Quad Core Xeon E3 1240 E3 1270 there really isnt any diff between them and here in AU there is a 100$ difference What one should i grab ? do you guys think i would see a performance increase with the 1270?

djonz Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Little to no differences...I don't think it worth the 100MHz. Well, not for 100$... E3-1240 @ 3.3Ghz = 8 thread E3-1270 @ 3.4Ghz = 8 thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creed3020 Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 THe 1270 is clocked 100MHz higher and thus it also turbos higher to 3.8GHz. The scores on PassMark don't show a huge different. Either way these chips are hugely powerful, for example either of those CPUs is comparable to a 2x Intel Xeon E5440 @ 2.83GHz server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
