Important Information on Support of Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 3200 series

Support for the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 3200 series requires specific hardware and software requirements to be used on the following Intel® Server Boards.

The following are the required pieces to enable interoperability.

Hardware Requirements:

  • The Intel® Server Board S3000AH board revision should be -206 or higher. You can verify the Product Board Assembly (PBA) number by looking at the white sticker marking on the baseboard. The PBA number is in a format xxxxxx-xxx, where the first 6 alpha-numeric characters represents the board SKU, and the last 3 digit represent the board revision. Note : The PBA number is also printed on the boxboard label which also denotes the supported processor.

BIOS/Firmware Requirements:

  • The Intel® Server Board S3000AH BIOS should be Production BIOS R35 or later.

For the latest order codes for the Intel® Server Board S3000AH, check the Spares and Configuration Guide.

Note: Distributors may have inventory of server board revisions and chassis that do and do not support Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 3200 series. If you are planning to integrate with quad-core processors, please be sure to specify to your distributor that you require a board revision that will support quad-core processors.
