Best Kept Secrets
This CPU is supported by the ASUS Z10PE-D8WS motherboard. It specs the same as the Intel Xeon E5-2680 V3. Anyone interested in building a budget friendly extreme workstation can pair a set of these 12 core (24 thread) CPU's (for a 24 core / 48 thread system) and end up with a machine that is comparatively valued for more than twice as much as building a 2680 system from scratch. I have two of these running on this board and managing a Blue Iris HD Camera set, and where I was constantly bumping 100% CPU load with a single Xeon E3-1225V3 CPU with 11 HD cameras, my CPU load now is a cool 13%. Time for more cameras... This is an extremely cost effective solution for anyone in need of an extreme workstation.
