After a lot of good deals lets talk about a bad things.
I have this Asus Z10PA-D8 motherboard, one of my frends have the same motherboard from the same seller, and that mobo killed 4 xeons so he send it back.
But my mobo handles the 2678v3 very well and works fine, but i decided to upgrade. I bought a few damaged xeons 2690v3, 2697v3. I have a lot of damaged before and almost all worked well. I want a dual 2697v3 rig, more cores more freq (bios modded to all core turbo hack). And i want to sell the 2690v3 and the two 2678v3 for profit so the upgrade will totaly free

So i put the 2690v3 in it, nothing happened, 00 error code. Ok thats not a problem one not working not a big deal. 50 USD lost
Next is 2697v3 55 usd, big bang and smoke puff. Mobo damaged, one thread on the right side of the mobo damaged. That is a disaster!!! I put back the 2678v3 in it, and its boots!!! Prime stable, but the mobo fried and works?? How??? Ok i put the next 2697v3, nothing, just 00 on the diag, i put back the 2678v3 and worked..
So the summ of this: 3 dead xeons 160 usd lost, and a strange mobo that fried but works flawlessly. How can i upgrade this thing to not kill any high wattage xeons? I think i cant...My PSU is brand new Superflower platinum 750w, so its enough for two of the cpus.
The funny thing is i make gaming machines with chinese no name mobos and damaged cpus, noname psu-s, used rams..., all of them are works overclocked. The brand mobo, brand psu, brand etc killed the xeons and half fried.
I think that the mobo was aged and have weakened vrm for the 130-145w cpus, that is why burned. One of the 2697v3 are smelling like smoke. I will try them in a chinese mobo.
So i keep the dual 2678v3, if i want to upgrade i must buy another dual mobo, that is cost too much. But i will buy chinese, no more brand used mobo.
