Question about R240 new processor

 

Hello all,

I have a PowerEdge R240 server with G4900 processor and 250W Bronze PSU initially installed.

Recently I installed E2278G processor, but when i turned it on, only power and fans are running, makes no booting up.

And when I check iDRAC Web UI, it keeps displaying it as G4900 only.

Will it be because I need 450W Platinum PSU for  E2278G processor? Or I need specific configuration for it?

If you don't mind, please take a look at my iDRAC screenshots below for details.

Thank you for all your valueable helps ahead!

Hello thanks for choosing Dell.
I checked internally and 
The CPU you wish to use is a E2278G 8 core -> you need a 450W.

Hope this helps and wish you a good one.

I was hoping to purchase M4KV7 or 6571F for 450W PSU for R240-> R430 parts are not compatible for R240, I'm afraid. For the correct part purchase please visit https://dell.to/3wbyYLy

Hello,

Thank you very much for your kind help!

I was hoping to purchase M4KV7 or 6571F for 450W PSU for R240,

but so far I couldn't find any items, pages or sellers to purchase.

Will there any other 450W PSU compatible for R240 also? ex) P34M3 for R430

Thank you once again for your great help!
