Hi, I've checked the cpu supported table on the technical guide and the server has compatibility with:

E5-2697v2 2.7Ghz30M8.0GT/s12Yes130W

E5-2695v2 2.4Ghz30M8.0GT/s12Yes115W

But the eg 2696 v2 doesnt appear..

As it can run a 2697 wich has more tdp than the e5 2696, i think it should be able to run it.

Can anyone help me with this?
