Interesting early samples used to test disabling of cores in the SB-EP processors.

Samples predate even the original SB lol

Neat!
Things get even more complicated with two and three ring buses,
making cores measurably non equal for latency sensitive tasks.

Interesting story )) Sandy Bridge was firts great core on modern times. Its very progressive and fast core, all other derivatives of it. I'm write there on i7 2600K and do not plan upgrade it in near future, but may be on 2700K Very Happy
John you must find suitable lga2011 board and run them ))

That is an interesting concept that Intel developed to validate the dies before packaging Smile
