mobile BGA CPU in Supermicro X11 cobo compatibility

[life2b]

Hi, I post thread since I'm so curious about CPU compatibility.

Recently I got X11SCL-iF mobo, so I wanted to replace my server X10SDV-4C-TLN2F with this motherboard.

Wanted 8 core, but coffee Lake Xeon 8 core will costs a fortune to me.

And I found E-2286M which costs below $ 150, which has been modified by BGA to LGA kit in Aliespress.

It shares same microcode with E-2286G (906ED - R0), and it's neither ES or QS.

Is it possible to use E-2286M in Supermicro motherboard?

the chipset compatibility is there, but the adapter PCB is made for Z370 etc. support.
this may be an issue.

Oh... didn't thought about adapter pcb. Thanks. That's too bad.

but if you take a chipset c232/c236 motherboard it works.
BIOS modd required.

there is a tool called coffeetime(or something like that) for modding the BIOS.
