Hi,

I am going to buy a xeon type e5-2670v3: 2.3 GHz with a turbo mode to 3.1ghz

The turbo mode works if the software works with only one core (perhaps nt7 for exemple)...
Somebody has try if it is réal, if it works?

Or it is only marketing...

Turbo mode works.
Unless you'll go with a dual-scoket machine which has to run 24/7/365, you should get an high-end i7 instead of a Xeon. The chip, the motherboard, the memory will be cheaper for basically the same horse-power.

That looks like overkill. An 8 core chip is designed for speed. With NT7, speed is not everything, you also need a ROOMY core to fit the inefficient program. the smaller the core gets, the more time the OS has to spend swapping pieces of the the program in and out in order to do what it needs to do. This is what creates Lag. It spend more time swapping segments of NT7 than calculating.
I suggest you wait until NT8 comes out; Or, move to MC (if you do not have to stay with Ninja due to specific plug-in needs).

I am sorry but i did not understood What u mean : i did not understood "Romy", "the smaller core....", "swapping pieces"...

And about lagging..., swapping segment ...?? OS is windows, nô?

Can u explain me with other words, please? What u mean about "create lag", ty.

Do u want to say that it is. Better to buy a cpu with High fréquency...

I7-5960 and e5-1650v3 is equivalent for exemple about fréquency...

Merci
Thank u

I have attached a pdf file where I have attempted to answer your question. Hardware/Software integration is a "huge" field in the world today. Just about everything is being populated with chips and software that has to fit together to achieve a specific purpose. If the software can't run flawlessly through the hardware, there are problems.
I hope this helps.

Dude, I use a Mobile Pentium with NinjaTrader just fine, what you need to do is remove all those indicators, unless you really think you need all of them <_<

Ty very Much !!

I have to buy a computer which will be very usefull for nt8.
And waiting nt8, nt7 will be run faster than my computer (i use now).

Ty very very Much to make research to answer my question.


I have to wait for nt8 and for all indicators i use...

I make confidence to all programers..
