It's now on the way back. :'(
I decided even though this chip is such a steal, for the money I'd rather go for newer gen tech since I'm basically halfway there price wise (and all other parts from my build can be reused).
It did work.. well sort of. Got the chip today and immediately tried it out on the EX58-UD4P with F11 BIOS.
.. But not before looking over it very carefully. The following is only visible at a certain angle under light.
On first power up, it was a tad quirky where I saw it was detected...
I don't see anyone in the thread has mentioned this proc working on the Gigabyte EX58-UD4P, but I'm hoping since Gigabyte lists other supported Xeon L5xxx processors, it'll work.
Okay, just wanted to be sure. Don't have a multimeter on hand but I did want to rule out the PSU as a possible cause of the following issues I've been experiencing:
- high pitched whine from near the hard drives (possibly motherboard)
- front intake fan making *loud* unusual noises -...
Or a little on the low side (all stock)?
