IntelXeonE3-1230V2 processor is the most cost-effective CPU platform for high-end installed users. Its biggest advantage is that it cuts off the core graphics card, has the price of Core i5 processor, high-end i7 Processor performance. There are many sayings about the high-end i5 and E3-1230v2 on the Internet. Some people think that i5 is good, and some people think that XeonE3-1230v2 is better. So what about E3-1230v2? The following small series and everyone's interpretation. E3-1230v2 How IntelXeonE3-1230v2 Advantages and Disadvantages IntelXeonE3-1230v2 processor adopts 32nm SandyBridge architecture, performance is equivalent to high-end i72600K processor, with quad-core and eight threads, price and current high-end main i5 of 22nm IVB platform The processor is quite. For many friends who want to equip the i7 processor, the "E God" E3-1230V2 is a very good choice. It has 4 cores and 8 threads. It has the same specifications as the i7 processor, but only 0.1GHz lower. The price is a few hundred dollars lower. Compared with the current mainstream i5 processor, the advantages are mainly in: 1. The price of the E3-1230v2 processor has the performance of the high-end i7 processor, the price is equivalent to the i5, and the cost performance is higher. 2, with the motherboard because the E3-1230v2 processor does not support overclocking, so the current cost-effective mainstream B75 motherboard is enough to meet the requirements, and the mainstream i53570K processor needs to match the high-end Z77 motherboard, the price, B75 is much more affordable than the Z77, two There is not much difference in performance and expansion. Compared with the current mainstream i5 processor, the main disadvantages are as follows: 1. The power consumption E3-1230v2 adopts the 32nm process, while the new generation mainstream i5 processor adopts the 22nm process, so the power consumption is compared to the i5230v2. The processor is insufficient. 2, the core graphics card E3-1230v2 processor castrated the core graphics card, and i5 processor has a core graphics card, but for these high-end products, generally combined with high-end discrete graphics, so in fact, the core graphics card is only accumulated, no need to mention. 3, overclocking E3-1230v2 processor does not support overclocking, and Core i5 series processor has a lot of support for overclocking, playability, overclocking version i5 higher, but overclocking is also performance, E3-1230v2 processor has Up to i7 high-end processor performance, not overclocking performance beyond i5. Editor's Note: IntelXeonE3-1230v2 is a Xeon server series that has castrated the core graphics card. It uses quad-core and eight-thread, which is much better than the quad-core and four-thread of i5 processor. For large applications and gamers, the E3-1230v2 processor with excellent price/performance ratio is a good choice. If it is only a medium and large game user, the CPU performance requirements are not particularly high, the more energy-efficient, performance-prone i5 processor is more recommended, the key is that you want CPU performance or energy-saving, new technology.
