MAX CPU for R420

Hi there,

Looking for info on what the max. CPU I can use in an R420 server? AM I right in thinking it is the Intel E5-2470v2?

Thanks.

While I'm asking, is the max. RAM 384GB of DDR3 PC4-14900 1,866MHz?

Thanks in advance.

Looking at maxxing out an R420 we have.

    That processor would be the highest performance one that I'm looking at as validated. There is a proc that runs at 2.5GHz, instead of 2.4GHz, but you sacrifice 4 cores for that (E5-2430 v2).

     

    As for memory, yes, per the documentation 384GB is the maximum memory capacity.  1866 is the fastest memory clock speed I'm seeing, too.
