DL120 G5 (470064-762) - CPU compatibility

[gabrielle_1]

Hello,

a customer has a server DL120 G5 (470064-762) running and is requesting faster CPU & more RAM. Is there any CPU compatibility list for that model and which RAM do I need? I can't find any spec for the mainboard.

This may be an old post but I wanted to confirm that an Intel Q9550 works perfectly fine in a DL120 G5 system if you are on the last released BIOS.

I did my upgrade this evening and it was recognised by the system in the BIOS.

No microcode hacks needed.
