You've got the CPUs, do the testing yourself instead of speculating about what they "would" do.

I don't have the CPUs, that's why I'm here, as I said in my first post - I'm trying to choose processors for a few home servers, and current candidates are the 10-core 2680v2 and 12-core 2696v2. I'll probably end up with 6 servers in total, so it's 12 CPUs, and the price difference adds up. One of the ways to get back at least some part of the money spent is to use them for mining while it's profitable, hence the question about the hashrates. The benchmarks on xmrig site show ~ the same hashrates between these 2, and I just don't understand why. Thought someone here might have an idea.
