We Test a $1,000 CPU From 2010 vs. Ryzen 3
#ThrowBackThursday Today we're going to have a bit of benchmark fun as we test out a processor we reviewed in 2010. The Core i7-980X was a hexacore beast, but how does it stack up 8 years later? To find out I'm going to compare it with a whole heap of modern processors, including the dinky little $100 Ryzen 3 2200G.

The perfect case for our 32-thread dual-Xeon monster PC?
TechSpot reader daftfader's mind is made up: he's going to build the budget 16-core, 32-thread dual-Xeon PC we explored earlier this year. However, he's not so sure about what chassis would be ideal for housing such a beast. What say you?
Building an Affordable 16-Core, 32-Thread Xeon Monster PC
#ThrowbackThursday Released in 2012 for a whopping $1,550, thousands of Xeon E5-2670 CPUs have hit the secondhand market as data centers upgraded their servers. This 4-year old CPU delivers 8 cores clocked at 2.6GHz with a 3.3GHz turbo frequency and a large 20MB L3 cache, but with supply overwhelming demand prices have plummeted. Or seen from another perspective: it's now possible to build an insanely affordable 16-core/32-thread beast for less than a flagship Core i7.
Here We Go Again: 40-Thread Xeon PC for less than a Broadwell-E Core i7
Following up to our popular 32-thread Xeon PC feature, we've been in the hunt for affordable Xeon processors based on more modern architectures. Our search put us on the trail of Intel's Xeon E5 2630 v4, a 10-core Broadwell-EP part (40 threads for 2 CPUs) that can be found for less - with a catch - so we put together a system to show off what's on offer here.
