Have an old system I'm trying to squeeze a little more life out of. It's based on a Supermicro X9SCM-f MB. Currently running an E3 1220v1. Ordered a E3 1275v2 not knowing that the 12x5 chips have built in graphics and SM doesn't recommend them for their boards. With the E3 1275v2 installed I'm seeing 2 problems. 1. Windows Server 2012 R2 goes into a continuous boot loop. 2. BIOS reports the memory in non-ecc mode. I put the old E3 1220v1 back in and both problems disappear. I thought maybe disabling the on board graphics might solve these problem but I read that the enable / disable jumper only disables the vga plug and not the on board graphics (how stupid is that).
Anyways, before I give up I thought I'd check here and see if anyone has gotten this combo of CPU and MB working.
TIA
