Does anyone have any benchmarking information on the new Xeon E7-4830? I am looking at a dual and quad Prolaint DL 580 G7 and would love to see how these CPUs rate.
Version 8 of PerformanceTest will support 256 cores. An early beta should be out in the next month or two.
Note that software you are using might require special modifications to support more than 64 cores. Once you get past the 64 core level you the developer needs to take into account 'processor groups'. See, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...(v=vs.85).aspx
It's going to be a VMware Server but for performance testing I threw Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacentre Edition on it so it could use all the cores... I was hoping to get the top benchmark score... The processors are E7-4870's. I'm so drooling over my new toy...
