Sandy Bridge E xeon CPU details for Q4

Found this and thought people might find it interesting! Especially those of is waiting for the "SR-3"

Pardon the ignorance, what are these Xeon cpus?

Are they for laptops or something?

Quite the opposite AFAIK

they are the server processor variants of the intel line, giving you a lower TDP then the regular processors and the include instructions to work with multiple processors at the same time.

I'd say yes and no on that one. Yes, they're server processors and no in that the target TDP for these chips is 150W ([font=Verdana, Tahoma,]Xeon E5-2687W)[/font]. The other CPUs are less hot. It's the 20MB of cache that these CPUs have that drives up the TDP. Overclocking these will be bat****. 150W (max) x 2. Can't speculate overclocked TDP beyond that, as I don't have voltages and achieved clock frequencies. I wonder, can I justify replacing central heating with a 24/7 F@H SR3 rig.

Just seen his post, it was in another thread though, so i'm just making it more available to the masses
