November 23, 201114 yr check Physics score at default! Wow! Monster at default ... Locked multi, but 4,8 GHz on AIR possible 1,25 CPU Strap + highest multi + BCLK margin ...
November 23, 201114 yr Author yes, its working on X79 board ... but not on all of them, will ask manufacturers for bios ... launch is Q1/12 + price +/- 1300-1500 USD
November 23, 201114 yr Q1-2012, that's CeBIT launch. 14k physics stock ... that's well over 20k overclocked. Dayum!
November 23, 201114 yr Author price correction 1888 USD! : http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Xeon/Intel-Xeon%20E5-2687W.html :( :cry: Sam - yes i think
November 23, 201114 yr Urh, $1885. Luckily, we only 'need' it for Vantage or 3DMark11. Heaven DX11 FTW!
November 24, 201114 yr If I was right, 2687W didnt work on strap 125 as well. Edited November 24, 201114 yr by AndreYang
November 24, 201114 yr Author who cares now, two months before launch with immatures BIOSes, and early stepping? Will see after launch, but remember what i am saying now Maybe Asus BIOS cant do it, but we have another options
November 26, 201114 yr What board have you tested it with OBR? Does it need a specific BIOS in order to operate properly?
January 3, 201214 yr ''Maybe Asus BIOS cant do it, but we have another options '' hhmm, You say: Its possible STEEP BLK worcking with asus bios modification/update ? and with actual ES chip ? or just with OEM CPU verssion ? arf, NDA
January 3, 201214 yr So far from what I have read on forums, gear/strap 125, 166 or whatever doesnt work with Xeon E5 8core. 4 different guys, 4 different chips, 4 different motherboards, 4 different bios. No one managed to use another strap than the default 100, 1:1, 1.0. Edited January 15, 201214 yr by Christian Ney
