Thanks! Anyone have an idea where these motherboards are sold separately (not in barebone) - especially interested in the Tyan as it is newer generation. Google does no help. Or should I contact Tyan directly?

1. I see that both Supermicro and Tyan have 2CPU motherboards with 8 PCIe x16 slots (plus a few smaller ones). How is this possible when the E5-2600 v2 and v3, respectively, have 40 lanes per CPU for 80 total? The Supermicro motherboard comes in two pieces and is X9 version for the E2600v2...

Thanks! In that link it says: Could someone that has a system with the new E5-2600 series processors, please confirm that server-grade motherboards, like the Supermico's X10 series, have an option in BIOS to enable TSX (for development purposes), please. I checked the manual for one of them and...

I asked about this in another forum but wanted to check here too to see if anyone knows more. Intel found a bug in the TSX implementation of their E5-2600 v3 line and disabled it in BIOS. Here is a quote from the end of this review of the product line: Do you think intel will keep...

Thanks for the link, Burpo! What I gathered from that review is: 1. All SKUs support Cache Monitoring (CMT) - your link above to page 4 2. As far as Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) - it is enabled only on 5 specific SKUs, optimized for communications - page 3: and more info about that...

I have a hard time finding out which particular processors (SKUs) of the E5-2600 v3 range support the Cache Monitoring (CMT) and Cache Allocation Technology (CAT) features. On the 4th page of the Anandtech's review - the magic inside uncore , section "More improvements" near the bottom, it says...
