I wanted to replace my old synology Nas with a decent server for my movies and some game servers for both of my sons. I decided to put everything in one Maschine. So I bought a used mobo/CPU/RAM combo of eBay.

I bought a supermicro x9drl-if

2x Intel Xeon e5 2670v1

and 4 x 8gb 2rx8 12800e in a set.

the vendor insured me that everything worked so I bought it.

 

Now the to problem. 

System won’t boot.

No video Signal - can’t see proper post code only Buzzer code.

Sound is in slowmo

No pci card attached. only via onboard vga  connected to Monitor

Onboard video is enabled via pin bridge

 

I Tried to boot with 2 cpus 4 sticks, 2 cpus, 2 sticks, swapped them, and cleared cmos multiple times.

Booted with only 1 cpu and 2 sticks and Switches cpus and ram

Checked if the ram is in the correct slot everytime 

 

I can’t check if mb, cpu, ram is broken because I only have what I bought.

The fans are spinning mobo led is blinken

PDF is the mobo manual

Im not a professionell. 

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

Are you sure it came with PC3-12800E memory?

 

I'm pretty sure the Xeon E5 series doesn't support unbuffered memory.

You need to buy DDR3 RDIMMS instead, which are registered.

 

E memory is ECC UDIMM, which is for entry level servers and workstations.

Usually equipped with a Xeon E(3) or Core i3/Pentium/Celeron.

 

Edit:

 

The manual does mention UDIMM support, but it doesn't list 8GB DIMMs as supported on UDIMM. Might indeed be incompatibility.

Here’s the ram I have. 
the seller claimed that pc worked fine till the end.

Im completely new to the ecc ram stuff.

i thought when I buy everything together I can skip the troubleshooting stuff right now but that didn’t work well i guess
