With all cores active, the Xeon E5-2670'southward operating frequency is 13% lower than that of the Core i7-5960X. Keep in listen that the 5960X is built effectually a much newer and more ability-efficient CPU architecture - all the same the E5-2670 consumed eighteen% less power in the Prime95 stress test. Of course the motherboard tin also business relationship for quite a bit of ability usage, but even so, this is an impressive outcome for the E5-2670.

Throwing in a 2d E5-2670 for a 16-core load, nosotros encounter the ability consumption jump to 343 watts, which is just over 80% more than what we saw with the single Xeon.

The Hybrid power consumption results are similar to those seen when testing with Prime number 95. That said, the dual Xeons aren't being stressed quite as much, though we withal run across a 75% increase in power consumption when moving to dual processors. Still, the 302 watt describe isn't all that crazy, equally the dual Xeons merely consumed 33% more power than a single 5960X.

Finally, we see a 74% increase in power consumption when calculation a second Xeon E5-2670 processor and the duo consumed 40% more power than the 5960X.
