Compatibility Intel Xeon E3-126xL v4 with Celsius W530

Postby pbt_france » Tue Nov 17, 2020 16:19

Hello, I want to upgrade my W530 with an Intel Xeon E3-1265L v4 or Intel Xeon E3-1285L v4, is it possible ?
This processor is socket 1150 compliant, but I can't find if I can do that or not.

I can't find any release notes for the BIOS V4654R1470. Where can I find it ?

Many thanks

Hello,

is it possible to have UEFI BIOS support for the Xeon E3 1285L V4 (SR2B1) for the Motherboard C226 D3227-A1x ?

Hello and thank you for your contact :)

Powerful Celsius W530/W530 Power mainboard D3227 was designed with Intel's (R) Haswell (C) CPUs in mind. Haswell CPUs are used in conjunction with the Intel 8 Series chipsets, Intel 9 Series chipsets, and Intel C220 series chipsets.

The CPU in question: E3-1285LV4 has a Broadwell codename. Broadwell microarchitecture uses LGA 1150 (also known as Socket H3) microprocessor socket.

Intel Xeon processors for socket LGA 1150 use the Intel C222, C224, and C226 chipsets and not the build in C220 chipsets.

Therefore such replacement is not recommended and most likely will not work.

Best regards,
Fujitsu Support Form

hello, I downloaded the file FTS_MainboardD3220D3221D3222D3227Shortdes_20130508_1092761.PDF from your support, and checked my mainboard. All my OS reports (windows10 + Hardware Info, and Linux Mint) that I have the Intel C226 chipset, not the C220.
I searched why the Xeon 1285L V4 doesn't work : in the UEFI BIOS, there is no MicroCode for Broadwell (I see only mCode for Haswell). Is it a issue from Fujitsu UEFI BIOS (other brand doesn't have this issue) ?
Then why I can't have a Xeon 1285L V4 working with the Fujitsu D3227 ?

I want use the Intel Iris Pro P6300.

I attached a hardware info capture with the actual processor (xeon e3-1230 V3).
