We're reviewing the Jingsha X99 "Two-Way" motherboard today, featuring 2x 12-core Intel Xeon CPUs for 48 total threads. 2x CPUs and the board cost less than one 3900X. Benchmarks within.
GN Wireframe Mousemats will be back in stock soon! Guarantee you're on the list here: store.gamersnexus.net/product... We sold through fast last time, so we're taking back orders early so that you don't have to keep checking back for the restock date. The Wireframe Mouse Mat is a high-quality, durable mat with high print resolution and custom features, and quickly became our fastest-selling item on the store.

We really enjoy working with old hardware, especially when it's been reworked into a new product. A lot of these motherboards are uniquely made by ripping old chipsets from e-waste motherboards (like ones that stopped working), then gluing all the salvaged parts together into a new product. This one is the Jing4sha1 Shuang1lu4 motherboard, or the "Two-Way" dual-X99 Jingsha board. We combined it with two Xeon CPUs, but also bought a third Xeon at 14C for $70. The total cost to get the two 12C CPUs (about $100 each) and the motherboard was around $360, making this one of the cheapest ways to get so many threads. Although scavenging for retired hardware is a lot of fun, modern CPU advancements have threatened the viability of solutions like this. As such, we'll be testing it against far cheaper solutions for gaming -- like the R3 3100 and 3300X -- and more expensive solutions for work (like the 3900X).

It doesn't even fit well for a workstation. It's completely ignoring half of the memory channels and 90% of the CPU PCIe lanes. The main things you go Xeon for, aren't here. Despite the built-in GPU, the missing memory channels and PCIe lanes- and no x4 PCIe slots- make it really limited for server usage.

@4.0.4 3 года назад

@@bobprivate8575 because it's not for server use. There's a reason these are cheap, people running computers 24/7 throw these out for newer ones! As far as workstation goes, there are SFF Xeons and Threadrippers so that should tell you something about PCIe lanes not being always the focus. Some people just want a lot of cores. And for some scenarios, maybe you could jank up a ghetto workstation from old Xeons that almost makes sense.

That AST2400 is an IPMI chip: it is used in servers for monitors as it has some very beefy capabilities: it can monitor hardware states and even flash the bios, remotely, even with the system off and even with the system with no CPU installed, over the internet. This feature alone could make it desirable for FreeNAS and Homelab enthusiasts as a similar board for AM4 to run say, a 3900x would run you 400 to 500 USD. You get some similar tech like high number of sata drives, access to ECC which is normally not present on AM4 boards and even newer connectivity for storage like U.2 or Oculink connectors and SAS ones too but the rock bottom price of these make it attractive specially for dumpter drivers: you could salvage a mostly busted server and just get this board and CPUs which would be as costly as the entire discarded server each but you get a potentially working 2U chasis, fans, several hard drives that might still be good enough for just a home lab to play around with, interface cards, raid controllers, etc. So it has its uses. Not many but it is possible to make something out of this, Wendell for example could probably rebuild your NAS with it on the cheap if you ever needed to.

@No-vv7rp 3 года назад

While these cpus obviously aren't amazing in gaming, they do have some applications elsewhere. If you instead look at E5 2600 v2 CPUs rather than v3/v4, you can use DDR3 ram rather than DDR4. This sounds like a downgrade, but high capacity server DDR3 dims are ~1/3 the price on eBay per gb vs. DDR4, so if you need to build a server with 256gb of ram or more and ram bandwidth doesn't really matter, it's an interesting use case. Additionally, while the individual cores on these CPUs aren't too powerful, having a ton of them makes working with tons of VMs a lot easier. Finally, since these CPUs have 40 PCIe lanes each, you can get a board like an Asus Z9PE-D16 that has 6 PCIe x16 3.0 slots if you want to make a GPU compute server on a budget.

@ChrisD__ 3 года назад

The RAM thing is really making it hard for me to decide between X99, X79, and staying on Sandy Bridge... I do a lot of digital sculpting and modeling in Blender, and I make games. So the 3 biggest things I need my next upgrade to do are super high poly sculpting, having all my tools open at once, and actually, be able to compile the game engine (Godot in this case) relatively quickly - currently takes ~40 minutes or so on the i3-2100 and 5400RPM every few times I pull from master. But of course, if I go with X99, I won't be able to afford as much RAM, as good of an SSD, or a new WiFi card. If I go with X79, I can probably afford a good SSD, and more RAM than I might ever use, and maybe a WiFi card. If I go with an E3-1240 v1, I can afford everything else for sure, but I'll have to stick with this weird Optiplex motherboard that has the SATA ports blocked by the GPU I got as a gift and non-standard front panel connector.

Something that should be added is that you need to look at the advanced settings and see if there is a setting for NUMA (non uniform memory access). As this setting prevents data sharing across memory banks on multiple processors. I think it would make a huge difference in your results for game tests as well as other benchmarks. Dual socket systems are not easy to configure. They require much research and understanding of the platform.

Plenty of excellent RU-vid tutorials, benchmarking, and reviews by Miyconst on these X79 and X99 motherboards from China. My second PC...the one I am using now...has a XEON E5-2678V3 (12 core/24 thread) that I purchased for US$85 on eBay. The motherboard, a HuananZhi X99TF which I purchased off of AliExpress from $99. Using the turbo unlock tutorial and zipped tools from Miyconst, I removed a certain microcode in the BIOS to get all cores running at 3.3.Ghz. The modded BIOS was done in under 20 minutes with this guide, first time around. Temps under stress...never go above 60C with a dual RGB 120mm SNOWMAN tower cooler (6 x 6mm pipes) for $32. Cinebench R15 = 1824 / R20= 3912. This combo will accommodate either DDR3 or DDR4, as the CPU is compatible AND the motherboard has dedicated RAM slots (4 for DDR3 and 4 for DDR4)*. I am using 4x8GB of Mushkin REDLINE (1866Mhz) desktop DDR3; in QUAD channel. There are only ~7 Haswells that accommodate DDR3, I believe only 5 for the LGA-2011(3) socket. Fun to build and the quality of the X99TF from HuananZhi was surprisingly good. The PCIE slots are stainless steel shrouded and the VRM heatsink is actively cooled. The board substrate itself is hefty layered and this MB integrates RGB in its IO shroud. Has two NVME m.2 slots too, with one currently as my bootable OS drive. Also, a wifi/bt m.2 slot, which currently has an AX200 wifi 6 / BT 5.1 card inside it ($17).

4 years ago I built a 2x E5-2686v3 system. The CPU's were ~290 at the time. I did the EFI mod when it came out about a year later. I was able to get all 36 cores running at 3.1 GHz, although it would no longer turbo up to 3.5 single core... It was running on an as-rock board, I can't remember the exact model. I sold it right before threadripper 2 came out. It had a 135 TDP but must have been able to draw more than that. Also, the E5-2699v3 could be boosted up to all core turbo of I think 3.8 on all cores depending on which board you had. Love this content Steve! Would love to see the 18th core with the high turbo in an x99 board with the BIOS mod and see how it does in gaming.... Also, I found that disabling course or a CPU could make a really big difference due to the CPU to CPU latency and the way that the system seemed to use cache. Cool stuff!

the X99-F8D is probably the best Chinese dual X99 motherboard currently available. Excellent for an editing and rendering rig as you can add a decent GPU and more than one RAID controller for GPU accelerator and very large RAID arrays as the same time in the same chassis. It's also a board well used by Miyconst and has great community BIOS support. Absolutely don't buy a dual CPU board if you want to game. Better to spend the money on a single socket and get a higher clock speed CPU instead.

I would definitely love to see a lower core, higher clock speed single socket setup on the x79 and x99 setups. 1660v2's, 2667v3's, anything really. The older xeon have slower clock speeds, but higher L3 cache counts. 8-c/16-th combos are cheap and have higher clock speeds. The V3's went higher in core counts in favor of lower clocks. The V2's also have a higher cpu diversity. Definitely loved the information! Level 1 tech compared a Xeon 2680 v1 to a 7900X and it fared relatively well in gaming! Looking forward to more videos on xeon builds! They are a great alternative to modern cpus, if you're on a tight budget and want more cores/threads.

@g3monster89 3 года назад

Gaming performance can be improved by limiting the threads available to the game to only those on the primary cpu as this will reduce latency when the game seeks data over the bus from the caches on the second cpu...Won't help with seeking data from cpu2 memory but in my experience it can dramatically reduce the stuttering.

@zanderbest9711 3 года назад

Ayy, I see you've discovered the magic of ES/QS Xeons. This has been a poorly kept secret for a while. The main thing to keep in mind with purchasing such CPU's (aside from passing general reputable seller smell test) is checking the listed stepping of the cpu in question, and checking that with listed launch retail stepping of the same sku. The further removed the stepping of the ES/QS cpu is from the (post)release steppings is, the more likely you are to encounter issues (eg, a B0 stepping ES vs an M0 stepping release is a big delta, whereas L0 vs M0 is much closer, and is effectively a "public beta" or release candidate, to borrow a software versioning analogy). It's also worth noting that factory base/boost limits may be slightly different than release spec, and as you pointed out, these are/can be unlocked to an extent. The value prospect of ES/QS is diminished these days now that AMD (and now intel, somewhat) has finally broken out of the 4c/8t paradigm on the consumer side, but if you need cheap multicore, abundant PCIe lanes (w/ PEX/PLX chips), and or abundant memory capacity w/ Registered ECC support, they're still generally a great value. The price of ES/QS chips largely scales with base/boost clocks (eg, E5-2667 v3's will typically go for MUCH more than a E5-2650 v4). In otherwords, for gaming, they're not necessarily ideal (as you've discovered), but for a workstation or cheap whitebox server build (database, memcache, etc), they certainly have their niche. It's also worth pointing out you can sometimes put E5-16xx and E5-46xx ES/QS CPU's in C602/C612 (depending on Xbridge vs Xwell generations) boards. As I'm sure you've guessed, that'll depend on whether the respective mainboards have the blacklist/whitelist microcode for those. This is worth mentioning as the 4000 series cpu's often go for cheaper than their 2000 or 1000 counterparts as they're only *officially* supported in 4P-8P type systems (eg, R830) and thus demand is lower. However, I've successfully gotten E5-4627 v2 ES's working in C602 motherboards (Asus z9PE, Dell R620). Afterall there's a difference between "Supported" and "Functional". All that said, this is a pretty cool board. I'll stick to buying surplus UCS C240 M4S and Dell R630/R730's for now (generally cheaper overall) but it's nice to see that these boards aren't just some scam and actually have a functional purpose in the whitebox homelab space.

I love this video. Just so unique and interesting, although perhaps not so useful... I'd love to see a revisit to this platform with instead one of the single socket "bords" paired with something like the E5-2699v3 or the OEM E5-2696v3, with the all-turbo mod which is rumored (the OEM version) to boost to 3.8GHz. These chips are going for just $40 U.S., making the board the most expensive part. That might be interesting in compliler and render workloads for less than $150. And with just a single CPu at 3.8GHz, it might even be able to produce some acceptable frames? Though gaming would obviously not be the primary use case, but it might actually be a relevant budget option for people launching on YT or things of that nature. I'm curious, but I don't have $$ just to throw away on a curiosity... Anyway, really, really enjoy this vid. Thanks.

@ProfDrOetker 3 года назад

Dual sockets blows at gaming possibly because a) it has NUMA enabled and b) the games does not try to run NUMA-aware. So the half of games' threads run at CPU0 and the other half at CPU1. Then CPU0 tries to access something CPU1 allocated. This incurs massive memory latency penalties as CPU0 has to wait for reads over NUMA bridge. I bet games with fewer threads would run faster than more threads because of this.
