3420 based server board and i5 processor

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a server board for an i5 760 processor. I found a board with 1156 socket, based on 3420 chipset (the S3420GPV server board), but the i5 is _not_ listed in the list of supported/tested processors. Is it supported anyway? How can I check it?

thanks for your answers

Anna

The answer is no. Reason is i5-700 series process doesn't support ECC memory, while S3420GP board doesn't support non-ECC memory.
