Excellent processor

I was reluctant at first to purchase the 2.7ghz version of this cpu vs the higher priced 3.1ghz E5-2687W, assuming that the lower clock would make my single threaded experience unreliably slow.

16 cores; Amazing for multi-threaded jobs like rendering etc

No overclocking supported; Very insignificant performance increases capable with the SR-X board

E5-2680

Upgraded from a E5-1650 to this processor. It was delivered in the condition promised.

Void at all cost

Very poor overall. Poor description, poor service and poor communication.
