I think you have the highest score of Mac pro 5,1 that I have seen, below is another one close to your machine on primate lab benchmark...

This is an upgrade from 2x X5650 and 12GB RAM, pulled the X5690 CPUs and RAM from my Supermicro workstation (now decommissioned
).Only part left intact was the Apple SSD.
Yeh I agree it's a bit confusing... everywhere I've seen listed the memory speed is 8x or 1066MHz, but on my EVGA SR-2 board with everything on auto/defaults it lists at 1333MHz which is 10x.
As you can see from my other GB2 results with everything on default stock settings OSX recognizes it as 1333MHz.

Ok so the mystery further unfolds... when installed in a genuine mac pro the memory speed shows as 1066MHz
Hi
Resurrecting a thread, as I'm about to flash and cpu upgrade a 4,1. I have a chance to buy these x5679, but as there's so few people who've done so I would like to know more.
How do we know about the memory speed when these are put into an actual mac?
I have a chance to buy new ones for a pretty fair price, bringing them in under the price of either the x5680 or x5690 used, and not a huge amount more than the x5675
Any idea how I would be impacted by that in the real world? I have read that the speed difference is 25% on paper/theory, more like 2/3% in practice
Down the page under "ram rules"

Does that impact single thread speed? Do you think I'd even notice?
