    Question Is LGA2011-3 Mobo backwards compatible with LGA2011-1 CPU?

    Hi there, I'm looking to upgrade my current server to an E7-8850 v2 and need a new motherboard for it. I looked on CPU World and it lists the socket as LGA2011-1. I've tried around for a motherboard, but I can't find any LGA2011-1, only LGA2011-3. Is it ok to buy a v3 motherboard and use this CPU?
