Compatibility with Broadwell-E

周__悦 — Fri, 23 Sep 2016 16:57:43 GMT

As u all know the SR300 require a "Intel 6th generation processor or above".

What about Broadwell-E (especially 6850K) ?

Since Skylake is 6th gen and Broadwell 5th , which generation are the broadwell-E cpu ?

thanks

I have Intel Core i7-5700HQ

I have Intel Core i7-5700HQ (BroadWell ) and it works quite well with SR300.

Hi John D,

Broadwell-E CPU is 5th-generation Core.
Usually you can easily identify your CPU generation just by looking at the first digit of your CPU model:
for example lets take Intel® Core™ i5-6198D 2.3GHz: that will Be 6th generation.
In your case Broadwell-E 6850K is 5th-generation.
In case of Broadwell-E version, all the 68xxK-69xxK are Broadwell-E.
In the oldest generations the E versions are 5960X for HSW-E, 4960X for IVB-E and 3960X for SNB-E.

We only support issues for Intel 6th generation processor or above.
