Hello,

I swapped yesterday my i7 3930K to Xeon E5 2697 V2 in my home office machine. I was kind of disappointed when I cannot change multi beyond 27 at all (even though all loaded CPU speed by default is 3.0 Ghz), are there any BIOS mods or other ways to unlock multi up to maximum turbo for these xeons?

I tried bclk overclocking, but so far I could only do 103 Mhz stable in CPU tests, but my integrated Wi-Fi card was still crapping out...

Anyone here with experience in handling those beasts? Or apart from some ES they are 'untouchable' ?

Best regards,
Piotr
