I have a question. Does Intel Xeon Gold 5115 Processor(DL360 Gen10 Server) supports a HPE 64gb ddr4-2933 CAS-21-21-21 RDIMM Memory? Does anyone tried to install on it? Thanks!

Hi, well I will start with that I am new to server hardware and stuff. I just have some questions about intel xeon memory compatibility. 1. Does a 1st gen xeon scalable processor ( e.g. xeon gold 5115 ) will run with a 2nd gen memory ( e.g. HPE P03053-0A1 64GB 2Rx4 DDR4 2933 RDIMM ) at the processor's max speed? or will not be usable at all? 2. Does a 3rd gen xeon scalable processor run or be compatible with the same ram above that is listed at HPE memory matrix support page as a memory of a 2nd gen scalable processor. for context I got F***ed up by buying this memory HPE P03053-0A1 64GB 2Rx4 DDR4 to install on a server with an Intel Xeon Gold 5115 processor. And my reference for buying this memory? the existing memory which has a sticker "Partsquick 64GB PC4-23400 2933 RDIMM" but when I looked on its specs inside the server's iLO. it registered as LRDIMM without a manufacturer or part no. I trust the sticker label of the existing installed than its specs in iLO and look it up on HPE memory matrix support page. I do know about building desk computers, gaming or for other use. but servers are new to me. as per my 2nd question we are looking to install it on a server with a 3rdgen xeon scalabale processor if its supported. I hope anyone could help me here. you can see the image of what memory fooled me.

The problem: After I used GParted to format my drive, suddenly nothing wants to boot. The BIOS key doesn’t seem to work, only the BIOS POST key (so the keyboard works, and it does respond to the input), but that only gets to listing the specs. I have already tried removing the CMOS battery, unplugging the drives, only leaving a USB drive with SystemRescue on it, but nothing boots. Also, when I just leave it to boot, it just stalls on the ASUS logo forever. Specs: Motherboard: Asus P8B-C/4L REV 2.0 CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1240 v2 3.4GHz RAM: 2x Hynix 8GB DDR3 1600MHz UDIMM ECC PSU: Chieftec Smart 400W Storage: 4x WD RED 2TB 1x Crucial MX500 250GB

Hi guys, I know the title sounds paradoxical in its face. But indeed, I would appreciate recommendations for CPUs that have low idling energy usage (~20-50W max) while having superior or at least comparable multithread performance compared to a 14900K and preferably also higher maximum RAM support. I don't mind the energy consumption when its under load (it can hit 600W for all I care), but what I am looking for is a CPU with low idle power draw. In fact, the 13900k/14900k themselves are good examples of CPUs that might fit this criteria - the power draw of my 13900k could be as low as 20W at idle, but their multicore performance is great (albeit the power draw under load is pretty high - but that's okay). Alas, I require a CPU which is more powerful and/or supports more RAM than the 13900k. Budget is not an issue. Honestly I was thinking of getting the Threadripper 7980x, if not for the fact that I read that its idling power draw is ~150W. Server CPUs are fine too. Alternatively, is there a way to play with the (bios) setting of the Threadripper to lower its idling power usage to <50W while maintaining its peak performance? Thanks so much!

I work in a small school approximately 600 students and a 60 employee Our work varies from documents edit to management work to HR We have a local host HR program and a local question Bank and a exams bank we save and manage our students information and progress on our local server We are using a normal computer with i7 7th generation and a 8 gb of ram as a server for now we want to upgrade our network and our server setup For this type of work which is better a server with a Xeon or core processor Is the Xeon processor worth the extra money ?

Hello community. Good day I am contacting you because I need help, I bought this source EUROTECH FONTE ALIMENTACAO BRONZE FATX750 and it does not work on my HP PC with micro Xeon, when I connect it the red light on the button turns on and it makes 4 beeps. I already removed the static from the board and changed the battery, it still didn't work. What else could it be?

i have a server that used to run a bunch of VMs (2697a v4) with 64gb ecc ram, now that it doesnt need all those cores, i need fewer higher speed cores to host some game servers, i have a 5930k, can i just throw that in the board instead of the 2597a v4 but still keep the ecc ram, will it just run as normal ram without being able to use the ecc features? or do i need to get new ram?

Hi, i recently build an Workstation with two Xeon Gold 6150 CPUs, but despite the temps being moderate the cpu fans go absolutly nuts, i've installed the chipset drivers, but that didnt help... Help would be appreciated since that thing is being heard through out the whole building. i have also looked through the bios, but couldn't find the option for the cpu fans, maybe an bios update would help? System Specs: 1x Intel Server Board S2600STB 2x Intel Xeon Gold 6150 1x Nvidia Quadro P2000 (Main GPU) 1x Nvidia Quadro RTX 6000 5x Some Server case fans NOTE: The RTX 6000 is driven using an External ATX PSU, removing any system components makes no difference. Yes i always talk like that when i am annoyed by something 20231007_111113_1_1.mp4

My student association just discovered a pretty old server just sitting on a shelf but we can't identify the cpu. It's most likely way to old to be used but would be fun to know. It runs DDR2 and the harddrives in the server were only 32GB so suggests how ancient it is. Thanks for any help

Before we start you need to look at yourself if you need to tell me that old processors aren't as fast as newer ones. I have 2 lenovo A70 systems they're old but have 4gb ram each, theyre towers with PCIE support so very modular, run cool and quiet, support windows 10 & 11(microsoft have issues) and have gigabit ethernet. There is enough here for a decent desktop experience but modern games, some productivity software and WEB BROWSERS will choke on this budget pentium cpu as well as windows 10 background tasks. The one thing I wont attempt is using old storage when basic SSDs are so cheap, the system supports sata 2 which is plenty for a responsive system. Theres a Kioxia 240gb ssd dangling in the below photo but it will be getting a 3d printed bracket. E5800 pentium performance in 2023 The system was really unresponsive with 90% or 100% cpu utilisation browsing the web. The geekbench score of 382 single core and 618 multicore nails the performance issue here. The mod Its possible to use old xeon 771 chips in core 2 duo/quad era motherboards often going from single/dual core 65nm chips to full blown 45m quad core chips that can overclock to 4ghz. The mod requires a bios patched with xeon microcodes, a taped sticker on the cpu pins and either the motherboard alignment pins cut out with a 18mm snap off knife or pre modded cpu from china. As I already own an x5460 I found premodded bios files for my system and flashed them via windows. This youtuber modded the bios, I tried to do patch myself but couldnt get the patcher to recognise a current Lenovo .rom file. Install As I was feeling traditional after dissaseembly I dropped my new cpu onto the socket pins. Using a microscope and steel soldering tweezers the one bent pin got mostly bent back. A cmos reset was required without it posted but wouldnt get to windows. Cmos reset by removing the CR2032, unplugging hdmi and mains cable then holding the power button. Cooling Its really obvious that this system needed new thermal paste on the cpu, northbridge, southbridge and gpu but I think we forget how bad modern cooling can be. Even though the system came with only a 65w pentium chip the system still came as standard with a bulky aluminium heatsink and thick modular fan and fully supports my 120w xeon cpu. The experience Using this system is night and day better its so much more responsive and doesnt get become unresponsive from windows update or anti virus scans. Browsing the internet is responsive and video playback works in HD. Booting the computer is much faster with 16.4 seconds to the windows login screen or 20 seconds to desktop. The new geekbench score with a 10.7% imrovement in single core performance thanks to the extra cache on the premium xeon and 90% improvement in multicore performance. The caveat The old geforce 8400 graphics card is lacking while its got some video accleration in the form of 'second generation PureVideo HD' for h264 which DOES improve playback in vlc, youtube uses vp9 and seems to be moving back to that from av1, while I can playback 4k30 content at 84% utilisation its not a zero impact thing like on a 12th gen system with vp9 acceleration. Alternatives The 3.16ghz xeon x5460 is about the best cpu you can expect to pickup at a reasonable price but other options like the intel 2.8ghz q9505, q9500 and q9550 or 2.66ghz q9400 share a similar used price and cache and if you're using a non oem mobo its not unreasonable to overclock those cpus to well beyond the 3.16ghz I achieved. Yes its easy to pickup better samples but its the used market and depends on your area. Lenovo_ThinkCentre A70_L-IG41M2_BIOS_MOD.zip

Hello, I have a family member that has made one of his rooms set up as a game room. Set up with four Xboxes and small TV's for each. His networking, luckily, is in the same room. I've been the one actually dabbling in networking and server stuff. I have an old Dell OptiPlex that has 3 hard drive slots (1 parity drive), 12 core Xeon E5-2695 v2, 128gb ECC DDR3 with a 2.5gb pcie network port. I plan on using TrueNas and LANCache in a docker container. Is LANCache able to support Xbox games/updates? Is there a possibly better application for this niche project?

Besides power consumption are there any benefits to using newer server hardware? Does it only matter for certain applications? Is paying 10 times the cost worth it for the same specs just newer hardware? I'm renting this server: I can build this exact server for around 1000 USD. I am running a few websites, a forum, 80 instances of docker, a couple of bots, 3 Minecraft servers, and a Valhiem instance. on average we're using 20% of the system, or that is what is reported back to us. building a newer hardware server gets closer to 10k

Hello, Ive had this build for quite some time and Im not able to upgrade (working with what I have) Ive gotten into hardware monitoring and trying to make my rig as efficient as it can be. Ive used several hardware monitors , NZXT, HWinfo, Speedfan etc and the temps are weird, my CPUs are running within parameters idle and at load but across all monitor programs my SystIN is over 100 deg celcius. also Ive had an issue controling the fans through the bios, the reads are between 300-800 fan speed at load and this seems way too low as Ive seen workstation fans in the thousands but can seem to get my fans to ramp up when the temps get hot and seemingly no way to control it. asus Z10pe-d16 ws 64 gb ram 2400 dual gtx 1080s dual xeon E5-2640 v4 processor CPU coolers x2 noctua 14s (i believe) case Phantek enthoo pro x2 noctua bottom case fans x2 noctua ceiling case fans x1 giant front panel phantek case fan x1 phantek rear case fan 15 all front and bottom case fans are blowing into the case all top and rear case fans are blowing out of the case but I cant get the fans to throttle up at all. Ill gladly post the HW monitor log when I get a chance but if anyone has thoughts? Ive also noticed a new development of one of my ssds is not noticed by bios on boot occassionally and the audio through my focusrite is becoming garbled and having digital crunchy dropouts sometimes.

Budget (including currency): under a grand, USD - preferably under 200 Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Basically nothing, it will be used in conjunction with a KVM switch so I can access the BIOS from my office (server is in basement, office second floor) Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): preferably one HDMI output, maybe 3 total if the price is right. MUST be a single slot card, no exceptions as it’s going into a literal 2U rack server. The motherboard has a daughter board/riser with 1 pci 1x and 2 16x slots. One 16x has 16x (bitrifucated) 4x pci NVMe card, also a single slot basically just looking for a cheap GPU that won’t be used for any intensive purposes other than the desktop. No games, no mining, no editing or anything. the server has onboard VGA but I snapped off a capacitor on accident so the onboard is broken unless I take apart the entire server down to the motherboard and re-solder the capacitor with that being said, last thing I wanna do is take out 24 DIMMS, 8x sata drives, disconnect 8x SAS drives etc etc. I think for my purposes I’d be fine with 4gb of onboard RAM or less. 512mb would probably be sufficient too but it MUST be a single slot card, perhaps a rx 580 or something? price isn’t a concern but again for my purpose, cheap cheap is a benefit. I have 2 laptops that have windows 2022 datacenter on them which will be wired via Ethernet directly to the server which is why (ideally) I’d like 3 HDMI outputs, the other 2 can just be for RDP’ing to the laptops via a seperate subnet/switch setup with a hdmi/ethernet balun thanks peeps! There is no wrong answer on this one, anything would help!

Hi! I've just got used Dell Vostro 3900 MT for $35 in my local online shop, it came with 4th gen i3, 128GB SSD, 300W PSU, and 8GB of ram. I wonder if this system have several upgrade problem like many prebuilts. I just gonna use this PC for homelab use. Here list of my questions: Xeon CPU upgrade: I interested on buying either E3-1230v3 or E3-1265Lv3 because is cheaper than it's i7 counterparts, does this particular motherboard support xeon microcode? at least there's chances this microcode come stock with all motherboard BIOS from this generation? RAM compatibility: If xeon CPU is working on this system, does it guarantee to be able to run DDR3 ECC unbuffered RAM? PCIe whitelisting: Does this particular system have whitelisting on PCIe devices? I've seen many prebuilt in this generation limit PCIe card to only can be used with particular hardware PSU upgrade: This board seems like using standard ATX PSU and connector, does it guarantee to support standard ATX PSU? (I didn't have spare PSU to test it) Any help will be appreciated, thank you!

Hi ! Can I ask you to help me identify this motherboard? I couldn't find info about it. The only thing I know about it, is that it is a server motherboard (old one). But that's it. Pd: It is hanging on my wall alongside other motherboards, just chilling. Thanks!

Hello everyone, My I5-3330 is starting to be struggling in some games, and I would like to upgrade the CPU in order to get a bit more life out of my ageing PC with the Intel DH77KC motherboard. I am hunting for some kind of upgrade, and today a Xeon E3-1270 v2 popped up locally for around 15 dollars. Unfortunately, from the websites I found, this Xeon is not officially supported, even though others, such as 1275 v2, are. Should I take a risk and try getting the CPU? I have recently had success with putting some Xeons into LGA1156 after BIOS updates, even though they were not officially supported. As far as I know, I also updated the bios a few years back, but since the Intel forums are inaccessible without login now, I cannot confirm this (I am not sure whether I updated the drivers only or also did the BIOS update), so I will wait until you guys help out before wasting a bit more time. But if you have a good source for the Intel bioses, I would also highly appreciate the suggestion. Is there a good chance for this to work, or are Intel boards problematic in this regard? I think the price is not that bad even to try it and resell it in the worst case, but I bet there is someone more knowledgeable here who knows the answer directly. Any help, suggestions, or past experience would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance, and have a nice day!

I just sat down to clean off all the thermal grease from CPUs I've been collecting from scraping old hardware. It's kind of wild seeing it all laid out like this. Some interesting ones here. Mostly xeons. Uploading for entertainment value. I'll provide a detailed list of what they all are once they're clean enough to tell. Most of these were pulled from multi CPU servers. If you're interested I'll show the buckets of RAM as well. What kind of interesting collections do you have?

The Lenovo P500 supports both the E5-1660-v3 and the E5-1660-v4, the E5-1660-v3 is overclockable however the E5-1660-v4 has slightly higher base clocks and runs on a much smaller lithography (14 nm compared to the E5-1660-v3's 22 nm) which I heard can help reduce power draw and heat generated (which I figured may decrease throttling), both are 8 cores and have the same TDP, so theoretically, which CPU would be most ideal for a Gaming/Developing system?

So I recently received an hp z800 but it's missing one of cpu fans(mount is missing as well). I was wondering if it was possible to use a 4 pin cpu fan on 5 pin cpu slot on the motherboard. What fan could I get to replace it? Thanks in advance!
