Sandy Bridge EP Xeon?

I uploaded my own CPUz validation, I changed the last digit wondering what others are validating themselves, and I found this. Now, since I'm no expert, but I was wondering if this is at all special, since it's on a 2011 socket.

This may not say a whole lot, but it may put some perspective on the CPU. Besides, the site has plenty of info to share, both from others' experience and from Intel's own 'mouth'... if you like to read up on things...

Nice. That is an Engineering sample of one of the soon to be released new 8-core Intel Xeons based on the SB-E architecture. I don't think that gives any major new info, but it is cool to see in the wild (I'm considering getting a pair of them when released).
