at first look: the top 2 are looking pretty decent for the money, both 8c/16t, 3.4/3.7ghz base and 4.6/4.7 all core boost, coupled with dual channel DDR4 2666mhz ECC, should equal some solid workstation/mini-sever performance. but on closer look, its still based on Coffee Lake Refresh uarch...... why would you bother when ice-lake is this close to launch?
