New Xeons

[athfbum]

How do the new LGA775 Conroe core Intel Xeon processors compare to Core 2 Duo?

Comparing a 3050 to a E6400

They are the same.

Keep it up and you will be an expert on this subject! lol

LOL, I know. I was about to pull the trigger on a E6600 or E6400 but now after doing all of the research, it looks like I'll be ordering a 3050 or 3060 soon.

I'm gonna get a 3050 instead of 6400, It should run similar to an e6400 ES (since the ES chips were 4mb)

I am opting for a 3050 or a 3060 now. Hehehe

The xeon equivelant of the e6400 is only 2Mb cache too. The only difference is likely better overclocking.

The only difference is the warranty. They are the same chip with different writing on the front...
