Not too experienced with this and need your help. I agreed for a dedicated server deal with Core2Quad Q9300 but now the agent is giving me a Xeon X3220 instead and said there is no difference.
Could I get some opinions? Is it true there is no difference? I had the impression that the Q9300 was more powerful.
I just ordered a dell server a few days ago and have noticed in addition to a free harddrive upgrade I now have an upgraded processor for the same price.
PE860 Quad-Core Xeon X3220 2.4GHz/2x4MB 1066FSB (105W)
Free Processor Upgrade to QC Xeon 5320
The question for me is which is better? The previous processor was the low energy 105W one which suited me fine as I'm co-locating this to a DC where they are very strict on power consumption.
Is this one going to provide a noticable performance increase over the first? Is it a major power hog?
I am thinking about upgrading my current server.
My current cpy is Q8200, thinking about getting X3220.
Will i see "big improvement".
how much of improvement i will get, also HDDs probably would be upgraded from SATA to SAS 73GB 15k (RAID1).
What are the differences between using core2 quad and xeon quad?
Specifically, what are the differences between Q9400 and Xeon X3330?
Assume that other hardware are all the same (say supermicro X7SBi) are there any difference in using either?
I'm getting a quad core server and am wondering is there any much difference (performance, stability?) between a quad core Xeon 5400 series and a Core2Quad Q9300?
View 3 Replies View Relatedon my dedicated server provider it said that i was ordering a Quad core Xeon 3320 2.5 ghz and when i got it and checked the server specs, it said Core2Quad Q9400 2.66 GHZ. I emailed them why it didnt say Xeon 3320, and this is their response
Intel repackaged the Core2Duo Q9300 as the Intel Xeon 3320. The only difference that Intel will verify is that the CPU will readout "Xeon X3320" instead of "Q9300". Both chips have the same components.
If you look at other sites, you will see them list other processors in the same way "Xeon XXXX 2.XGhz (Core2Duo/Quad)".
Ive had different opinions from different people saying they are the same and some saying that they are not. So im asking you guys now. Is this true?
I'm just about to buy a server for my Database.
My site does 230,000 unique visitors per day and I have MySQL and Httpd on the same server with 2gb ram and quad2core....
I have a decision to make about hosting.
I have 2 offers for the same monthly price.
Option A - Xeon X3220 quad core
Option B - AMD Phenom 9600 quad core
Everything else is comparable RAM, disk, bandwidth etc
Intel Xeon 3200 series Quad Core VS Intel Core2Quad Q6600
What stood between Intel Xeon 3200 series Quad Core VS Intel Core2Quad Q6600?
had you ever use q6600 and x3220 to run xen ?
i wonder if they can support xen well.
I'm thinking in changing my actual dedicated server, but I'm not sure if I will win with the change.
I use it for web hosting, but I am going to need a lot of Mysql use.
I also want to work with Flash Media Server or Red5, but I have the project stopped.
All are almost in the same price. What do you recommend me?
I have never touched Linux and my Server is Windows 2003, do you recommend me to change to Linux?

Softlayer is pricing these both the same, and I've been a big fan of the
x3220 for a long time now. I haven't been able to fine ANY reasonably priced servers that can out perform the x3220 in computational ability.
That said, does anyone have any figures that would suggest the 5410 is better?
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 5410 - 2.33GHz (Harpertown) - 1 x 12MB cache
vs
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 3220 - 2.40GHz (Kentsfield) - 2 x 4MB cache
Clearly the cache is bigger, but for me, it's about speed and computation.
I can't find any references to the x5410 in the VPS vs Dedicated thhread.
I would like to compare a Dual Xeon 3Ghz HT with a single Quad Xeon 2.4Ghz. Does tperformance difference worth $60 month plus?

It is simply amazing!

I purchased one of those when it was for $179.99 and I am still using it. (Original is $199.99)
These servers are a BEAST!
Just wanted to say that LimeStoneNetworks dominates with the pricing + support and everything else related to Dedicated Server =P
Core2Quad or Quad Core
What's the difference?
Is a Core2Quad Q6600 cpu a good choice in a dedicated server compared to a Xenon or Dual Xenons?
I'm sepcifically looking at this page...[url]
Is this a good deal?
The 1TB SATA can be swapped for a 300GB SCSI at no extra cost.
Intended for a vbulletin forum so lots of database queries, I assume the 8GB ram would be good for that.
I want to use Core2quad on X7SBA supermicro mobo. And as have few RAM's in stock of this model
[url]
Was wondering if this RAM will be compatible to this motherboard.
[url]
As it mentioned on sheet of this mobo that
Intel® Xeon® 3000 Sequence and
Core™ 2 Quad / Duo Series in LGA775
Package (FSB 1333/1066/800 MHz)
Up to 8GB unbuffered ECC / non-ECC
DDR2 800/667 SDRAM
But want to make sure.
I now have 2 options for my new servers,first one specs:
Core2Quad Q6600
4GB DDR-II 800Mhz
2 x 250GB SATA II
and another one:
Dual Opteron 280
4GB ECC DDR (it should be 400Mhz)
2 x 250GB SATA
They are about same price as the second one is used system and the first one is brand new.
So which one should i choose?
There's something I've always wondered, what makes a Xeon a Xeon?
For instance, what is the difference between a Core 2 Quad Q9300 and a Quad-Core Xeon E5420. Both are quad core, have a 1333MHz FSB, run at 2.5GHz, have SSE4.1, any all the specs seem identical.
Only difference I see is the Xeon has 12MB cache compared to the Q9300's 6MB.
But generally speaking, what makes a Xeon such much better for a server environment than a Core 2 processor.
Intel Core2Quad Yorkfield 2.83GHZ w/ 12Mb L2 Cache
Intel Dual Xeon E5405 (8 x 2.00GHZ 2 x 12MB Cache)
Is there a big difference?
Which is a better option? Both priced same, I know with the Xeon 5310 the possibility of upgrading to dual cpu's.
Quote:
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 3220 - 2.40GHz (Kentsfield) - 2 x 4MB cache
Single Processor Quad Core Xeon 5310 - 1.60GHz (Clovertown) - 1 x 8MB cache
Which would give higher performance in a shared web hosting environment?
Which one is better: Dual Xeon 2.8GHz/HT vs Dual Core Xeon 2.4GHz (3060) for shared hosting with database intensive? Both with 4GB RAM.

I already have the space so I ruled out renting any, and I see that you can get some pretty good deals on the MPs, I see a few quad 1.4/1.5ghz. But how would they compare to todays processors? What should I expect from them?
