Compatibility and service
- Require a board with explicit W-2200 generation support; identical LGA2066 sockets do not assure firmware compatibility.
- Populate quad-channel DDR4-2933 ECC memory according to the motherboard QVL and DIMM type/capacity limits.
- Observe the 105 W CPU cooling and board power-delivery requirements.
- No integrated graphics; use a discrete GPU if display output is needed.
