Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I needed a computer for comfortable work with 3D graphics and rendering. I bought 2 processors Intel Xeon x5675 3.06 GHz 12M Cache, installed on the board from the HP Z800 graphics station version 460838-003. The processors cost 3 thousand on aliexpress, motherboard revision # 003 with delivery from the states to 9 thousand. In total, for 15 thousand I assembled a dual-processor system, which in Cinebench R15 gives 1474 units, which is commensurate with xeons for 80 thousand. I will not write the rest of the tests, whoever is interested, will find it himself. My previous computer is 5.2 times slower. I consider this processor simply unique in terms of cost to performance ratio.

There is one foreigner, whose report I was guided by when creating my working system. photos just from his page: http://andybrown. Me. Uk/2022/11/01/z800/

Pros

+ Excellent performance for its price of $ 50. + Big cache + Gets a little warm! idle 32 degrees, under load 45! the cooler is simple, without fanaticism at all, I won’t even write, so as not to be ashamed.

Cons

- there is nothing to upgrade, the platform is outdated, and the top models on the 1366 chipset already heat up significantly, their TDP is 130W. Thus, buying a processor smaller than 5675 for the 1366 platform only makes sense for overclocking purposes. - motherboard from HP Z800 does not support overclocking in principle. no frequency control. but this has nothing to do with the processor, so the minus is conditional.

Motherboards on Ali are expensive. On ebay you can find cheaper. In terms of performance, it's like amd r5 1600.

Pros: Hi all. When I switched to it from the i7 920, I really felt its charms. The thinner tech process and six cores gave a lot of positive emotions at first. Different cons: Already outdated. AMD RYZEN has set new benchmarks for performance and pricing.
