My office gave me a sweet new Lenovo ThinkStation for ArchiCAD and AutoCAD work. Here are some benchmarks for a 6 core Xeon processor.
MAME 0.165 64bit Windows 7 64bit
(Xeon E5-1650ver3 @ 3.5ghz)--vs--(i7-6700k @ 4.0ghz) 6 cores--------------------vs--4 cores 24gb Ram
Blitz: 264------------321 Dolphin: 27------------44 gauntleg: 275--------440 Gradius: 198----------255 Propcycl: 136--------179 Radikalb: 190---------269 Scud: 146-------------94 Starsldr: 116---------118
Perhaps of interest: I use the "All CPU Meter" gadget that shows activity from the 6 x2 cores. For the most part activity among the cores was sporadic. Starslder however showed activity equally spread out among the 6 physical cores with no multi-threading.
The performance of the xeon chip compared with others mentioned in the forum placed it based on its cpu speed except for starsldr where it clearly excelled though the i7-6700k running at 4ghz beat it just barely with a score of 118.32
Bottom line, unless the xeon chip is good at overclocking, its not worth the extra $200 or so for the 6 core chip. The i7-6700k is a very impressive cpu
