Intel processor buying tips

I am looking for the appropriate processor double taking $15-20 K range esx hosts.  We are a boutique of HP and stick to intel for VMOTION with our existing esx hosts.

(1) is the hexagonal base 7400 series one?  I was set to zero on the 7460, but a person of intel at a VMUG was told there there VMMark results indicating the cheapest hearts series 5500 scored comparable or superior... is there a standard place to find this info?

(2) more general question: a Ghz is always a Ghz, even with the same company?  Example: my 3 yr old 5160 is 3 Ghz dual-core, so in total 6 Ghz available.  Let's say I buy a 5500 dual core @ 2.5 Ghz, so it gives me a total of 10 Ghz.  The calculation is as simple, or my VM also potentially will require less Ghz if migrated to a new proc?

Thank you

Jaime

The HP DL 580 G5 is replaced in March 2010, through the nehalem ex. It uses the ancient architecture of the fsb, which has no integrated memory controller.

  • Laptop HP 15-ac176na: update BIOS (Intel processors)

    Hello

    I was download the updates from the HP support Assistant.  3 updated driver installed fine, but the update BIOS for Intel processors just to be on the road all day.  It seemed to download ok, the blue bar filled and he said that it was installing, but never finished because I had to stop going to bed.

    How long does take to install?  HP laptop laptop 15-ac176na.

    Thank you

    Paul

    Hi Paul,.

    There seems to be a listed version between your and the update offered - F.1E Rev.A (provides microcode update CPU)-the HP bios updates are almost always cumulative, but I saw a few times when it's bbe made in order, then it can be interesting to see if F.1E Rev.A Flash correctly - if this is the case, try to rerun F.1F Rev.A

    F.1E Rev.A is on the following link

    http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74001-74500/sp74374.exe

    Once the download is complete, close other open windows and programs, then open your download folder and double-click the installer to start the process.  The real flash will occur when you restart the machine - do not interrupt it somehow, even if nothing seems to be happening for a while - when it is finished, the machine will load in Windows as usual.

    Kind regards

  • HP Envy x 360: updated HP Notebook System Bios (Intel processor)

    I updated my BIOS version before (about a month) but I just found out that the HP Notebook System Bios Update (Intel processor) would have been forgotten. I actually cancelled this update and when I tried to do it again once it does me no more. I contacted the HP Chat Support at that time here and they said that my laptop was very good. I got a blue screen of death once and that's all. It was the only issue I've had with my laptop. After that I have updated to the latest version of the update of the birthday a week ago w10. I don't have any problems with it, my laptop works well. I have not encountered any problems. I just reccently bought this 2 months ago.

    Well recently, I got an update in the HP Support Assistant about an update to the Intel 10 series driver. I contacted HP Chat Support and they said that my laptop doesn't have the driver. It was an update General and not directed to any specific PC. Long story short, he said as I have no need, I don't need to update and that my laptop was fine. The Windows 10 anniversary update... Well updates everything that said the tech.

    I was just wondering:

    1. is the HP Notebook System BIOS (Intel processor) update updated CRITICISM that I really need to find a link or something to update?

    2. is it harmful that I have doesn't have the update?

    3. do I really need updating?

    4. is this the reason that the HP Support Assistant advised me on the Intel 10 series driver?

    My Version of the Driver is: 20.19.15.4377

    I hope that I have provided all the information that might help you to help me solve my problem.

    Answer all my answers and also explain are GREATLY appreciated.

    I thank very you much in advance!

    @PaulineTan

    Thanks for the reply to my post,

    And Yes you have covered everything, I hope!

    The 10-anniversary of windows update would install all updates driver concerned as well, so the BSOD issue you referred previously.

    (1) Although the update is not important, you can go ahead and install it as at the moment (this is optional).

    (2) Yes, you can, basically, there is nothing to worry about.

    (3) No, it is not critical.

    (4) No, it will not damage your computer.

    More updates to the bios contains a fix for the specific issues, published by the manufacturer of the motherboard (bios) and at this point because you don't have any problems on the computer, you don't have to install it.

    Let me know, if you need anything else!

    Kind regards.

  • ProBook 450 G2: Upgraded to the 6th generation 4th generation intel processor core i5 to skylake

    My laptop is HP Probook 450 G2. And my processor is 4th generation Intel Core i5. So, I want to upgrade my processor CPU 4th generation intel core i5 to 6th generation intel processor core i5 to skylake. Can I put my 4th generation CPU intel core i5 processor in the 6th generation intel core i5 processor skylake? Pls tell me

    Laughing out loud

    You can't do this for a simple reason.

    The processor on the motherboard socket are not identical.

    4th generation Intel core i5 mobile CPU uses socket 1150

    6th generation Intel core i5 mobile CPU uses socket 1440

    It's a bit like trying to plug the power plug of the American unit to an electric outlet of the European House.

  • The upgrade of Intel processors

    I have a HP Touchsmart want Ultrabook 4, and I'm interested in upgrading my Intel Core i5 processor to the fourth generation (from the third generation). It is even possible, and if this is the case, how can I do to upgrade? I only want to upgrade to a better graphics card. Thank you!

    This article refers only to upgrade (read REPLACEMENT) your device (COMPUTER) with a new one containing the 4th Gen Intel CPU. The facts seem to point to 4th Gen Intel processors requiring that all new sockets with greater spindle counts compared to their Gen 3 processors. If this is the case, no upgrade BIOS will make possible.

  • Problems after "WinFlash BIOS (for notebooks with Intel processors)" HP Pavilion dv6-1129tx

    Evening ladies and gentlemen.

    I installed an update for my HP Pavilion dv6-1129tx Entertainment Notebook PC today (see details below). Against my better judgment I thought having the latest version of the BIOS might be a good idea, even if my laptop worked fine as-is.

    After update BIOS F.24 I now have the following questions:

    (1) when the display on the laptop turns off due to being slowed down 20 minutes, he don't come back now. If I press any key to wake up, he will the internal speaker beep. As soon as I press power it turns directly to the output instantly.

    (2) I can restart is no longer. The portable computer shuts down normally, but when he tries to go back on it starts, but windows is not loaded and it just hangs. I have to turn off by pressing the power button, then turn it back on.

    I installed it just this afternoon and I am posting this a few hours later, so I don't have time to notice other problems of performance after the update.

    Long story short, does anyone know or have the original BIOS for my laptop (sp43821)? Or has someone at - it had the same problem and found a solution?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Enhanced VMotion between Intel processor models

    Slowly, we have extended our VM environment over the past two years. However, we do want to make a major leap of older models of Intel processors for the newer models. Therefore, we would like enable VMotion improved on our ESX host.

    I read in the KB Article #1003212, which was quite useful. However, I guess I'm a little unclear about what if our old processors will be able to VMotion between some of the latest processors from Intel.

    Currently, we use the Intel 5100 Series (Woodcrest) (part of the family of Merom) processors. Based on the maps in the Article, we can vMotion between 7300 (Tigerton) or 5500 (Nehalem)?

    For what it's worth, we are running ESX 3.5 u4. However, we have all intentions on the upgrade to vSphere in the future near semi.

    Thanks for reading this question and I appreciate all the answers!

    ~ Bill

    VCA is the solution and could be the use of the latest versions of ESX 3.5.

    You must enable at the cluster level, in an empty cluster.

  • Intel processors compatible with my device

    Hello world:

    I have a Gigabyte Motherboard GA-Z77-DS3H. It uses an Intel i3, 2-wire, 3.3 Ghz, LGA 1155 CPU.  In case I needed to buy another, Microsoft is still do this processor?   Or the one who would be compatible?    Now, I'm looking for (or price) spare parts for my computer.  In this way, after a breakup, I already have the spare parts.

    In case I needed to buy another, Microsoft is still do this processor?   Or the one who would be compatible?    Now, I'm looking for (or price) spare parts for my computer.  In this way, after a breakup, I already have the spare parts.

    Microsoft does not processors. Intel makes.

    It is very rare for processors to decompose. In my 30 years of PC maintenance, occupy more than a thousand pieces, I have never seen one. Buying a spare CPU part, is probably a waste of money. If you insist then you could probably keep its CPU or motherboard for spare parts and meet an old PC on the second-hand market.

  • Thoughts on vmotion between Intel processors. Success?

    We currently have a cluster with processors Intel X 5540. I think to add a few servers with the new X 5650 processors. Has anyone tried for vmotion on these processors? According to vmware, the process is expermential and I need to apply the mask to the SSA to do. Just curious to know if anyone has had any success in the real world, before I have to buy new servers.

    Actually, my bad. Turn on I don't installed U1 on my server vCenter, so it wasn't able to recognize the CPU as a VCA couldn't. As soon as I upgraded vCenter to the latest version, all came good. VCA is now working with happiness between a X 5650 and two E5345s.

  • 27 "iMac buying tips

    After waiting 2 years for an upgrade to the Mac Pro 2013, I decided to settle for a 27 "iMac.  "Read a few reviews that suggest the fastest iMac27 2015" 4.0 GHZ with 64 GB of ram is actually faster than the Mac Pro 2013 when working on 20 GB files in Photoshop.  It is the general consensus?

    As I wanted to buy this 4.0 GHZ iMac 27 "However, I don't see for sale at Apple.com or my store of the local computer.   I don't see a 3.3GHz version.   Apple.com also says the max RAM, you can install is 32 GB.    I see 30 different versions of a 4.0 GHZ on B & H well, but how can ensure me that I get the maxed out very fast available from 27 "iMac?  Faster processor, more ram, faster hard drive etc etc.  etc.

    Apple does not officially support 64GB, then buy the computer with 8 GB RAM database and then update yourself using OWC (www.macsales.com) RAM. Officially, Apple supports 32GB.

    If you want the fastest, don't you a hard drive. Buy an SSD.

    In addition, because you don't say what you plan to use the computer so that you are sure this is not only a waste of money buy a maxed out iMac? Just a question.

  • Hello! I want to replace Intel Pentium T4300 processor Intel processor QX9300. Is it possible?

    Acer does not show on the T4300 CPU upgrade. I don't think that the QX9300 will work just because I saw others trying to upgrade a T a q and it never worked.

    If you can find a seller that it will have to come back if it doesn't work, give it a try.

    I would probably try the T9500 or 9600 T if I was going to upgrade this laptop. T4400 to T9600 worked for me on a Dell computer.
