I don't know how I ended up on this page : <a href="http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/deals?~ck=mn#!dlpgid=poweredge-tower-server-deals" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/deals?~ck=mn#!dlpgid=poweredge-tower-server-deals</a> Probably because I am always looking for deals.<br>
<br>
That is what prompted my question about i3/i5/i7 vs Intel Xeon.<br>
<br>
I was looking at the PowerEdge T110 II Tower Server which is selling for $369.00. I was thinking it would be nice to upgrade this to 16GB and add a couple HD's to it (that I can get off new egg) and configure as RAID 1. Add a couple inexpensive video cards and potentially drive 4 flat screens. The CPU Intel Xeon E3-1230 v2 is smoken' hot!! 4 cores and 8 threads. And the benchmark is plenty good. <a href="http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+E3-1230+V2+%40+3.30GHz" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=Intel+Xeon+E3-1230+V2+%40+3.30GHz</a><br>
<br>
This might only cost $1300 or $1400 for everything.<br>
<br>
Or use it to build a very nice web server.<div><div class="h5"><br>

I7 is quad core, Xeon can go to 18 core and have dual procs. We are<br>
currently considering Power Edge blades with 2x14 cores to build<br>
private cloud.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I was browsing Dell's PowerEdge servers and noticed they use the<br>
Intel Xeon. I was wondering what might be the advantage of a Intel<br>
Xeon vs. an i3/i5/i7 ?<br>
<br>
Any thoughts?<br>
