So, I bought 2 CPUs from china. One was a month ago - E5-2618Lv2, the other one was half a year ago - E3-1220Lv3.
Strangely both of them have issue if I populate memory according to the manual.
Tested MBs:
X10SSL-F + E3-1220Lv3. If I populate DIMM A1 or DIMM A1 + DIMM B1, I get B7 (memory issue) code during bios startup. If I populate DIMM A2 (+ DIMM B2), it works fine. If I populate all modules, there is still B7 code. It however works with E3-1230v3.
X9SRW-F + E5-2618Lv2. It only works with DIMM B1 slot populated. Any other configuration doesn't work at all. As soon as I replace the cpu with any other non-china, it works.
Do you have similar experience?
