Compatibility and service
- Use only a motherboard whose CPU support list and BIOS release explicitly qualify Xeon W-2235/W-2200.
- Use quad-channel DDR4-2933 ECC memory qualified by the board; supported memory type and maximum capacity are board-dependent.
- Cooling and motherboard power delivery must accommodate the 130 W TDP under sustained workstation loads.
- No integrated graphics; discrete GPU/display hardware is necessary.
