rxnelson Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I bought those dual E5 rigs that were going for cheap some time ago. I have been thinking of swapping that out for an AMD x570. If I go high end I'll keep the same number of cores and threads but in a reduced form factor and probably power draw. However, the E5s have been set it and forget it. Any opinion on swapping to Ryzen? I don't do a ton with it. Sage, a test VM, Plex, not really hammering it with anything. Quote Link to comment
_rogue Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I just switched from a 2x E5-2660v2 system to a Ryzen 5 5600X system. Consuming close to 200W less under load. Quote Link to comment
