Which one to keep?

viper22221 · Jul 31, 2016

I have currently two systems, one with a fx 8320e stock and the other one is a xeon x5675@4.2ghz lga 1366. Which one should i keep? I want to sell one of the system to upgrade my gpu.

The X58 has better resale value, but the AMD system is more future proof and could easily overclock to a higher speed than the Xeon.
Whether gaming or number crunching, the 8 core system is the one I would stick with.

The xeon is a 6c/12t cpu... i think that the xeon is a bit more powerful system but kind of o bit old tecnology compared to the amd system.... dont know what to do

Bench them against eachother in games and whatnot, and keep the better rig.

Which overclocks better?

I own both systems very similar to yours and id sell the AMD system personally, the 12threaded CPU is still a beast even today and will beat the 8320 all day long no matter what the clock speed. Besides new AMD stuff is coming out soon so

And this is coming from a AMD "fan" boy

the amd can reach higher oc frecuencies. The only bench i did to compare is in 3dmark in the time spy bench where the xeon has higher cpu score than the amd. (xeon@4.2ghz vs amd@4.4ghz)

What about Unigine Heaven . min FPS ,avg FPS .

from Pass Mark single core :
Xeon X5675 1403 points
FX 8320E - 1355 points

multi core :
Xeon X5675 - 8570 points
FX 8320E - 7454 points
http://cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php

TDP 95W - both

Xeon X5675 - 20% overclocked
FX 8320E - 10% overclocked
Hence the Xeon X5675 system should be faster
