What type of processor will best suit this board?

idata — Tue, 07 Dec 2010 08:16:38 GMT

I just purchased an Inel SE7520RJ2ATAD1 with Intel 7520 chipset server board without the processors, power supply ..ect. It recommends Xeon processors with 800 Mhz front bus speed, ecc DDR 266/333 memory support, hyperthreading, 1 to 2 Gb cache ram, 2.8 Mhz to 3.8 Mhz processor clock speed. I did some research but am a bit confused....will any Irwindale 800mhz bus speed xeon work? Thanks in advance!

Do you have any other numbers on the board that may better identify the board , like db38bt-aa 205.

I haven't received the board yet(SE7520JR2ATAD1) but it is for a Intel SR1400 server that I am building for home computing. All the specs I have researched say it must be a Xeon 90nm, 800Mhz front bus speed with 1 to 2 M l1 cache. Can I use ANY Irwindale Xeon processor since that is what the specs keep bringing me too?
