Lynnfield is low grade i have proven it before even with BEpingboost.c and the kernel at 100 hz i couldnt get a stable 500 fps and with Turbo Boost
im sure its struggling to keep up Xeons arent meant to boost or overclock in anyway trust me i have tried to get low end servers to run css ob at high fps and 32 slots and another thing is this a dedicated server if so you gotta think about power the power supply could be a cheapie meaning the cpu is under powered there are many things that could cause this just my thoughts
I'm sorry, but that makes no sense at all. How is the Lynnfield Architecture considered to be low grade? It's based off the i7's Nahalem architecture. The x3460 is essentially a rebinned Core i7 860. And if they were not meant to be boosted, then why is turbo mode enabled on these CPU's by default.
And the CPU not "getting enough power" is not the issue. That's not the way it works. There is no reason to believe that the power supply is a "cheapie". If it were the case, then the chances of having it supply the server with "dirty power" would be high, and every component could be fried by now. If the CPU was not getting enough power, then the server would constantly crash -- we would definitely know there was a hardware issue going on - and, that is not the case here.
