tough to build a system where you can really use the performance of such an insanely powerful CPU
The SSD can be a bottleneck, if you CPU is capable of writing more data than you SSD can. It would slow down the CPU because the SSD could not handle more. That's what he meant.

On the machine I work with at work, the SSD *is* the bottleneck. I'm not making stuff up ;)

*All I ever see are Intel products being promoted, why no AMD? Are you biased Linus?*
*0.0*
When AMD releases exciting new products we're on them. We even borrowed an R9 295X2 when that launched and they didn't send us one. The issue is that AMD hasn't really released a new enthusiast grade CPU in years. How am I supposed to get excited about making a video about a 3-4 year old product? When AMD releases Zen and it kicks ass (let's hope) we will cover it.
MegaBoomeranger Because AMD hasn't released anything good, CPU wise, in years. That's also why Intel doesn't feel the need to make better chips than just 5 to 10% better than the previous gen.
Rekt.....sorry, I had to.
MegaBoomeranger [ ] Not rekt. [X] REKT.

Lol it still uses less power than the AMD FX-9590
xXDahChubChubXx Lol it still is half as fast as the AMD FX-9590 and has less singlecore performance. T_T Besides the fact that you are comparing a consumer chip to a server chip, which actually use about the same amount of power, you also don't seem to know what TDP means. With the TDP the manufacturers specify the maximum heat output in Watts at which the CPUs can safely operate for a long period of time. The FX 9590 has such a high TDP, because they are specially selected chips with extremely high stability thus beeing able to operate safely at way higher loads than 'bad silicon' FX 8350s for example.
Razor Blade k
Razor Blade Wasen't comparing speeds and yeah in gaming and in single core the AMD would probably win but i don't care, i was comparing how much more grunt it has and how much more stuff is in it compared to the AMD chip and comparing the TDP
xXDahChubChubXx With the speed I just wanted to say that they are sacrificing on something to achieve this. Overall both chips have around the same processing power, but it is used in different ways. It's like you got a 600HP engine and you can either use it with a low gear ratio to move more load with less speed or use a high gear ratio to move less load with more speed.
***** I have not looked it up but i believe you
My favorite part of this video is when Linus goes to the cupboard to get thermal paste.
Hard to believe these were $4500 back in the day when they were released. I just purchased 2 of these CPUs for a home server just to play around on for the whopping cost of $85 EACH! Nothing like a 98% reduction in cost!
Now they are $35 on eBay! 99.2% off of retail.
This is amazing, dat CineBench render.
I'd love to see a AME render test at like 4K, using SSDs to eliminate as many bottlenecks as possible.
EposVox ssd is still slow, so a ramdisk would be better in the case of "Bottlenecks" but not in a real world scenario of course is just to see the speed.
Johnny Deep Well yeah, but ramdisk isn't real-world, like you said lol. I'd still want it to be applicable to a realistic workflow.
And I thought my new i5 was a great CPU considering I was coming from a G3258. Lol
Anthony Jones Better than the piece of shite that I'm using
Tipichounet WHat are you using G32020 lol
Anthony Jones X4 860k, the bottleneck factory.
Absolutely not, the G3258 is a great CPU, id recommend overclocking it though, thats what I did. Plus I cooled it with Corsair Hydro H80i. Id have to recommend aftermarket cooling though if overclocking,
***** Depends on how you intend to use it. If you want to run the latest games you may run into trouble as some games actually check for more than 2 cores. Also the latest AAA games aren't going to let you run at high res with all the graphic options enabled with that processor even married to a Titan, but the G3258 will work fine at lower resolutions if you overclock it.
I've been using one for the past year and played Borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-Sequel with no issues. I do plan to upgrade later this year once desktop Broadwell and Skylake processors are out and the pricing settles, but that's as much future proofing as something useful today.
I'm glad u did this, 5 years ago u bought a 5820k and now my rendering in cad is killing me because how slow the 6 cores is now. I'm looking at buying a 2698 v3 and a bunch of ram! 🙏🏿

I used that computer for a lot of years and it was amazing for SETI and video editing. I'd love to have two $4000 18-core CPUs today, but that would put the cost of the computer over $10k and that's more than I want to spend. It was nice to see these though, thanks for sharing. :)

***** he didnt mess with voltage so there's no reason to freak out.
***** Yeah, I see what you are saying but he didn't really put the CPU in any risk at all. In the extremely unlikely event that all safety features fail, that means that the CPU was defective anyways.

I wonder how intel feels about you guys doing this lol. But THROW THAT SHIT INTO SOME GAMES!
Rule907 It won't be any better than an i7 at games.
***** It won't be much worse either.
It should be much worse. Most games don't optimise more than 2-4 cores and this chip has a lower per-core clock speed.
On the other hand, of the game scales well with number of cores, you be flyin son
Rule907 Most games aren't very multithreaded and if you look closely on the cinebench single core test he did the 4790k won by close to 20% so unless you are playing a very CPU intensive game, that uses a ton of cores, the Xeon would probably preform worse. Still on most games the difference would be unnoticeable I'd imagine.
sablanex That depends on the game. Some games can use all cores available, which means that each core will be running at the lowest frequency (2.30 GHz) here, while others can use only four, six or eight cores, which in terms of the E5-2699 v3, is a turbo frequency of just 2.90 GHz with eight cores. Compared to the i7-5960X, which can turbo up to 3.30 GHz with eight cores, plus the i7 has the more appropriate instruction set extensions, the i7 will offer better performance there.
What's next? 128 cores?
No, 22 cores.

I recently bought a couple 1U servers with 2x14core E5-26xx and 128GB and 256GB RAM for less than $1K each. I needed some serious compute power for circuit modeling via optimization. There are some seriously good deals out there on older technology. Far better bang/buck for old servers.
What do you mean exactly I have couple systems myself I’m trying to put to the test one has dual e5 14 core, the other 18 core and I have titan xp but haven’t figured out what to test with yet and couple more systems as well
@@jong-yk3gk That depends on what you want to use your systems for. Passmark software's performance tests and MemTest86 have some benchmarks which might be interesting to you perhaps. I think that these older systems are mostly good for compute-intensive tasks which have a lot of arithmetic operations per memory access and are used for short bursts of hard computing such as engineering software or math-heavy operations and computations - e.g. optimization and/or simulation or perhaps some games? For 24-7 day after day heavy computation, you're likely better off with newer systems due to their greater power efficiency - and that depends on your electricity rates.
I would say that if you just want a big file server that's not heavily loaded with accesses, then get yourself an newer, single socket machine with ECC RAM, at least 32GB RAM (64GB likely better) and loads of slots for 3.5" drives. Ideally, you want hot-swap tool-less slots that let you slide the drives in and out. If you get an older machine for this, I recommend going with a single CPU socket to save energy.

@@trinpanapan2990 it seems that my comment aged poorly
Why did you try the overclock with the gaming RAM and not the Kingston RAM?
Discovery
S666G666 The Kingston ECC RAM does not support XMP, and all new consumer grade RAM and motherboards use XMP to overclock.
Kevin Stampe Overclocking using XMP is redundant. You could simply manually overclock.
S666G666 xeon chips are locked so you cannot do a traditional multiplier overclock and I believe the ECC RAM would have issues as it is not very overclock friendly. xmp and manual base overclock deal with the bus and affect everything, ECC would possibly throw errors and/or result in the system not booting
Jacob R With newer chips you can separately overclock the CPU strap, without changing the base clock (I think with Xeon chips as well). So changing the CPU strap will not overclock the ECC RAM.

***** It's low power for stability and longevity. By far and large the killer of CPUs is heat and increasing voltage stresses the silicon on a molecular level which thus increases heat as you overclock. So having highly efficient CPUs work less and spread it across many cores, you allow for example a 10 core 2.1Ghz processor to work just as well as a 4 Core 4Ghz processor and still be better at software optimised for many threads.
Especially take into consideration that your gaming PC isn't truly at 80-100% load as frequently as a workstation or server which can have hundreds or thousands of users on it on a 12 or even 24 hour basis.
EDIT: Consider a networking server in an office of 30 people. You could have 30 computers at $800 each, or 2 computers at $5,000 each that everyone connects to via cloud computing.
Peter Šori I don't really build servers or other things. That seems very smart I'll take that advice and go with 2 redundant psu's
I remember the day I went to render something on Blender with my Dual 12 Core AMD... it is something to behold. I can tell you though, games, run alot better on a machine with a higher clock speed and higher through put than a machine with a higher core count.
Ah the good old times, I actually came here after the Xeon Platinum dual cpu video of Linus after he said qoute "This is more like a future exercise to show that what it can be done in the future" and this E5 cpu was exactly like he said a future practice for Intel. By looking on the shelves today, we can easily find Threadripper with "just" 32 cores and 64 threads with the single core performance of the consumer cpu for around 1000$ max. Technology is truly speeding forward 👌.
crysis 3 with 4 way titan x?
xX_DYLM4N_Xx Linus only has 2
oh
I wonder if any game would give any sortof leverage for an 18 core cpu vs a the 5960k
xX_DYLM4N_Xx most games dont use more then 4 cores yet. Also 2.8ghz 18 core would probably lose to a 4.8ghz quad core in gaming
xX_DYLM4N_Xx i don't think so this is meant for more rendering and crisis wouldn't put any kind of that stress on it.
Douglas Gardner no games use 8
So, did all of those companies (intel, kingston etc.) send you all of that stuff for free or did you have to pay for it?
vidm96 Free of course, for them it's like 0,00001 dollar. Free PR! :D
vidm96 Sponsored. He asks for them, to review/ advertise. Whatever you call it.
vidm96 A lot they do get free, but often with strings attached. Sometimes they have to send it back. Also Linus and other reviews ask for equipment or a company will send them equipment to "review".
vidm96 I'm guessing this was a "hey show how amazing are product is and we will send you a couple of these for free". Either that or maybe he just has a good working relationship with them and he just asked and they went "ok".
danbholm slight exaggeration, but it is true that the PR is worth way more to them than the cost of the chip (probably in the $10-50 range)
Linus, what are you using as a test bench? Any other things you use that are most useful?
What video card is that? I see it in a lot of his videos and curious about the performance. I know next to nil about GPUs and am putting a system together. So far I'm leaning toward the XFX Radeon R9 380 due to budget and performance. Thoughts?
Damn we've come a LONG way in 4 years. This compared to thread ripper it just gets trounced.
Never seen Linus so happy lol
I do a lot of 3D rendering that is core-dependent... I am drooling over this chip, but choking on the price. For a render-farm, the output at those power-levels would be a major advantage. Same for any other super-computer setup.
How did they fit 18 cores on that chip? I'm guessing 3 rows of 6 :) Good video. love your stuft!
Handling a $4000 CPU, you might want to wear an anti static wrist strap! Thumbs up though =)
+GadgetUK164 I thought the same thing
+GadgetUK164 Not necessary if you hold it correctly. In fact, anti static straps are useless unless you know what you're doing.
+Patrick Challita Wouldn't it be useless if you don't know what you're doing?
+3D3LTAGaming who does something without having a clue? Douche
+Patrick Challita Umm... People who overestimate their own abilities.
I know this is slightly unrelated to this video, but I'd love to see a comparison done between Gigabyte, EVGA, MSI, and ASUS X99 boards.
That'd be a good video. Sort of like the Z97 ones they did.
Mr Fuzz Man Motherboards don't effect performance that much, it's more about their specific features. That would be a very VERY boring video.
The Pancakeanator But in certain applications, one board is going to be more preferable over the other (e.g. video editing, audio production, gaming, etc.) and it would be nice to see a comparison done so that people can know which board they're probably going to want to buy so they don't spend more than they really need.
Mr Fuzz Man It would literally be a video looking at spec sheets, ie motherboard a is better for audio production because it has x feature and for the most part, other than reliability and overclocking/bios the motherboard does not matter. Need video editing? strong cpu, audio production? high end sound card, gaming? high end dedicated gpu
ASRock?
8 yrs later, now I got dual Xeon E5 26xx for over 100 bucks and its still powerful
Watching this after the X series has been announced. And I can't stop thinking how in 2 years the performance of fairly (?) high end server chip has made it's way into a consumer platform. *WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE!*
imagine this on a server board with 4 sockets for 72 cores and 144 threads and 1 tb of ram (server motherboards support that) aww yiss
Mattis Cuypers omotayo olayemi Check my channel thank you :) hope you like the videos
Mattis Cuypers finally i can play minecraft
1000earc How about this?
ark.intel.com/products/84685/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E7-8890-v3-45M-Cache-2_50-GHz
Supports 8 of these and 1536 GB of RAM

*reads title*
*laughs in Threadripper*
This guy^ he gets it.
Do you really keep thermal paste in kitchen cabinet?!
Hey LT. Since you built the z10pe monster I want to ask you a question. Is the board only capable of supporting the E5 or can it support the i7's like the 5930k? I want to build a dual socket beast, 3x sli 980 or Titans(maybe quadro) for 4k video editing, but if the dual socket 2011-3's won't support the i7 family and only the Xeon family then it's not going to work for me
Its crazy how my 8 core 3800x is almost as fast as this 22 core. WOW.
Not even close for workstation workloads
On one hand CPUs are getting faster and faster but on the other hand the software are getting slower and sloppier. I bet if the software can be optimized down to a Boolean level (like converting VHDL or Verilog code into the actual circuits in FPGA or ASIC chips) then an old school 50 MHz clock will be more than fast enough for most of the computer intensive tasks we have today and we run our computer on I don't know a regular 9 volt DC power supply or something.
yes sadly, programmers are lazy for the most part with the fast processors and massive memory now currently available. Many programmers would not be able to program in assembly if they had to, and only use high level language compilers that are often very inefficient at making code.
It is 4 times the performance of a X5650 because the Cinebench uses a dual X5650 for reference. Not twice the performance as mentioned by Linus.
Just a minor correction :) But the X5650 is unlocked and you can even overclock it to about nearly 1k CB scores. FYI
Hey look an i9 overclocking and testing video! LMG must have a Delorean?
How about it in dual, 5ghz and watercooled rendering a 1 minute 4k 60fps vid?
***** But-but just imagine the possibilities!
Sengial that's like saying imagine a pentium g3258 running at 30Ghz
Sengial The possibilities of a Xeon when it comes to overclocking are limited, as Linus showed us in this video. A 5% overclock using watercooling evidently doesn't yield a stable setup, any higher than 10% would mean it can't even boot at all.
Can't wait for my phone to run Crysis though.
Michel van Briemen Dude, Crysis 3 is being ported to Android to run on the Shield console. IT CAN RUN CRYSIS!!!!! What a time to live in.
GOPACKERSJT That's cool, but I was hinting more towards an x86-based phone that could natively run the original Crysis.
Also, Can It Run Crysis was a running gag for years following its release :D
Linus 5 years later(2020):
How did they fit 64 cores and 128 threads in this?
Well it's pretty cheap i found it on amazon for 200$, especially for 18 cores.
AMD's is overpriced.
Oh man, old linus videos are a trip
And 2 years later, the Ryzen R7 1700 is getting Cinebench R15 numbers just over 1770 at 4 GHz for $300. Amazing how the technology keeps evolving. My first cpu didn't even have cache, and much less ram than this processor had in L1 cache.
"Come quickly! It's installing drivers. You'll miss it!"
And all around the world, women's panties dropped to the floor...
Its not a gaming CPU. i7 4790k at 4.5ghz would kill it in any game.
Nice video Linus.
UndyingGhost It wouldn't kill it, but 18 cores are useless in games. 2 cores are more of a standart in games. Some use 4 cores but not many
The i7 5820k kills the 4790k
FeaR FuZiioN Not in gaming. Core clock is still the king, 4Ghz stock on 4790k still beats anything.
These i7 are top of the line of their generation (non-X). They are very similar
Well an i5 4690k does just as good in gaming
do you wanna know the best place to put your thermal compund ? your kitchen, with the benchmark pc and a microwave
I like the idea of keeping thermal paste in the kitchen cabinet.
2015: OH WOW 18 CORES
2023: pffs we have 128 cores
4500$ proccesor.
"Well that's a ridiculous temperature.... Let's overclock it!"
Linus Sebastian, 2015
And to think i was considering buying one of these a few months back in a server. It had 2 of them with 128gb of ram for 2 grand.
I'm wondering ; will my pc stop lagging when mcaffee runs a scan with this cpu ?
