no fabric processors should run fine. skylake ES need bios up to 2.1, bios 3.x lacks skylake es microcode.Hi there! Does somebody know if the Supermicro X11DPi-NT supports ES Xeons? Thanks
No, wasn't aware of the 2683v3 scam. I've posted a few photos of the cpu here. It is indeed recognized as a tray processor. Also, Bios reports Processor ID as 306F1. Is there anything else to check? Thanks for your help so far.by the way, remember the good old fake E5-2683v3 ? labeled with 2683v3 but ES inside, hundreds of them were sold.
where did you get the first part of the number from?No, wasn't aware of the 2683v3 scam. I've posted a few photos of the cpu here. It is indeed recognized as a tray processor. Also, Bios reports Processor ID as 306F1. Is there anything else to check? Thanks for your help so far.
Using this methodwhere did you get the first part of the number from?
if i enter only the 0600 i get "our product could not be located....."
nice ;-)Using this method
I know that many Supermicro motherboards (like X11DPH, X11DPL, X11SPi, X11SPL, etc) support the ES chips with the 2.1 BIOS (I have had several in my hands), but according to what I have seen on eBay in the description of different ES chips, both X11DPi-N and X11DPi-NT motherboards are supposed to work with ES chips with a modded BIOS. So I was wondering whether somebody actually tried ES Xeons on X11DPi-NT motherboard (with or without a modded BIOS).

You might need to take the v2.1 bios and add the specific ES microcode with the UBi tool, which is pretty straight forwardI know that many Supermicro motherboards (like X11DPH, X11DPL, X11SPi, X11SPL, etc) support the ES chips with the 2.1 BIOS (I have had several in my hands), but according to what I have seen on eBay in the description of different ES chips, both X11DPi-N and X11DPi-NT motherboards are supposed to work with ES chips with a modded BIOS.

Ive had trouble modding my X11SPM-TF with a QL1K for v3.x bioses. It won't post even with microcode added. Any idea what to do or if it's possible?if you need BIOS 3.x and dont want to downgrade to 2,x you have to modd the 3.x BIOS.
Any idea where could I find this moded 3.0 bios? I searched the win-raid forum but haven't found anything. Thanks!update !
You need the modded 3.0 BIOS to run SKL ES2 on X11DPi-NT, BIOS 2.x will not work
I have to contact a few people for thatAny idea where could I find this moded 3.0 bios? I searched the win-raid forum but haven't found anything. Thanks!
Thank you very much. Please let me know if you find something. Thanks!I have to contact a few people for that
can you try in your bios ?Yes, it is. Base frequency is at 2.3GHz, CPUZ is showing the same info as reported by @PuriPuriLive
I wasn't able to find such a setting. Tried removing the CPU ID 06F1 patches in the bios via MMTool, but it would not post after flashing. Error code 79, CSM issue.can you try in your bios ?
set number of active cores to 18
there are many versions of MMTool, hard to choose the right one.I wasn't able to find such a setting. Tried removing the CPU ID 06F1 patches in the bios via MMTool, but it would not post after flashing. Error code 79, CSM issue.
Updated all the microcodes, 306F2 was outdated, but it did not change a thing. Might try older microcodes for 306F1. Perhaps you know where I could find these ones?there are many versions of MMTool, hard to choose the right one.
change other microcode i.e. 306F2 and test if it still works. maybe you need different tools.
Unfortunately, the bios does not allow to set any higher than 14. Might try to disable the validation.View attachment 12974
can you get AMIBCP-5-02 tool and make "cores enabled" visible ?
