May 23, 2015 6 0 4,510 Will a Xeon E3 1230v5 fit in a standard h110 mobo? I know that skylake E3 1000series Xeons require the c232 or c236 chipset but Linus here mentions that unofficially all 1000 series skylake xeons work in any lga 1151 mobo? (Evidence at 5:40) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=toZ_t88bPBU The board I'm considering purchasing is an Asus H-110M-k. Budget is tight and I'm looking to build a £600 editing pc, so if this xeon does fit unofficially, it will save a lot of money. Also ECC ram will not be a factor. Thank you for any potential assistance. Solution The problem with 'unofficial' support is when support drops. Intel has made a habit both through bios updates and win 10 updates which include micro code of patching up any 'unofficial' holes. Depending what prices are like in your area and from the vendors you're using, you may want to see what the cost of a 6700 non k + h110 mobo is relative to a 1230v5 + c232 mobo. For the price I'm seeing on pcpartpicker, the xeon runs 274 pounds, the i7 6700 non k runs 280 pounds. I doubt you'll get a c232 board for 6 pounds more than an h110. On top of that the i7 6700 is up to 200ghz faster max turbo and isn't any slower at base stock. The only real reason to go xeon is if it's significantly cheaper or for ecc ram which you're not using anyway... Sort by date Sort by votes synphul

The only real reason to go xeon is if it's significantly cheaper or for ecc ram which you're not using anyway. Otherwise they're basically the same, same cache etc. When it came to 4th gen you could get the 1231v3 for less than it's equivalent i7 4770 and successfully pair it with any lga1150 board. It's not that way this time around which is why the big xeon binge isn't there. Intel locked them down to the c chipsets. Even linus had to go back and make a statement about other xeons not working in certain boards now and that's what happens when official micro code fixes catch those loopholes. Then you're stuck with a system that either doesn't work or is gimped and without saving any real money given the pricing of the 1230v5 vs 6700. Upvote 0 Downvote Solution Rittu

Thank you very much. My situation was clouded in confusion, but thanks to you my understanding is distinctively clearer. I will certainly check if a 6700 is within range but as of right now I'm seeing a £10 delta between the "k" and non-k variant, suggesting I may be looking something like a 6600k or equivalent. Overall, thank you very much again for explaining the situation to me. Ps: its nice to see a fellow linus fan, I'm getting an ltt shirt tommorow!
