Skylake:this forum also has a thread on skylake es chips: https://forums.overclockers.ru/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=641484&sid=8564881044d7336ad1a6a76dc44b58c1Xeon ES:i have experience with these particularly the QYFS it is a 56 core 112 thread cpu and works perfectly. Asus W790 ace and sage support them, also some Asrock W790 boards. they have a TDP of 300w you can increase boost clocks by disabling a number of cores. super cool chip you can find the QYFS for like £150 but the final released retail version is above £10000. it has 112mb of l2 cache and 105mb of l3. there are also version with 64GB of HBM although i dont think they work on the motherboards mentioned. There are now emerald rapids ES chips too I dont know much about those but there lots of info in the serve the home threadhttps://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/asus-pro-ws-w790e-sage-se-intel-xeon-sapphire-rapids-spr-sp.41306/https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/es-xeon-discussion.5031/

Core Ultra:i cant find any info about dekstop ES chips for this series but on aliexpress they have premade motherboards with chips soldered on so I assume that they are laptop chipshttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005009799729437.htmlhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005012086865694.html>>109082889kek thats awesome
>>109082795I have a 12 core Xeon ES or QS (don't remember which, it's from 2014 or so), it's really bad. Works for about 1 month and then goes braindead just like that. Computer is still going, the lights are on but nothing is happening. Have to reset.Every time uptime gets to around a month or two it does this. It was really annoying. Performance is awful too, since it is only 2GHz compared to something like say a contemporary i7 6800K which could do over 4GHz. Yeah multi-core workloads are good, but I didn't find that particularly useful.
found this video for the core ultra 245k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gu1jaCTkVM0the es chip seems to work on an asus motherboard although I cant find listings for these on aliexpress >>109082928is it x99? you should look at upgradeing the x99 scene is really big theres tonnes of good options
>>109082928Can it overclock?
>>109082947Yes, it's X99. I have a i7 6800k on that board right now. There's very little point in upgrading since I don't use the computer much anyway.>>109082949No. Runs RAM at 2133MHz too.

https://www.goofish.com/item?&id=1049915475036found a chink motherboard on xianyu which supports a bunch of the es chips, it says 14th gen is supported but ive not seen any 14th gen processors
>>109082966>i7 6800kComfy processor
>>109082795I only buy retail chips because of overclock autism
>>109084511lots of them can be overclocked i think not all though, the sapphire rapids xeons can be overclocked with the asrock ws board because they have bclk overclocking
Bump
>>109084874the last time I looked at 10900k ES chips, they seem to have a buggy memory controller that doesn't clock high and ESs in general aren't properly tested to have a VF curve that makes sense to use at stock or simply don't respond well to voltages in excess of 1.35v
>>109083648damn these chinks are making clean boards now
>>109088292for the xeon? depends how cheap you can find the motherboard on ebay theyre expensive you should be able to get one for around 500gbp used. i paid like 350 for mine. registered ddr5 is currently like 3x normal price tooqyfs is currently 120 dollars on ebay but if you buy from xianyu using a proxy service it will be about half that https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134899171071pic is half cores, i have half disabled to get higher boost clocks>>109088600yeah they also make new motherboards for older chips with nvme and gigabit eth etc. i have a new itx board for sandy bridge or ivy bridge i forget its pretty cool
>>109082795Go back from whence you came and learn English.
i use an unlocked ES E5-2966v4 overclocked to hell and back as my daily driver
>>109091428cool what motherboard are you using
i'm in china so maybe i'll throw down $110 for a motherboard and one of these chips. there are motherboards that can do intel 12/13 gen w/ DDR5 for like $50 here based on what I see in this thread.but I can't afford RAM so...
>>109083017this set of links is amazing
