Product ReviewsIntel Xeon Processor E5-1650 v3 (15M Cache 3.50 GHz) 3.5GHz 15MB L3 processor

The E5-1650 v3 @3.5GHz does not completely blow away the E5-2620 v4, but it is a lot perkier.

This E5-1650 v3 6-core is replacing an E5-2620 v4 8-core in a server. The 1650 fired up without a problem and has been running a while with no odd behavior. It is 3.5GHz as opposed to the 2620's 2.1GHz, and you can tell the difference in response. Where it will not beat the 2620 is under a heavy load. Those cores make a difference. This server isn't normally under a heavy load, so it isn't so critical to have all of the cores. I like the E5-1650 V3, and I sold the E5-2620 V4.Read full review...
