In this round with the Xeon X5660 (at 4.5GHz) we put it up against the i9-9900K (at 5GHz) and couple it with the grand daddy of Gaming at the moment - The Strix ROG 2080 Ti, to see how much, if any, a gap there is between an 8 year old CPU and a recently released latest and greatest main stream desktop CPU.

Non la technologie du processeur est au maximum, elle est devenu tellement petite qu'on ne peut plus compressé le processeur ainsi le système "processeur" va stagné d'ici 4-5 ans. Il n'y aura seulement que des améliorations du software et de loverclocking . Donc un I9 vaudra toujours 2000$ ^^
its sad. people think only because things are old that they are automatically bad. this video proves them so wrong. thanks for this amazing video bryan, hope the injury gets better
Uhh, kinda made me think performance on x58 is more suckish than I expected. But I guess you'll have a different opinion depending on your expectations.
@@SuprSi what the hell are you talking about? more then 50% of the performance of a 9900k for the 10th of the price. what is wrong with you? this price perfomance is amazing

@@oneyricenice4671 but hey this i5 is a decent gaming cpu
@@slaaayx He's just and idiot that expects modern numbers out of a CPU that's almost 10 years old at this point. The price to performance on X58 imo is currently the best in the world.
My X58 rig failed to boot last month. I hadn't had a chance to install the Xeon i'd bought to upgrade the i7 920 yet. She's been through a lot (from dual SLI GTX275's through to an RX480) and I'm hoping it was just the HDD but yet to do a post mortem. It really is amazing how long that system lasted compared to some of my more modern hardware that doesn't even seem to make the 2 year mark!
I really appreciate your videos and hardwark you put in it. Most of the youtubers ( tech ones ) does not cross there comfort zone ( sponsored techs ). You my DUDE is the only one that go hunt PC deals around the globe and provide us the cheap and very effective solution for PC gaming.
Keep up the good work !!
I do love to see some X58 loving! Its because of you I have my own X58 build based on an X5675 cranked upto 4.5Ghz and its a killer machine. Ill be revisiting it soon too to see if I can push things futher and to see how RAM affects it in terms of the amount (12gb vs 24gb) and if mixed modules has any impact on performance.
I know my channel is tiny (I just hit 200 subs this afternoon) but its your channel which pushed me to try X58 and I thought "why not record what im doing?" so have to say a huge thank you YES man! Your the baws!
Thanks brother, also love the name.
Wow, as a 34 year old man reading this comment at 2am in the morning drinking Jack Daniels Honey, im disproportionately stoked you subbed to my channel! Thank you sir!

I love these comparison videos Brian. Always such interesting results. Your channel has completely changed the way I build.
I cant get enough of those amazing videos you make, thanks to you I got hooked to Xeons and OC, and also lets not forget you're awesome used parts builds.
Resuming, you need to spend more than 3000% of money, to have only 33% more performance than a 10 years old CPU, fine, it's only Intel being Intel...
@@thepro08 X58 overclocked will be very near to i9
Well Intel can't optimize their 14nm process anymore, that juice is pretty much squeezed out from that orange. They keep pushing back their 10nm release due to ongoing stability issues. now there are rumors going around that they might abandon their 10nm process altogether as a result, which would be a disaster given all the time and money they spent on designing their 10nm. Intel is in a freefall right now. Meanwhile amd's ryzen is getting better and better with each passing generation.
Or maybe not every cpu is meant specifically for gaming,watch this i9 completely destroy the xeon in rendering,etc..
@@thepro08 I was referring to the xeon presented in this video,i have no doubts current xeons destroy i9 and i7's in rendering since they are more inclined for rendering,etc.. And you can't sit here and tell me the xeon in this video destroys the i9 in cinebench lmao

Thanks for the video. It confirms what I have been saying for awhile about new CPUs...
Im still running a 920 ES (engineering sample) @4.2 , i bought ten years ago,
it still running strong, it still plays the latest titles no worries.
OMG this guy!! Love it, I'm still rocking my Asus P6T went from i7-920 to Xeon 5670 running at 4.2 on H100i. Recently got a 1080ti (for 630!) instead of seriously considering a platform upgrade. Sure there is some 'bottlenecking' but hardly enough to warrant a new Intel platform.
I've commented before but I love bragging about my rig. Built the old girl in 2009 and still rocking the same mobo having upgraded ram and proc, a Xeon 5670 off ebay for $60. I bought an AIO watercooler less than two years ago to put off investing in a new platform and immediately took my old i7-920 from stock 2.66 to 4ghz with substantial performance increases. This x58 platform is getting a little old now, but almost a decade on it still incredibly impressive. I don't think it's possible to invest in a new platform today and get that kind of value, with that much overhead for overclocking and simply maintaining competitive performance numbers. ( I think I spent just over $600 for the P6T, i7-920, and 8gb corsair in 2009) Even now, it's impossible to justify a $5-600 investment for another 20-odd fps on my 130 fps in blops4. I'm hoping AMD brings the big guns with their upcoming 7nm process and I might pay attention if for no other reason than to see Intel get some serious competition again.
Noice. I have a P6T (I bought in 2009) as well and I upgraded my i7-940 to an x5680. No overclocking though. I wanted to create a top of the line workstation from 2010, earlier this year, by using a couple of Fermi based Tesla and a Quadro but the CUDA support is sooooo bad that most GPU accelerated workloads were finicky at best and strait up did not work at worst. No problems with Kepler though.
I would like to get my hands on a Tesla K20c but paying almost 400 dollars for a used GGPU that I would essentially use as a toy is unjustifiable. Instead, I run a k2000 and two k4000s as accelerators for very simple 3D projects when I want to goof around and hard-limit my scope via hardware restrictions so that I do not go overboard. I plan on adding a SAS card as I have a couple of SAS drives laying around and am thinking, why the hell not?
Well everyone is getting some tech yes loving
Still rocking a x5675 xeon. A friend of mine gave idea, also your videos about overclocking it were pretty helpful.
This video is awesome, I'm currently reviving my x5650 and am blown away how well it performs with a modest 3.6ghz overclock. Literally shelved this old rig when I got my 4790k rig up and running and idk why I didn't just upgrade my x5650 computer.
Save for more food by buying a cheap Windows key???? Did not see that coming.
Just install windows 7 and upgrade for free to win 10 pro. Pay 0$
Lol, me neither. What a joke :D
Yeah iwas laughing on the floor😂😂😂
lol
Buy windows what a joke 🤣🤣😂
x58 is still pretty decent, I only moved away from it 12 months ago - and the only reason was for 4K editing.
Love my X58 rig. Got it after watching your videos. Thank you, Brian
What's your configuration?
i like what you do, keep it up man
I've been using a x58 system for 3 months now (Rampage II Extreme, X5675 4.5ghz) and I'd have to say it's pretty good, but yeah the board prices/availability makes it not worth it most of the time. Also the lack of AVX makes it not suitable for certain tasks, but if you're just gaming with some multitasking it doesn't matter too much. I'm actually going to X79 (P9X79 LE, I7 3930k) in about a week when my parts get here. 6c 12t is a minimum to me so that greatly limits what platforms I would use and good ddr4 is too expensive. lol
Not sure where u live but if u have a micro center....ddr4 is cheap
@@bossthearpy I'm in Canada, B.C. We don't have micro center here, at least where I live anyways. And yeah, ddr4 is cheaper than it was a few months ago, but the higher speed stuff with good latency still isn't cheap enough for me to consider. Also, been using the x79 parts since the 5th and it's been good so far.
Just got a Xeon X5675 for $30.
Got a EVGA FTW3 motherboard and 24 GB of Patriot DDR3 1600 for $175 this summer.. never OC'd a i7 920.
We've got the same board and CPU.
Was running my i7 920 at 4.2 GHz with hyperthreading on. At that point it was similar to a haswell i5 at the same clocks but a little better in multi-core tasks.
i got i7 920 on the same board clock at 4.2, around 650 on cenabench score
lemme know if u get an overclock more than 4ggz on all cores.
have fun cooling that thing
Awesome Vid bro, as you seen with my X58 Build i cooled the MB chipset with waterblocks as well just trying to push it even further with my X5675. Still love that platform for it's value considering how old it is.

Thanks for the informative video!
No better value than this content - keep up the great work!
Interesting to see how an old cpu can still game! Although I'd like to see this test done with a more realistic gpu, like a GTX 1060. If I had $1200 to shell out for a 2080 ti, I wouldn't be looking for a $20 cpu to pair it with!
Thinking the same thing. Would you say that you could max Apex legends or current titles with this CPU and a 1060 6gb? Just off top of your head
While i agree that a 1060 is a more fair comparison, it does show how realworld bottlenecking is not really a problem for those x58 xeons.
Real decision is this: buy a $50 xeon and as much gpu as i can afford
-vs-
upgrade platform (cpu, mobo, ram) +don't forget still need to upgrade gpu
What he just showed is it makes way more sense to do a cheap CPU upgrade on x58 and spend the extra money on a better GPU. (so get a 1080 instead of a 1060)
Do x58 chips support AVX? Some newer games require it to run.
no.... have this problem with my rampage II extreme & Xeon X5670....

@Martin Luther that's insane. With that mentality you could apply that to any hardware that changes over time. "Why isn't socket 754 still supported!!! It's forced obsolescence paid for by AMD!!"
Only games ware some ubisoft titles and they pached it so it dont need avx to run.
@@thepro08 AC Odyssey and The Crew 2 needed avx when they came out but now they pached it so it dont need anymore.
I have this x5660 xeon with 24gb ram and gtx1070, I'm really happy about it. I have since 2009 with i7 920. 2 years ago I switched the i7 to xeon x5660. I'm still with him today. incredible
Thanks for the tip on SCDKEY. I have used them 3 times so far.
Sadly, despite the LGA 1366 CPUs being very affordable, motherboards for it are scarce and expensive and kills any chance of it being a value product, even when buying used parts.

Great comparison video! Thanks for putting this together. What would have been even more interesting is if you also included how the 9900K would perform at an equal 4.5Ghz for a true apples to apples comparison in gaming.
Awesome video. I just upgraded my i7 2600K to a Xeon 5680 overclocked stable to 4.6 GHz (got a great deal on a complete X58 system and upgraded the 920 for 40 EUR).
Where does 1 find an x58 mobo? I cant seem to find a decent one under ~170
Ender Bartnik you have to get lucky, I got mine for 75$ with 12gb ram and a 950 i7. Most people sell just the board for over 150$
I'd try to look for i7 920 systems, they usually come with good mobos and then upgrade to tve xeon of your choice.
Kvlt Ov Freki yep, id recommend you sell the which ever i7 it comes with since their performance is not as impressive as xeons and their tdp is of a heater.

I prefer the x79 platform, it offers way more things, and I just love the MSI x79 Motherboard design :3
The argument with the rat kid continues? Oh yeessss!! xD
As an X58 i7-920 4ghz user, I will buy a x5650 or maybe x5675 Xeon, cause I already have a P6T Deluxe V2, 24GB RAM 3x250gb SSD in RAID to maximize it's performance, and a 1060 6gb.
BUT the X58 lacks of (CPU) PCI lanes, PCI Express 3.0, SATA3, USB3.. men, I spent big bucks on hardware to supply that.
Not to mention that Intel doesn't support X58 for Windows 10, and IRST just doesn't work (then you can't have RAID advantages to overcome SATA2). Also AVX lack is a bich.
If I had to buy a new system right now, i will go to a X79 system like the one discussed here, it's a yes-yes in my opinion, and it's impressive.
Yeah, you little rat kid are also right, your system rocks and you're smart to use the right pieces and strategy to get the maximum where others didn't see anything and spent that little money in modern crap, BUT you're not the only one that got the best with a smart move, and your shitty replies only got you down the toilet flush.

Andrew Edmondson my x79 Sabertooth and x58 gigabyte do not support ecc registered memory.
I started seeing your videos earlier this year and decided to build myself an x58 machine. From what I have done with it, it works great. It is currently used for gaming, however I feel it could do most anything I throw at it. I even got the CPU (x5675) to overclock to 4.2GHz. I could go higher with a better cooler (the configs are electrically stable), but with its current configuration it can already reach is TJunction in stress tests.

CAN you test the new huanan x79 motherboard on AliExpress pls
He's already tested them. They're not worth it
@@tang9538 I think there's an updated version with better vrms and i think overclocking support?
Jamzy I did a lot of research into these X79 boards last week when I was building my pc before eventually settling onto X58 cuz I found a nice UD3R for cheap. But the thing with all of these huanan x79 boards is that they use the C602 chipset which was made for servers not the consumer “X79”. The only overclocking supported on these boards is basic BCLK overclocking which is extremely limited since there’s no voltage control. There’s a ton of bios limitations and for the price you’re paying it’s just not worth it at all. Just buy a good B350 board and a R5 1600 and call it a day or if you’re dead set on X79 look out for local deals.

@@mustafaalosta8437 How is the 8100 better unless buying new considering value in which case Ryzen offers six cores with SMT for a similar price? Does your 8100 reach 4.4 GHz easily? No? You are not future proof unless you buy a Z-motherboard. Even a measily 6400 can clock higher than any current Coffelake non-k-chip ever will (4.8 GHz) for mine. Either get at least i5 or stay with 1151 or Ryzen imo. Rather low clocked quadcores aren't futureproof, especially if locked from stable overclocking not affecting PCIe.
😒 meh, yes of course the cpu's are fine but thats about it. 🙂 I wouldnt bother with those limited available pricey hitormiss used motherboards, instead wait for a steal on a T3500 T5500 T7500 or MacPro 4,1 or 5,1 or HPZ and throw in it a 5690 or 3690 ✌️😏
How do you oc on the workstations?
Cool video. I can definitely vouch for the value of good old Xeons. Watching this on my daily driver on an E3-1245 based Dell Precision T1600 with an RX 570 8GB from MSI.
Loved the video, Bryan! I'm rocking a E5-1650 V2 @ 4,7/1.36V on an X79-Deluxe. Could you please compare X79 hexas to the 9900K, and include Witcher 3? I'm curious on seeing how much of a difference there is. Looking forward to the X79 content
Tech yes is better than linus
Real test for normal people 👌
I think it is crazy to assume you need an extra 50 FPS atop 100
For me - 60 FPS is target and 30 FPS is min
It doesn't matter honestly anything higher than 60 for me because the monitors that are higher for me I dislike alot, I enjoy a really nice curved monitor at 60 FPS, so that's what I target, that's how I feel.
Why do you hate monitors that are higher than 60hz?
@@naksur2719 the human eye can't see more than 28 fps, how are you on the internet and not aware of this legendary fact? Why tire and strain your eyes, and waste electricity, creating 144hz, all so 116hz to go straight over your shoulders & reflect off your face? The power companies invented high refresh rates to sell you more.
@@BrownBabyJesus dude im draunk as fuck and cant tell if you ironic or not. If you ironic then well played but if you not then im gonna say that i have 144hz and its amazing. I cab clearlu thell the difderec between 60 and 144

I was debating on doing a 2700X build recently, this inspired me to look into further extending my first/current build (i7 930 @3.9, P6X58D Premium
, 24GB Memory, Sapphire RX580X and Various SSD's
) I just bought a 5680 along with upgrading to a simple CLC AIO. My board doesn't have native support of NVME but with an online workaround, was able to get one going and it's really nice so far. I still want to do a new build but this will be breathing new life into a very reliable and impressive platform.
I loved my X58... just sold it this year for a Ryzen setup. Still holds a place in my heart. Was always snappy, and ran great. Likely seeing a PCI limitation on x58.
What limitiation to be specific?
Now you have ask your self why is Intel CPU development taking steps backwards! milking us the consumer for maximum profit.
you know the goal of a company right ? make as much profit as possible ? if people keep buying it then you do nothing wrong.
@@Pomelu I know some people are not aware of it and are blind, small steps equals higher profits over larger increments.
RyRy XX how are you gathering from this it’s a step backwards. The majority of benches showed 50% increase in average and max FPS

Loved my old X5675, ran it with a 980Ti for ages until a buddy wanted the system and I went with a 6800k build.
Nice, i've been contemplating this for some time now. I still run an oc 920
I got my setup 10 years ago to do a Hackintosh. It's the GAX58. Just spent $10 on 6G Ram for a total of 12, upgraded to SSD and she's still running fine. I don't do high end gaming and that's a key thing. For regular gaming and regular use, it's hard to beat. I'd like to do the Xeon upgrade, but I really don't need more than it's got now. Nice to know I can for so cheap.
I've NEVER had any computer last 10 years before.
I am using a Lenovo C30 Dual Xeon system Originally, 2 X E5-2609s, now 2 X E5-2680s, 64 GB Ram. Baseunit was $US149+US$80 shipping, two E5-2680s were $US200 + $US25 shipping. 64GB Ram was $CAN72 from a local sup,us place. System was no built for gaming, but I do some light gaming on it. Cost for entire system was less than a Core i9 and X390 motherboard, locally. Graphics card is a GTX 1050Ti low profile. Works well for theboard layout/schematic captue/Spice simulations that I do with it. No slowdowns using it with Starcraft Ii, or Sins of A Solar Empire on a 27", 2560 X 1440 screen with maxed out settings.
Im still using a ex58 ud3r with a XEON w3565 in my gaming computer. I love it and havent had any problems.
Thanks for the video. Gave me a little more faith in my PC which I have been running for the last 7 years. Upgraded the original i7-920 twice and am currently running the x5680 6c/12t @3.3GHz. It has been water cooled for the last 5 years (more for longevity and consistency, than for OC). But knowing the capabilities, I may be bumping this up soon, so again thanks for the info.
ASUS P6T mobo with Xeon x5680 @3.33 GHz 6core stock
3x 4GB mushkin 10700

I will try and OC this chip soon and will let you know the results.
i love these kind of comparisons.Bring sandy bridge and whatever else is old to the mix versus new CPUs.Just keep on overclocking the ram because low speed ddr3 is a huge issue in 2018
I once had the Gigabyte x58 UD5 and it was an awesome overclocker. I got my x5650 to 4.8Ghz. Dialed it back to 4.5 though.
You always got sub bro nice videos keep going on i like it im still rock on x5460
am thinking of a xeon based build, so super excited by this.
@3en6ie Ah, I'm not in US, but thanks!
@3en6ie loads of good xeon workstations on ebay here, but also I am hitting up my best mate who works for a company which works on autonomous cars. I bet they have some spare machines. Or at least I hope so.
@3en6ie Haha. I just recently did the same. I bought the t1700 for $174 shipped off Ebay. Swapped my i5 4460 for the e3 1246 v3!
Overclocked a X5660 yesterday on a stock cooler to 4 GHz and it's prime95 stable for 1 hour, so close enough :-) great chip!
My x58 Xeon is doing just fine in 2018. I picked mine up for 10 bucks on ebay last year. Huge upgrade from my i7 930 quad core. Stress test for 24hrs highest temp was 71c max average was 63c at 4.3ghz Asus sabertooth x58 mobo. X58 was probably the best platform made in the last 15 years.
I'm still gaming on x58 :) i7 930. 1080p 60fps all day everyday. Never had a need to upgrade the CPU and this video shows why.
Affirmative on that apples-to-apples value comparison between new gen AMD and Intel. BTW, your videos inspired me to explore older tech and am happy I did. Thanks!
Love the vid ,got a x5675 4:5ghx after your older review (thanks )am also running 860evo m.2 on adapter, would love to see if you can get the 960 pro running on the same setup.
Great review Bryan.
Old hardware is more affordable for most of us. Plus I hate e-waste so would rather try to get the best out of old pc parts.
Cheers, Mon from Brisbane.
hey yeah I have a dx58so w/ the 920 i7 and antec sg850w psu with 16gb of mushkin redline ram. am thinking of upgrading to the 1366 x5690 eventually.. well done liked the vid.

Great video again. I'm interested to see how the i5 2500k clocked to the max performs
Bryan I discovered your channel a few years back and I've been rocking a x5875 on a Asus Rampage II ever since.
Dual X5670's here!
Use them in a dedicated Folding rig with 3x GTX770's
We're running comparisons (F@H) of the 9900k vs 6-core X58's over on the GeForce forums and the numbers (price per watt per ppd) are leaning towards the X58 units.
Rite now I'm getting an average of 67k PPD on a pair of X5670's ($50 per matched pair) non-overclocked, on an Asus D12 motherboard. Great units!
not a gamer but an enthusiast over the years primarily with AMD.. I took your advice and found an ASUS P6X58D-E with a XEON X5670 on ebay.au for $250 aussie .. I'm stoked .. haven't oc'd it yet as im after some cooler mounts or a cooler but you're right mate .. great package !! Thanks for the advice ... love old relevent gear
The only limitations I've found with coolers are the newer air coolers, for 1366 compatibility.
This video is very eye opening
Currently have an SR-2 in the works. 2 x5690s, 24gb Dominator GT. Really excited to see what it can do now that I've seen this video. I mean its not technically x58, but still....
Now I can buy more food, thank you Bryan, very cool.
Great video!! I'm still using my i7-980X and I'm happy with it!! Only thing is that it is running on stock speed, part of the reason is stock cooler and second part is my lack of knowledge on how to OC! You said to pick good MoBo for OC, is Asus P6T Deluxe v2 good??
Nice video. I have a Xeon X5460 modded to 775 and oveclocked to 4.2 GHz and it rocks

I have a GA-x58a-ud3r v2 and recently swapped from an i7 930 and ATI 5770 to an x5690 and AMD RX 570. Good bang for the buck for a 9 year old system.
I replaced my w3680 system (o/c'd to 4.4hgz, 24gb ram, 3x ssd's, 2tb hd, blu-ray drive, etc.) a couple weeks ago with a 8086k setup (o/c'd to 5.2ghz, 32gb ram, m.2, ssd, 4tb hd, the old blu-ray drive). That w3680 was a good upgrade over the i7 920 c0/1 stepping that I originally put in the system and had drop in support on the Gigabyte g1 motherboard I was using. That x58 was a great little system that lasted several years and played games smoothly at 4k with high settings with a pair of gtx 970's in sli (I had replaced the 970's before getting the new system with 1070ti's that I picked up at launch). Anyway, the mobo was starting to show its age and was having random issues that were getting annoying. Instead of investing in another x58, I decided to put that money into a new system that I expect to have for several years. Night and day difference between the two systems in regards to performance (I'd sure hope so, anyway!) and if I manage to blow up the new system, I'll still have the old one to kick around. lol Anyway, nice video. It would have been nice to see what difference it would have made if the 9900k was dropped to 4.5ghz for all those tests (architecture differences aside).
