So i found dell t7820 locally for a really good price, but before buying it i want to know if ES cpu's can work on it, so if someone has same workstation and can give me an answer would appreciate it :). Thanks in advance. Also if it works would appreciate a guide (since it probably will need bios either modified or not) and which ES cpu's u had luck with.

all skylake production and QS are working, but not ES. BIOS can not be modded.
I don't thing you want to use OLD BIOS (if a downgrade is allowed, don't know)
Cascade Lake ES like QQxx are working until Dell removes the microcode like HP has done.
