This processor seems to be damaged; I would suggest installing the latest BIOS version for your motherboard and if possible testing the processor on another known working and compatible motherboard.

You can also run the Intel® Processor Identification Utility to determine if the processor is being properly recognized.

You can download the Intel® Processor Identification Utility at:

If the same issue continues when testing the processor on 2nd motherboard, I would suggest replacing the processor for a new one.
