Can I put two intel processors of the same series in one server motherboard?

Question

Iron

I decided to dismantle the server room and found old unused servers. As a result, there are three hp servers and 3 xeon e5405, e5430, x5450 processors. Is it possible to stick the first two processors into one motherboard and what is the chance that it will work?

Answer 1

xeon series 54 has long been thought of what to do with, after masking one leg and biting out the landing grooves, they get into LGA 775 desktop motherboards. This allows you to make an unprecedented, fantastic upgrade to ancient home trash. For what purpose, stones are popularly sold on Amazon and Alibaba for 30 dollars. Google LGA 771 to 775 MOD

Answer 2

There is much more detailed documentation for server motherboards (for example, you can look at the website of the motherboard manufacturer). There it is written in great detail which models of processors are guaranteed to work. And, most likely, similar models will work, even if they are not mentioned in the documentation.
In your case, you can try - one processor will run at its native frequency, and the other at a reduced one. But, generally speaking, server motherboards also diagnose themselves very hard. They may not want to .....
In any case, you are unlikely to break.

Answer 3

Yes, but it depends on the mother. I stick different percentages. xeon e 5 *** series and nothing. One is 10 nuclear, the other is 4 and they work fine. Of course it's better when they are the same.
In any case, it’s worth a try, nothing will happen to them (unless, of course, you don’t damage it when mouthing)
