Does the Asus SK8V motherboard support Opteron 240EE ?
The 240EE is a low power Opteron CPU that runs at
1.15 volts rather than the 1.5 volts of the standard Opterons. Does anyone know whether the SK8V will detect that the CPU is a 240EE and, accordingly, adjust the CPU voltage to 1.15 volts? -- Bob Day |

AFAIK, there is no specific ID of the CPU necessary to support it's voltage, rather it's the same situation as previous boards, the voltage regulator controller senses which pins pull down logic-high signals. In other words, determination of the minimum voltage supported can probably be made by identifying which controller chip it uses, then consulting that chip's spec sheet on it's manufacturer's website. Otherwise, i know not if there are other issues that might thwart use of the 240EE on the SK8V, but fellow owners of that board might be more help, a good place to find some users might be at http://forums.amdmb.com |
