February 15, 20197 yr 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, 20197 yr 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, 20197 yr 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 17, 20197 yr Author "Fine by me but if X58 is allowed then X79 should be also imo." I'm in for that. ;)

February 20, 20197 yr @unityofsaintsI mean that we shouldn't have hcc xeons on x79, or unlocked 8 cores
