Ok then,I guess I wont be going Skylake then.I just thought maybe that with the newer instruction sets in the skylake it may be faster at encoding and transcoding then the Xeon E5 series.Anyhow Raduque did you try out your new motherboard? Did it end up working or haven't you got to it yet? Also dont know if this is a thing or not but it seems the E5-2670's dont like memory over 1600?? I have a set of G.skill 1866 and 2400 and both auto set to 1600?I tried to manually set them higher and even tried XMP but its the same every time. I even tried updating bios to the newest but no luck. I tried them out in my AMD rig and they test out in perfect working order no errors with the above speeds.Totally Odd!!
You can't overclock these xeons at all. Not even ram.
