on 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?

We are hosting our software system which do calculation and file manipulation.
Now we have Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 and would like to get Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 to increase our system performance.
Also we have other choice, get Intel Xeon E5405 Harpertown 2.0GHz
to replace two above.
I think it is better to have one server box because one box easy to manage than two. Also Harpertown is much faster than these two together.
What is your opinion?

I have a dedicated server that is the Q9400 and in the WHM Server Status area it states that in fact it is a Core2Quad Q9400 2.66ghz, however all four processor speeds are at 1998mhz is this correct? 2ghz and not in fact 2.66?

I have currently a server with a "Intel Core 2 duo e6640 2.4Ghz".
Now the company I'm at moving to a new data center and offering me a box for the same price with a Intel P3.4.
As I understand I would move from a two core to a single core CPU.
In the first move letter they send me, they where saying I would get a CPU plus, plus 1 GB mem more.

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?

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.

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.

My Review / Experiances of Limestonenetworks
My Advise Avoid like the plauge
01-07-09 01:14 PM
I placed an order for a server
01-08-2009
Server is ready
Orginal Config
DotnetPanel
Windows Web 2008
I had problems from the start
IIS Not starting correctly
Dotnetpanel issues including adding websites.
So I fixed what I could and then employed someone to do the work.
Afterlooking around I found someone who looked proffessional and told me he could do the work.
He got back to me after a few hours and said their were problems with the server OS and DotnetPanel install.
It would take longer to fix but he would try
After A day or so, he sent me and email stating he was unable to get it to work correctly and said the entire OS needed to be reinstalled.
So I contacted LSN and told them about the problems I was having and decided to ditch the Windows 2008 Web server for a more roboust soloution.
I went for the classic Centos and Hypervm soloution.
LSN happy loaded my server with a fresh OS and I proceed to employ my normal guy to install and configure the server
AV went on
firewall went on
Lex went on
Hypervm went on
IP Address Binded to network adapters.
But all the VPS we setup only had the "local lan adapter IP" making them inaccessiable from the outside world.
After somemore looking at the matter I resorted to contact LSN and get them to remove /change the interfaces.
This gave the VPS the external IPS but were still not connectable from the outside world. so far I spent 65$ on the orinal comapny who looked at setting up the web 2008 server additioanl 45$ on a diffrent tech to confirm the fault and been billed for a second money at singlehop.
so I contacted "customer support" and all I wanted was a refund, even if it was parcial. I just wanted a refund. I lost out on to much money and to many hours sitting infront of the computer typing up support contacts.
Please read the transcript below I strongly advise you not to use LSN they are not a helpful company
You are now chatting with ryan
ryan: Hello, thank you for visiting Limestone Networks! How may I assist you today?
ibby@: Hello Ryan, I want to make a complaint.
ryan: Oh no! What appears to be the issue? ....

after reading the complete thread about Limestone's TOS and weighing their latest server offering, I took the plunge and just spent $160 on a monthly server.
My email from them is dated today at 6:44 pm.
Let's see how long it takes to get this server in my hands. Nothing special in the order, an extra hd for backup, that is it.
I'm a newbie here but not a newbie to unmanaged servers. If this one goes off without a hitch, I'll move a few sites from a box I currently have a ManageMyBox (no problems with them, at all, just looking for a datacenter closer to home and this seemed like a good deal).

I've got a few servers around many companies, yet never tried them(LSN). To me they are a bit fishy, by how cheap their servers are. Any experience with them(Good/Bad), please share it.

I am very happy go give everyone a review of limestonenetworks.com
Here is My story!
I was in a bunch and needed a VPS server because My other one went down unexpectedly, so i needed a new server in under 5 hours. I looked all over, and came upon one very special company, Limestonenetworks.com. I placed the order, and selected to have HyperVM/OpenVZ installed. The server was setup in 3 Hours! This was the fastest setup time for a dedicated server I have ever seen. When I submit a support ticket, I have a response within 30 mins. This is truly one of the best datacenters ever! Their staff is very helpful! To be honest, I am so pleased with them, I just now ordered a second server from them! Yes, You do pay a bit more, but you definatly get what you pay for, and ill tell you what, this extra 2 cents is worth it all the way!
I would recommend Limestonenetworks.com to ANYONE!

My first ever post on WHT and I am happy its a positive one. These are a few words I have to say in favor of people at LimestoneNetworks.
I ordered a Intel Core2Quad Q6600 dedicated server with them with upgrading most of the resources to the topmost at about 6 AM CST this Friday. They recently included a Fraud Check in their TOS which I was not aware of but only became notified once I had signed up. It involved uploading the CC images and a Govt ID.
Btw: their new control panel Rockware actually Rocks !
I uploaded the docs promptly and since chat was offline I called them up and got connected with a Support rep. He told me that a Sales rep will check on it at 8 AM CST. At 8 AM, one of the sales rep promptly acknowledged the ticket for verification and it had the comments of a 24-hour turnaround, which scared me a little.
Wonder ! Wonder ! Since all my stuff was verifiable and without any issues... I got reply within 20 mins stating my server was being sent for provisioning.
Another wonder ! another 20 mins and my server was showing the server in my Rockware CP as being built. I was pressing F5 like crazy and everytime I saw something new in my CP regarding my server. Which is like the most rapid updates I have seen ever !
Overall, even after the verification delay, I got my server in 4 hours !
Subsequently I had to open some tickets to them for issues that were from my side and 100% (yes 100%) of the time, someone responded within 5 mins.
Hoping to post a similar (if not more) positive review after couple of months.

current LSN customers (if possible) check what kind of hardware is their server?
I am looking @ Q9550 offer they have.
If somebody could check MB, RAM, HDD models.
Also, is there anyone on their 10TB plan?
Do they really allow customers to do this BW?

I have been with them for 3+ months now and the service has been amazing. I am pleased with the superb fast and knowledgeable customer support.
Going more into details...
I have submitted couple support tickets and all were answered on a timely manner, with proper guidance. Also their live-chat is very good, the rep. is knowledgeable and can provide technical support. The staff seems quite nice, and I am loving their new rockware panel, makes it easy for anyone to configure dns, pay invoice, check invoice, submit tickets, etc, etc. do anything you need to do regarding your server.
The overall service has been amazing, my site is quite server intensive and it loads very fast, my visitors are happy, and barely any downtime -- definitely a thumbs up from me
Where/How do I submit my domain to verify the review like I have seen in couple other threads?

Want to share my expirience after 2 weeks on limestone netwroks and psm.
For starters - i'm very happy with the service (~230$/m)
I started out with a webmin controled server without management and after 2 days of try and fail and new threads in wht i finally switched to cpanel with psm service, switch was really fast and limestone has a deal which gets you 5 bucks off psm's monthly fee.
limestone accually reinstalled my server and added cpanel and then contacted psm to get my software initialied (i even got my software configs set as my old server so i'll have a stable move).
software initiation took about 2 days with psm but that's due to special software requirment needed for my site to transfer.
responce times from psm and limestone are lightning fast and besides an overcharge of 39 bucks due to new software bug on limestone(got 40$ back yay), I can barely say something bad about this new system of running my dedi server with both limestone taking care of hardware and psm for all software issues - both do really well and fast on answering any kind of ticket.
ill give one example for this on the ticket i submited yesterday to psm, all my sent php mail() came out as spam on gmail.com, after contacting psm i got answered in less than 1 hour that my reverse dns aren't set correctly - then i got them setup with limestone and it took about 90 minutes to close this whole issue.
being moved from shared hosting to dedi servers I must say to all the new movers out there like I was that the combinitation of limestone + psm is great, you'll get fast and quallity support on all ends.
i've left out other info like uptime because this has been mentioned before and when combining the included psm monitoring with the great limestonenetworks uptime, downtime is a word i really forgot about.

I just want to preface this by saying I was on here reading up about hosting companies, their reviews and limestone networks after a phone call with Ryan A over there, was definitely going to be my provider.
However, I ordered my server about a week ago, and have some massive issues.
First and most concerning : Support.
There has been about 4 tickets from me, with no response for about 9+ hours, one ticket (when they incorrectly installed DotNetPanel, and I couldn't start hosting domains yet even) they didn't get back to me for almost 2 days. It looked like all hope was lost.
I guess (speaking with Kris there) they're working on tightening up the provisioning time, etc. With that said, they DID in fact fix my DotNetPanel installation, and all looked well.
Lastnight I figured I'd check my bandwidth, for kicks. I've been remote desktop connecting to my machine fairly frequently, maybe for about 10 minute sessions a piece, nothing major. I have nothing running on my box, I ran a couple of tests to check out pings, server loads so I figured I'd plop a quick and simple game server up there to test it. I checked my "bandwidth report" and this is what I found out:
[url]
Mind you, I have no mail server at all, nothing. in the span of 5 days I've used almost my entire quota, without running almost ANY serverside applications.
Currently my dedicated server remains shut down until this issue can be resolved. I entered yet another ticket lastnight, had one reply this morning, and it appears I'm back into the lost ticket desert.
Remember, just my experience. My point of view so far may change however, but at this rate it's been pretty horrible. 5 days on setting up a dedicated and have it all ready to go, I had to re-pay my old provider for another month due to Limestonenetwork's ability to not install DotNetPanel correctly, I'm pretty displeased at the moment.

Just wanted to take a minute and report that I am still extremely pleased with my LSN dedicated box. I have a 3ghz amd dual core with 4gig ram and 2x250gb hdd. No problems at all and staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. I don't want to go through the laundry list of things they have done for me and to my server (they are in other threads) but just wanted to say that they continue to impress.
