lga 1159 edit

This socket was used to be called lga 1159, this name must be added into article text. `a5b (talk) 21:13, 5 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

1) Wikipedia:Verifiability 2) Not a single instance of LGA 1159 on Intel's website 3) LGA 1159 was a placeholder in the CPU-Z application whose authors simply didn't know what the next socket would be. In short, this is at best misinformation, at worst a rumor which never materialized. It won't be added to the article. Artem S. Tashkinov (talk) 21:25, 5 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

W480 chipset is not strictly for Xeon W edit

I have a Dell Precision 3640 Tower system with an i9-10900K and CPU-Z showed me a W480 chipset to my surprise. I did some checks and it seems that indeed it is correct - DELL only lists a single chipset for this sytem: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/precision-3640-workstation/precision_3640_tower_setupspecs/chipset?guid=guid-ecdde217-8fab-4d73-b895-40fee1353a8d&lang=en-us

while it can have both Core i and Xeon W cpus installed: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/precision-3640-workstation/precision_3640_tower_setupspecs/processors?guid=guid-8370e7f7-0652-497d-8af4-b1857334cebf&lang=en-us

The difference is then the ECC support when using Xeon W, but my point is it supports the desktop class CPUs as well. Maybe somebody can check what the W480 supports at other vendors (Supermicro, Asrock). 77.240.102.234 (talk) 22:58, 26 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

You're correct, fixed. Artem S. Tashkinov (talk) 07:18, 27 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
