Hey Linus could you Make a video about the Phi Coprocessor?
Is mean time to failure a concern for these chips?
Intel riping off their customers….. What else is new?!
The very reason why i will never touch another intel….. AMD all the way..
Anyone using a Core I9?
Basically branding, as concluded in the video. Or that Apple had some say in the pricing to make their already overpriced iMac seem a little less overpriced.
The xeon-w also doesn’t solder HS, like other xeons. Wonder what the thermals are like. The C422 motherboards don’t have 10GB ethernet built in like some similar X99’s that could socket a Xeon and ECC memory.
The smell!!! LOL
That Origin PC site is a total ripoff…
is this video serious?! xeon are meant for servers – in there ECC memory is a must and also you can use more then 1 CPU on the same board. thats the market for xeon, not home usage or gaming.
Bro, are you totally stupid? Obviously these proccessors are server dedicated and not, to play games !
You pay the support for industry standards, like ECC, casual gamers don’t give a flack about this shit !
To me the only advantage to Zeon chips in dual configuration setups!
Those 4 PCIe lanes may also have something to do with onboard graphics that Intel perhaps abandoned at the last minute… just a theory.
Wait… this isn’t the original name of the video. Why was it changed from TOTAL RIPOFF From Intel!
I have a Xeon W3520 from 2009 that still retails for $400! That counts, right?
Yet another reason I’ll never try Intel lol.
I LOVE THE CAMERA VIEW .
uhhh… wasnt this named TOTAL RIPOFF FROM INTEL
Why are there hardcore fanboys to run to the defense of anything that really has no defense or justification? I’m not limiting this exclusive to Apple or intel, so drop the “I will always love to hate them…obsessively” bandwagon because I’m not talking to you. I’m talking about any given company with customer loyalty and dedication. How are they benefiting from this and why do they continue to do this relentlessly?
since i lost my work few years back, never again gaming hardware. ok only the gpu, nvidia quadro is not enough for me, but had been using only xeon with ecc on supermicro boards with 10gb lan. and i game on them, never got a bsod again ever and it never needs reboot , even get 6months on using the pc, editing etc.
Talking of ECC. Has it ever been confirmed that it actually does anything? Is it possible to test if ECC is doing anything? or at least see a log of ECC actually correcting an error? If not, why do people keep buying it? Sounds like scam to me.
very good
did u change the title linus !!!!!!!
aren’t they made for servers? Of course it’s marketing, but unless they’re tested in real life we cannot actually say if intel are ripping people off. Stability is worth a million X9’s or Ryzens if it delivers
Yeah, I considered building d Xeon system, but I didn’t see the performance boost for the cost.
I don’t know why the hell do you make the memory run at the same speed ….. it’s meant to be faster in the desktop version -_- , this is annoying .
No threadripper comparison? Come on Linus. Those who buy these would be examing them and tyhreadripper has A SHITTONE of cores for cheap for those who run these loads
Should’ve checked the power draw
Big hair more good
It actually smells like Greed, which is Intel pure and only motivation, and it surpasses any other company’s greed.
If they can get away with it, they’ll do it, no matter how blatantly obvious their tricks are to the consumer.
There’s no reason for these 2 platforms to be separate. You could have just Xeon’s with all the features available on them, or Core i9’s with all the features.
Charging a premium for ECC and VPro is pure greed, its trying to rip people off.
Make some videos regarding printer and other stuff. Not pc building and performance…
professional grade products, cpus and chipsets, come with a completely different class of service and support. When fixes for vulnerabilities come out, those platforms will have much higher priority for microcode and bios releases, as an example.
The Xeon W is a marketing ploy to sell Apple hardware. All modern hardware is acceptable for 95% of customers. I don’t know why people waste money for hardware that does nothing extra…except for some performance numbers that nobody actually cares about. ….except for sales people.
Herp derp Intel.
You mean since you had your aspie employee break that iMac ON PURPOSE?
1) I will never purchase a thing from Origin since they sponsored this clickbait trash.
2) In the interest of saving the viewers NINE MINUTES of their lives, the reason why the chip costs more is because of its heat dissipation design. The CPU is designed to run in confined spaces with minimal airflow. That’s why it costs more and runs slower.
See what a google search can do?
I like AMD
since xeon is rated for workstation loads (hehe) wouldn’t it mean that xeon would last longer under constant load for longer periods of time? or no?
ONLY 8 sata’s NOT 10 BOOO x99 is better
Where is tunnelbear?
No 🙁
Don’t marry your cousin
Is ECC memory must for Machine Learning Applications ?
Intel messed up here :/
I haven’t blue screened in over a decade…
