Hello, Is Intel Xeon X5690 on P6T considered as a server and thus not allowed? I'm asking because those chips were sold for workstations ... And I'm a bit confused. Sorry.

February 15, 2019 at 10:16:47 AM UTC

Xeon is server yes

February 15, 2019 at 11:25:45 AM UTC

@LEEGHOOFD Thank You.

February 15, 2019 at 12:10:22 PM UTC

if you can find more Xeon users we can maybe allow these for 1366

February 15, 2019 at 2:29:21 PM UTC

Yes please! On 1366 there are no core count benefits or similar, only price...

:):) What did you expect from me :):)

Tbh I consider 1366 to be HEDT - are we allowing HEDT in all the divisions now?

Just so you know, 775 was considered HEDT at one time.

1366 is 10+ years old now.

X58 has consumer, and workstation boards available. Only 5520 chipset was considered server / HEDT (SR-2).

February 15, 2019 at 11:19:24 PM UTC

Xeon user here as well...question is, should you allow the whole X-line or just the 5698. The six cores are superior on the platform but clearly Server aimed, the 5698 is the oddball.

February 16, 2019 at 12:27:35 AM UTC

All or nothing.

Fine by me but if X58 is allowed then X79 should be also imo.

"Fine by me but if X58 is allowed then X79 should be also imo." I'm in for that. ;)

Lets go for it.

February 17, 2019 at 6:49:42 PM UTC

Why are people able to sub 6700K's to this? LGA1151 is newer than LGA 1150....

February 17, 2019 at 6:55:42 PM UTC

Just report and will dissapear soon.

February 19, 2019 at 2:29:11 PM UTC

Any update about thé use of Xeon cpu's in desktop bords ?

 

February 20, 2019 at 7:26:27 PM UTC

@unityofsaintsI mean that we shouldn't have hcc xeons on x79, or unlocked 8 cores

February 21, 2019 at 10:20:30 AM UTC

Can everybody live with Xeons up to 6 cores, hard to configure though

February 21, 2019 at 11:12:33 AM UTC

Max 6 core's is fijne for me

February 21, 2019 at 1:35:47 PM UTC

If you allow x79 than it renders x58 useless.

February 21, 2019 at 2:14:45 PM UTC

K 'ill make a poll, this is too difficult to follow up

 

 

February 23, 2019 at 8:06:34 AM UTC

thx for adding xeon cpu`s ;) 

February 23, 2019 at 1:04:07 PM UTC

Thx Alby. :)
