Hello everyone,

Recently bought a ga-x79-ud3 rev1.0. Nice board for the price i got it for, currently
has an I7 4820k inside it. Mainly got it for the xeons though, as i need a high core count.
So my question is can this board support v2 xeons? Bios is version F20, one of the latest.

And if not, could it support an E5 2689? Its a v1 xeon, but was made for prebuilts and not really
for consumers but i have seen people use it many times.

Thanks for your time, Cheers.
