Sorry, but i missed your post. Yes, all was working fine but have an upgrade on the way...

Yeah the 2500 is nice but lacks HT. And since i like to have 2 or more VM´s running simultaniously it didn´t quite fill my needs. So i´m upgrading this piece of machinery to an old s1366 Sabertooth x58 with an Xeon X5680 instead. 6 Cores 12 Threads for ~$100 on ebay. This setup will fill all my needs and more. Thought i´d pair it with 2 x GTX660 in SLI since i have 2 laying around.
Just wish i got my hands on a S2011 X79 mobo instead. Then i could have got an Xeon E5-2670 instead with 8 Cores and 16 threads for the same price as the X5680....
No more need for upgrade in the near future with any of the CPU´s...

[QUOTE="nclr11111, post: 600128, member: 51"] Sorry, but i missed your post. Yes, all was working fine but have an upgrade on the way... ;) Yeah the 2500 is nice but lacks HT. And since i like to have 2 or more VM´s running simultaniously it didn´t quite fill my needs. So i´m upgrading this piece of machinery to an old s1366 Sabertooth x58 with an Xeon X5680 instead. 6 Cores 12 Threads for ~$100 on ebay. This setup will fill all my needs and more. Thought i´d pair it with 2 x GTX660 in SLI since i have 2 laying around. Just wish i got my hands on a S2011 X79 mobo instead. Then i could have got an Xeon E5-2670 instead with 8 Cores and 16 threads for the same price as the X5680.... :D No more need for upgrade in the near future with any of the CPU´s... [/QUOTE]
