Not really, but a quick look at the Intel site has some info on the basic specs - looking at the released versions only these two have the fastest clocks and equal number of cores (6): http://ark.intel.com/products/48768/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5645-12M-Cache-2_40-GHz-5_86-GTs-Intel-QPI http://ark.intel.com/products/64616/Intel-Xeon-Processor-E5-2430--15M-Cache-2_20-GHz-7_20-GTs-Intel-QPI So the E5 has slightly larger cache, faster QPI, higher TDP, can address more RAM and same RRP.. ;-) Caveat: in the past I've found howlers on the ARK Intel site, so validate any info with external sources! cheers, Chris - -- Christopher Samuel Senior Systems Administrator VLSCI - Victorian Life Sciences Computation Initiative Email: sam...@unimelb.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)3 903 55545 http://www.vlsci.org.au/ http://twitter.com/vlsci -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlBRkXQACgkQO2KABBYQAh8arwCfdrG2f/5qjaW4L4Pqb8zB6fUj FFkAnjuWS/WrdIAtQQFJL6cOvWXGpDwr =ngGi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
