Unfortunately i don't have a LGA2066 motherboard available so i haven't tried them.. I do recall reading a thread somewhere that they are 10 core Skylake-X or something like that..


A couple of us on ServeTheHome tried to work out what they were, to no avail. It wouldn't boot in any of the boards the users tried, so i think they might be some sort of marketing/mech sample. It does have some sort of die inside though, a user smashed one open to see.

Not strange at all - back in the days, before spending all the time on kids and work, I usually bought the lowest (or almost lowest) speed of a given architecture and overclocked Laughing

But i7 920 was $100 cheaper and had 20% higher frequency Very Happy


Benchers don't care what the original frequency is. They care about percentage of overclock. Wink

That, yes - and off course final result .. Cool Or - back in my glory days of overclocking, the "sport" was to buy one of the lowest speeds of a given CPU - and run it at the highest retail speed of same type Very Happy

X299 doesn't work with Xeons IIRC

Xeon W will not work with x299 (at least officially), it needs C422.

These are LGA1366, FYI. The rumours say the rare-bird 995X's apparently have unmarked IHS's too.
