I changed the CPU of my Gen 8

[thiagotgc 0]

Hello friends.

 

Today two CPUs arrived for my two Gen 8 servers

 

I had bought two different models

 

Quote

1 - Xeon E3-1220L v2
1 - Xeon E3-1265L v2

 

However, the seller sent the first model wrong, and sent me a Xeon E3-1220 v2

 

According to this comparison LINK he two are very similar.

 

I used thermal paste MX-4 (2020), and put heatsinks on the other chipset on the motherboard.

 

The speed of FAN today, in both GEN8 is 6%

 

I know that the Xeon E3-1220 v2 consumes much more energy, but can this be a problem? It seems to be slightly better than the Xeon E3-1265L v2.

 

Between these two models, which is better in performance?

I'd take the 1265, it has hyperthreading and runs cooler.

 

Bit more useful info here on ARK.

TDP of 69W is very high, even with the 65W replacement cooler from HP that costs a fortune, so I personally wouldn't use that CPU.
