    Trouble with ES Xeon

    I'm guessing this will work with the Asus board I have as well if so I'll just order that, I really like the Asus board aestheticly and a CPU takes us less space than a motherboard. Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/131781100996

    Trouble with ES Xeon

    I guess it comes down to buying a new board or CPU. Cost would determine that CPU would be less. Do the L and R suffixes to xeons matter to the socket? Before I order one do I need to make sure the numbers on the chip are a certain thing? Can I basically pick any v3?

    Trouble with ES Xeon

    So I have a working CPU with an incompatible board. I'm trying to weigh the option of new board that works with this CPU, or a CPU that works with this board. Will just about any v3 ES work with it or just the ones on the Asus list? Also all my components are past the point of return.

    Trouble with ES Xeon

    What markings do I need to look for in order to make sure that it I'll work with the board? Does it need to be a V3? Will a v4 work with a different board?

    Trouble with ES Xeon

    The board was brand new, let's say it's the CPU, which ES Xeon is known to work on that board. Or could it be because I need to up date the chipset drivers and I can't because I can't boot into Windows.

    Trouble with ES Xeon

    Got the RAM in the mail that was recommended, tried it out, removed the battery and reset the BIOS, held the Memok button, booted in the BIOS no problem and upon reset, 19. Q-code 25, 41, and then 19. Still it just taunts me.
