Only a small OC with BCLK is possible. For all-core turbo unlock you need stepping 2 E5 v3 Xeon.

Hey! Regarding 3dCenter forum, if you mean forum-3dcenter.org, then no. I am not German :) I get maximum 5200 points in Cinebench with my setup. We can go through the unlock process if you start a private conversation. Already helped Gellért that way )

I can walk you through the process from A to Z. Just start a private conversation

I detect empirical evidence here that your E5-2618L v3 died because you disabled this feature.

Haha! Good for you! I look forward to hearing from you how it goes! :) Let me just give you a hint on how to install those coolers:

Here You can use the settings that I use on my D8 WS mobo, I published the link in the previous post. The difference between two motherboards in terms of BIOS is minimal. But you also need an EFI driver. This is C612, not X99 ASUS mobo. Actually, you can :)

Cata40, since Noctua's backplate is mentioned, the guy is probably talking about socket 1151 not 2011-3 where the backplate is initially installed on the motherboard and provides sufficient hardness to prevent the motherboard from being significantly bent under the weight of CPU cooler heatsink...

You will get your .bin file back to CAP if you open it in UBU, then type "0" for exit and choose 1 - Rename to ASUS USB BIOS Flashback Regarding step 4, I described what needs to be done and how in one of my earlier posts:

I use server memory by Kingston that in not officially supported neither by ASUS X99 motherboards nor by ASUS C612-based boards. Not to even mention ASRock boards which have even less complete memory support lists as far as RDIMM memory is concerned. However, it worked fine on my ASUS X99-E...

I don't use any µcode (reason why will be below). No, I sit in front of my computer, but yes, the system is under light load or in idle when that happens. I don't remember it ever happening under load and I've read on some forum that it has to do with the inability of the cores to go into C6...

I WOULD NOT recommend unlocking dual 2696v3 on a Supermicro board. These boards usually have mediocre power delivery to the CPUs and poor cooling of VRMs. Your particular one (X10DRL-i) is no exception - one of the sockets doesn't even have a heatsink on its VRMs. Just bear in mind that one...

I have decided to buy ASUS board and already ordered it from Computeruniverse. The problems that I've heard of, involved older revision's compatibility issues with v4 ES chips (stepping 0). But since I own two v3 final stepping chips and the motherboard will probably be 1.04 which is the newest...

I see no reason why E5-2683 v3 wouldn't work on this motherboard

They are the same stepping (2) actually... But thanks! Don't apologize for your English, it's good enough to understand ;)
