    2015 NX Workstation recommendation

    Hi, I think that the single 8 core Xeon E5-2630 v3 (8C, 2.4GHz, Turbo, HT, 20M, 85W)is the wrong choice, look for something with a higher clock speed and less cores. I'd suggest the Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-1630 v3 (10M Cache, 3.70 GHz) or Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2637 v3 (15M Cache, 3.50...

    Hardware Questions

    I found the original Post, From a purely raw NX performance point of view (or really ANY SMP enabled software) the order of performance, best to worse, is as follows (this is assuming that all else is equal, such as clock-speed, memory, IO bus-speed, etc.): 1) Four single-core CPU's in 4...
