I have an old dual s1366 workstation. Lenovo D20.
Currently it has two X5675 cpu-s.
The s1366 cpus are very cheap on ebay/ali... etc so i can upgrade for a little price.
I used this machine for work (VM machines, servers...), but now its is only for gaming.
What is the best upgrade option for gaming?:
two X5687 - 8 cores but higher clockspeed, cheap under 2x20 USD
two X5680 - 12 cores lower clockspeed, little faster than current x5675 - i have only one now, but i need another for the second socket. 1x35 USD
X5690 is better but costs too much (2x50 usd on aliexpress and it have a chance to have customs tax (in Hungary that is +27%))
i can sell the two x5675 localy for a good price, so the az upgade cost me almost nothing.
I have a 1070Ti, and a lot of ram (6x16gb), two ssd's... so i think for gaming the cpu limits the fps. Overclocking is not possible on this workstation.
Am only playing a few games, minecraft, 7dtd, men of war, skyrim, and sometimes star citizen
I really like this old machine, and i dont want to buy a new ryzen or something only if this dies.
Thanks!
