The Lenovo P500 works with both E5-1660-v3 and E5-1660-v4 models. The v3 can be overclocked while the v4 offers higher base clocks and uses a smaller 14nm process compared to the v3's 22nm, which may lower power usage and heat. Both have eight cores and the same TDP. For gaming or development, the choice depends on whether you prioritize performance gains from the v4's specs or stability/overclocking potential of the v3.

Unless you're just having fun, try not to stress too much about this arrangement
