ADVenturePO Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 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. Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted February 15, 2019 Crew Posted February 15, 2019 if you can find more Xeon users we can maybe allow these for 1366 6 Quote
ground Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Yes please! On 1366 there are no core count benefits or similar, only price... 3 Quote

unityofsaints Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 Tbh I consider 1366 to be HEDT - are we allowing HEDT in all the divisions now? Quote

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).

12AX7 Posted February 15, 2019 Posted February 15, 2019 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. Quote

WhiteWulfe Posted February 17, 2019 Posted February 17, 2019 Why are people able to sub 6700K's to this? LGA1151 is newer than LGA 1150.... Quote
skulstation Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Any update about thé use of Xeon cpu's in desktop bords ? Quote
yosarianilives Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 @unityofsaintsI mean that we shouldn't have hcc xeons on x79, or unlocked 8 cores Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted February 21, 2019 Crew Posted February 21, 2019 Can everybody live with Xeons up to 6 cores, hard to configure though 2 Quote
suzuki Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 If you allow x79 than it renders x58 useless. Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted February 21, 2019 Crew Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) K 'ill make a poll, this is too difficult to follow up Edited February 21, 2019 by Leeghoofd Quote
