Hi all,
I have a motherboard ASUS X99-Deluxe (LGA2011-v3 socket) with an Intel i7-5820K CPU.
I intended to replace the current CPU with an Intel Xeon E5-2680 v4. According to the CPU Support list on the relevant ASUS webpage, this should be possible.
However, as I proceeded with the intended replacement, I noticed that the socket on the motherboard is much larger than the contact surface of the Xeon CPU.
The socket for said Xeon should be a FCLGA2011-3. Is that different from a LGA2011-v3? Does that mean that the information on the ASUS support list is wrong?
