Error
editWhen talking about X79 - the table mentions USB 3 when in fact x79 chipset comes with USB 2. prooflink http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/performance-chipsets/x79-express-chipset.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Romangs (talk • contribs) 19:21, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
Note: many High-end motherboard manufacturers provide USB 3.0 on their motherboards. It is not clear if it suppored directly by the X79 chipset or a supporting chipset (similar to Asus' and MSI's SATA cache ports being supported "off-chip") — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2803:1500:1400:508:8919:E9F2:EB30:7A8A (talk) 02:18, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Q4 2011?
editIs that fourth quarter FY 2011 or CY 2011? 24.214.238.86 (talk) 23:30, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
Formatting
editI am not good at formatting but that table at the bottom could use a redesign.
Wording
edit"The Sandy Bridge-E is a huge chip and its highest end edition will sport eight cores with 15 MB of shared L3 cache on a ring bus" "sport" and "huge chip" seem to be too colloquial for Wikipedia. I can't tell if the original author simply copied and pasted this from a blog/tech news site article, or if they wrote this themselves. I would change it to "feature" and "large chip." Or simply remove the sentence in its entirety.68.6.76.31 (talk) 07:43, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
add-in chipsets
editDoes anyone have any evidence that the QPI link will be used for add-in chipsets or is that an old rumour that should be removed? Plugwash (talk) 16:50, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
Core i7 Extreme 3980X and source
editI can't find any decent evidence to suggest that this is actually a processor. The in-line source says that this CPU is a 6 ("hexa") core model that was supposed to launch at the end of last year. Since this didn't happen as far as I can tell and with the way that CPU manufacturers have to work I can only assume this was faked somewhere along its way. What I've done is just change the article so that it supposes the Core i7 Extreme 3980X is a 6 core chip. 90.194.244.38 (talk) 16:10, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
what about C600 Chipset?
editIt seems that the C600 server chipset has been omitted from this discussion. I would like to see a similar breakdown for C60X variants as was done for the X79. There are a lot of server mobo's out there with C602, C604, etc. I came here looking for feature comparison, and as far as I can tell, there in not much mention of C600 series chips anywhere in Wikipedia. Anyone considering a DP/QP Xeon system based on Sandy or Ivy will need to deal with a C600 chipset. tnx216.234.101.78 (talk) 17:09, 22 February 2013 (UTC)
Successor socket
editAdded LGA 1151 as the successor socket
I think that LGA 1151 is technical the successor socket since it corresponds to the 6000/Skylake series processors and LGA 2011 corresponds to the Haswell and Broadwell(2011-v3) series. Does anyone know for sure? Is LGA 2011 part of a separate family tree? Yagoth (talk) 02:40, 22 January 2016 (UTC)Yagoth
- As far as I know, LGA 1151 was never named as the successor of LGA 2011. Even though what you are saying is logical, I don't think it should be mentioned unless reliable sources can be found, as it's based on your original research. -- Chamith (talk) 04:42, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
- And yes, LGA 2011 belongs to Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell while LGA 1151 belongs to Skylake family. -- Chamith (talk) 04:47, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
- Nope, LGA 1151 isn't the successor of LGA 2011, these two CPU sockets belong to different market segments. LGA 2011 belongs to Intel's enthusiast segment, and LGA 1151 doesn't. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 05:04, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
- I'm a bit curious. Then what actually is its successor? I couldn't find any credible information through Google. -- Chamith (talk) 05:46, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
- Currently none. Things don't move that fast in the enthusiast and server segments. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 06:16, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

- On the subject.. may I ask why LGA2011-3 is not branched off as another article entirely? Just curious.. thanks :) Jchap1590 (talk) 05:50, 16 February 2016 (UTC)
- The LGA 2011-3 socket simply isn't different enough to warrant a separate article, and IMHO it's actually much more readable to have everything covered in the same article. — Dsimic (talk | contribs) 13:48, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

- No, the LGA 115x series is incompatible in several ways. The LGA 2011 began as a single 2,011 pin socket but has evolved into a multiple version family, all with 2,011 pins but physically and electrically incompatible with prior versions. The latest version "FCLGA2011-3" marketed as "LGA 2011-3", or "LGA 2011-v3" or similar. The LGA 2011#Physical design and socket generations section, second paragraph begins an inadequate differences description. I suggest the differences between LGA 2011 generations are comparable to the differences in the LGA 115x series. I suggest each LGA 2011 version warrants a separate article. The current single article may trap the hurried or unwitting into believing LGA 2011 is a single socket when it's actually a line of mutually incompatible versions just as the LGA 115x series. – Conrad T.

Sockets variations in relation to the CPUs they support
editSocket LGA2011 types:
Socket 2011 consists of three distinctly different versions and their the designated processors are not cross compatible across socket types.
2011-0 (Socket R) - Supports CPU configuration of 1 or 2 Xeon "E5 v1 & v2" CPUs - uses DDR3 RAM ECC
2011-1 (Socket R2) - Supports CPU configuration of 1, 2, 4 or 8 Xeon "E7 v2 & v3" CPUs - uses DDR3 RAM ECC (for V2) & DDR4 RAM ECC (for V3)
2011-3 (Socket R3) - Supports CPU configuration of 1, 2, 4 or 8 Xeon "V3" CPUs - uses DDR4 RAM ECC
(Please note, I am not as familiar with the i3/i5/i7 or i9 compatibilities.. hence their omissions) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2803:1500:1400:508:8919:E9F2:EB30:7A8A (talk) 02:05, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
The mythical socket R2.
editThe article says socket R2 AKA 2011-1 is used for Xeon E7 CPUs citing www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/core-i7-lga2011-3-datasheet-vol-1.pdf
Aforementioned PDF does not say anything about socket R2, though. Since all Intel CPU data I've seen does use 2011-1 and 2011 interchangeably, and I've yet not found any mention on socket R2, I guess it is just urban legend, like info on 2011 and 2011-1 incompatibility (yep, there can be BIOS incompatibility).
Since there is not a single citation of Intel document saying otherwise, I can conclude that it was an error made by some Wiki page author. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.28.168.23 (talk) 00:11, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
This was just trolling attempt to force adding working links to Intel docs. E7 could not physically fit in 2011 socket. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.28.168.23 (talk) 00:21, 18 September 2019 (UTC)
(Chipset Table): Socket Lga2011-v3 Haswell-E (X99 Chipset) - Possible Error in Table?
editIn the chart under pci-e 3.0 it says 40 lanes but i have a 5920K that (perhaps strangely) only supports 28 pci-express lanes. Thus it only supports configurations with at most a single x16 lane (1x16,1x8,1x0,1x4, or something)...if it wasn't already obvious, I'm not really sure what I'm talking about and definitely not confident enough to edit the article proper, so I thought I'd just mention it here on the talk page and hope someone more knowledgeable comes along and notices. There's also a considerably non-zero chance that I'm wrong about this. 100.16.154.244 (talk) 02:36, 1 July 2020 (UTC)
