QS is a engineering sample too, but not all ES are QS.I assumed that them advertising it as an ES/QS of a 62xx or 82xx processor would mean max memory speed would be the same as retail.
QQ8Q is ES2 state not QS6240 means they would run at 2933mhz.
Are there any ES (that are not QS) that can run at 2933?QS is a engineering sample too, but not all ES are QS.
QS have a valid brand string, NOT "0000@"
QQ8Q is not a QS, only 2666Mt but with hexachannel the difference to 2933 is small in practical performance.
QPKD(8260M A0 QS) is a ES, and runs memory at 2933Mt.
don't know at this time. only unlocked ones with special motherboards(w-3175x ES i.e.)Are there any ES (that are not QS) that can run at 2933?
Amazing info, I had a feeling this seller was just making that up/didn't have the mobo/memory to try it.From all the ones that passed through my hands, only the QQZ1 was running at 2666MHz max.
EDIT: Btw, RolloZ170 is right about the performance gain, which in my very limited testing was non-existant. Maybe that is due to a higher latency on the 2933MHz memory modules. What does have a measurable performance gain is if the memory is running in a six channel or not.
Unfortunately no, I didn't have that one. I also have to add that I mostly have had high-end Gold and Platinum ES chips, so I really don't know about low-value gold, silver, and bronze ES CPUs. I'd guess that they run at the same speed as their OEM/retail equivalents.Amazing info, I had a feeling this seller was just making that up/didn't have the mobo/memory to try it.
Any chance you tested a QQ8M? Some eBay sellers listing it as a 5218 which wouldn't support 2933 but one as a 6230 which retail would run at 2933.
the HWinfo feature page of the QQ8M( Gold 5218/2666Mt ):Any chance you tested a QQ8M?
its not the ES. it is your modded BIOS. have you corrected the FIT table ? (if you don't know what it is don't ask here is not the place for BIOS mod discussions)Is there any know bug with the ES xeons and intel x722 chipset network?
not a good idea, we have learned that a old bios do not work with latest BMC firmware.I also updated the bmc fw to the latest version.
Im only inserted the missing microcodes with Aptio MMTool and updated the bios.its not the ES. it is your modded BIOS. have you corrected the FIT table ? (if you don't know what it is don't ask here is not the place for BIOS mod discussions)
I only use the bmc (local network address web on mobile phone or another pc) to update/downgrade bios.not a good idea, we have learned that a old bios do not work with latest BMC firmware.
how do you downgraded the BIOS ? IPMI or USB flash drive ?
only to be sure: the 1Gbit ports do NOT support 100/10Mbit, you have to have a 1Gbit Switch/Hub to connect with.
ok you added the 50652 microcode and gets five(5) entrys in your mc list ? that will be the reason for your bounds error, there is no place for 5 mcodes, you have to remove/replace one. i don't think MMTool is the right Tool for modded Aptio 5 UEFI.I have modded the new latest 3.x bios from supermicro site, i inserted the microcode so now the new 3.x bios works on the old ES cpu but the network is still unusable. (but it is allow to overclock the ram to 2933, but i only tested it on 2666)
The bios displays "check bounds error" on boot.
Yes there is 5. I have modded a few motherboards before, mostly chinese x99 board with that tool. (but i always removing codes not adding)ok you added the 50652 microcode and gets five(5) entrys in your mc list ? that will be the reason for your bounds error, there is no place for 5 mcodes, you have to remove/replace one. i don't think MMTool is the right Tool for modded Aptio 5 UEFI.
maybe you can get help here
you should better use old 2.0a BIOS and maybe downgrade the BMC firmware.So it is possible the microcode is overwrited some data on the x722 fw. Ok so i download the new bios, and remove all of the microcodes and i only add the skylake ES 50652.
bios from unknown source ? bad idea.The old bios was here: https://drunkencat.net/misc/SupermicroBIOS.html
Right now it is the newest modded bios and the newest bmc firmware installed.
That website is just an index, and it links directly to supermicro's site.bios from unknown source ? bad idea.
