Dell R630 Max CPU upgrade ? E5-2699A v4?

Hi guys i have found several online docs stating that the dell R630 will accept the E5-2699v4 CPUs af 145watts.. 2.2ghz 22c/44threads..

But i have found out recently that there is a newer E5-2699A v4 cpu running 2.4Ghz 22c/44threads at same 145watts.. i am wondering if it will work, as i have managed to find both models for sale at about the same price.. but one has extra 200mhz processing speed per core. will it work on the dell R630 ?

Hi @0p3nS0urc3,

 

Upon checking from the internal component search, Xeon E5-2699AV4 is listed as a compatible component. So it can work on R630. DPN# 91JXT for your reference.

@DELL-Joey C​ 

Hiya thanks it has been working great.. now i pretend to add the PCI-e extender riser card...  but my back chassi only has the default format to add 2 pci-e cards.. but i have seen on the internet a PCI-e extender riser card to add extra 3 pci-e cards on the back as shown on the picture attached.. now i am looking for the part number of the back chassi that needs to be swapped also

because my current one is this one below 

Can someone help me out with the parts number so i can try to shop it online?

Hello, I believe this is what you are looking for:
Part #:68M95
Part Desc.:CRD,NTWK,13G,RNDC,IN,10G,SFP,4 
This is not a UTP but SFP+.

Respectfully,

@DELL-Young E​ 

Hi

yes indeed i am planning the swap upgrade to SFP+ cage NIC.. as we have a switch 100G/40/56GB with 16 portas 10G SFP+ included, and we plan to plug it in that switch using that Mezzanine card, and on the extra PCI-e slots plug a Mellanox Connect-x4  100G Ethernet fiber QSFP28 card.

PS- do u have the part number for the back-panel ? with the PCI-e riser extender position? to add 3 extra NIC pci-e cards like the pictures i have mentioned?

PortalNET2,

 


The expander card would be part number GY1TD.

 

Let me know if this helps.

@DELL-Chris H​         Hi

nop that code shows a PCI-e riser card..describer on this picture here

i have bought already the dell ynf4c 0ynf4c 0999fx 999fx riser card, but my server chassi has the back-panel diferent as shown on the pictures on previous post i will attach the pictures again.. on the picture below this is my current back-panel chassi

as you can see it has only 2 slots available on the back-panel to insert only 2 extra PCI-e network cards..  i bought the riser on the next picture below

this riser card lets me add an extra pci-e short profile network card, because i want to add an extra 3 network pci-e cards on the top of the back-panel..  so i need the part number for the back-panel chassi like the one on the picture-below

As you can se on the picture this R630 has 3 slots short-profile to add extra 3 pci-e network cards fiber , and my server came only with a back-panel for 2 slots pci-e network cards extra.. 1 Long-profile slot e 1 short-profile slot.

Sorry for misunderstanding. From the images you provided I believe the parts you would need are the right side riser (part number DJG93) seen here

 

 

as well as the center riser (part number JR5D2)

Hi again part no number DJG93 i have bought already.. waiting for it to arrive.. but my R630 back panel is different.. the chassi on the back does not fit that part DJG93 because it only has space for 2 PCI networkcards... please check both pictures on previous post, i have highlighted the back panel chassi metal part i need to replace on my server.. in order to be able to fit and accomodate the part DJG93 that i have already acquired.  

Attached on this post a picture with both back panel of both R630 highlighted in red..  the first is my real server the back panel metal part only has fitting to insert 2 PCI e slots network cards , and the riser i have bought part DJG93  i need to remove change the back-panel metal part in order to be able to fit correctly the part DJG93 as shown on the botom picture server..

Hi,

 

There isn't a specific part number you can change to fit 2 riser chassis into 3 riser chassis. You will need to replace the whole server chassis.
