Thanks, I've contacted the seller directly and he replied "For a strange reason, 12G Dell PowerEdge servers cannot boot with this processor."   I think i will pass now, thanks.
Hello, I would like to know if the E5-2696 V2 is supported on the R720? I was about to buy a pair of these cpu's and it was listed that they aren't supported by the 12 gen poweredge servers, I'm running E5-2667 V2 right now and it seems a bit odd they wouldn't support the E5-2696 V2. Thanks
