Upgrade Processor ML110 G9

[itoss]

Could someone who has a functioning v4 CPU post their motherboard serial/product ID, please?

Mine is :

Product ID 794994-425

and i would like to know i the v4 CPU worls for my server. The Redundant BIOS show 05.05.2016. hasswell was released in 2014, broadwell in 2016. So my Server could work with a v4 CPU ?!

@Suman_1978 How can i readout the maonboard serial / model number ?

dmidecode shows only the Server Model but not serial oder modelnumber from the mainboard.

Hi,

Try different options like, dmidecode --type baseboard

I tried serveral parameter and option with the dmidecode command, but i cant get the modelnumber of the mainboard. The v4 CPU should arrive about 2-3 day so i have to try out if v4 cpu works. Some users write after an BIOS update the v4 CPUs works.

Are there any hardware issue using a 79XXXX mainboard with a v4 CPU or is the "old" v3 mainboard after a bios update working with a v4 CPU ? Technical specs are almost eqal.
