What are your thoughts on dual cpu pcs, Jow Forums? Someone gave one to me that has dual LGA771 Xeons.

sucks for gaming, no rgb support
toss it
Oliver Reed
dose it have rbg? if u fill the ram slots with rgb ram it'll be lit

They're nice if you want shit tons of RAM, pic related. But yours are too old to be worth while.
Gavin Morris
intel - anything before LGA 1366 is literally space heating waste of electricity. anything after LGA 1366 is overpriced because of boomers buying parts for their home servers.
amd - anything before G34 is stone age trash. G34 itself is decently priced in ebay but it gulps way too much electricity compared to competition. you need two """"16"""" core Opterons to outperform an 8 core Ryzen. that is at least 230 Watts of power at average use, that can jump to over 300 Watts on heavy tasks.
as the other user said, if you need tons of cheap RAM, then go ahead and use old dual socketed server motherboards. otherwise just go with a Ryzen.
Easton Rogers
Most likely a retarded question but why not make bigger cpu and socket for whatever kind of purpose this serves instead?
Mason Kelly
I wish that the consumer Ryzen CPUs had motherboards with dual CPU slots available. It would be cool to be able to significantly upgrade multi thread performance by buying a second 1600 or 2600.
Kevin Powell
What do you think Threadrippers and Epycs are? :^)
But seriously, it is easier to design and manufacture two small CPUs that will have simpler pathing to the memory sticks than designing a single big CPU. Also much easier to market since some people just want one processor, while others want that same processor but "twice as good".
AMD will never do that since it will cannibalize from their Threadripper sales.
Jonathan Evans
Multiple sockets are for servers/workstations, not really beneficial for gaming. Gaming usually only needs 4 cores.
Ryder Richardson
But would it be better at gaming than my current Core i3 550?
Can't test it out yet because of the dead psu.
Josiah Collins
Indeed. LGA1366 master race. New enough to have great features, old enough to be cheap as fuck.

can I send you junk mail?

>having such a shitbox where you dont care about power at all
i'm using 900 watts right now, things are mostly idle and my 40" monitor is off. if i'm playing vidya this jumps by about 400 watts.

people already do. people love signing up for random accounts without email verification on my hitlerdidnothingwrong.com domain.

ok, then I won't be an asshole.
Christian Murphy
based and redpilled.

my gaming rig is 2x x5650s and 2x RX570s in pass through to VMs
shit werks great
Jonathan Rogers
this, 1488---I mean, 1366 masterrace
Jackson Brooks
>rgb support
fuck off with your RgayB shit
Dylan Jenkins
how much to buy hitlerdidnothingwrong.com from you?
David Ramirez
>Server not found
it does not exist, you really though it existed?
Austin Barnes
>t. domain challenged retard
Evan Cooper
god you're retarded, pic related
not really looking to sell it so unless you offered me something stupid like $1k, sorry.
Gavin Smith
$100.
Camden Ross
nope, not interested at all. $100 cant buy me anything i want, and if you look at you can see that things i do want are far more than a $100.
Ryan James
I wish you could use two different CPUs in them. I'd kill to be able to have a high clocked 4 core CPU and a high core count CPU in the same computer.
So you could play games when needed and use the other high core count CPU for actual work.
Evan Lewis
ah I see you're an intellectual
Joseph Thomas
I've got a couple, they're great.

dual X5470 is the best money can buy
