oh okay...thank you very much. just last thing is it worth 130 euros cuz seller won't drop even 1 euro price? And I'll need to flash board with newer BIOS so it would support this CPU. What fastest RAM speed this CPU supports?Only 2133MHz?
130 Euro equals approximately $200 Canadian. For the European market, $200 seems reasonable; I might aim for around $180–$150 CAD (100–120 Euro). The CPU was brand new at that time and cost about $441 USD. I purchased it on sale for $499 Canadian, which is roughly 327 Euro. Rampage V Extreme supports USB BIOS Flashback. You can either use your Xeon to update the BIOS or opt for the USB BIOS Flashback feature (like updating the motherboard without the CPU in the socket). The CPU officially supports DDR4-2133, though XMP is not enabled. XMP allows overclocking memory; with it enabled, this CPU can handle much faster RAM. I was using DDR4-3000 CL14 and experienced no issues. Intel rates the i7-10700K for up to DDR4-2933, but many users successfully use DDR4-3600+ with XMP enabled.
It seems like you're asking about how your CPU malfunctioned. Were you concerned about overheating or power issues?
This information indicates a discrepancy on the website. The product details show no multiplier unlocked, while the link suggests otherwise.
It seems some reports indicate the X99 Deluxe II may be damaging CPUs. Specific BIOS settings and voltage configurations could influence this issue.
