LGA 771 to 775 Adapter (MOD) – Run faster Xeon CPUs in a Core 2 Quad motherboard
- List of LGA 771 & 775 CPUs + Current Prices
- Where can I get an adapter?
- Why would you want to do this?
- How does the adapter work?
- Minor modification to the LGA 775 socket is also required
- Motherboard Compatibility
- Recommended LGA 771 Xeon processors
- Tested motherboards
- Detailed instructions for completing this MOD
- Troubleshooting Problems
Tested motherboards
Below you'll find a list of motherboards that have been tested with this MOD.
We've also included some motherboards that should be compatible (based on their specifications) but haven't been tested yet. However, we clearly mark those as Not tested yet, so you can tell the difference.
Predicted compatibility
On most of the motherboards, we've tried to predict what Xeons will be compatible based on the motherboard specifications (like chipset, max FSB, and max TDP), supported LGA 775 processors, and the Xeons people have tested. The prediction should be very accurate in most cases, but since we haven't actually tested all of these ourselves, we can't guarantee it.
We recommend that you also verify compatibility yourself using our LGA 771 to 775 motherboard compatibility guide (which was shown earlier in this guide).
Let us know if this mod worked on a motherboard that isn't in our list
Please leave a comment with your:
- Motherboard model number (and revision if it has one)
- Xeon model number (and stepping if you know it)
- (Optional) chipset, max FSB, max TDP, and supported LGA 775 processors
This will help other people that are also using your motherboard.

Just an update.
P5Q3 Wifi Deluxe
Xeon L5430
I had been running an L5430 for a long time. Very Stable was running with DDR3 1333.
Just upgraded it to a E5472 with DDR3 1600 overclocked to 3.33Mhz. Very stable and working fine.
FSB 444 7.5x
Not sure how I get the ram to overclock to 1600 if anyone knows on this MB please post.
Cheers

Hi i just put a xeon e5462 2.8ghz in my msi g41-p26 motherboard and it booted up and is working but the cpu speed in bios and cpu-z in 2.33ghz even under load. Also task manager shows that the speed is around 2.7ghz even though cpu-z shows 2333mhz at the same time.
Dell DG33M03 mobo: failed multiple times until I replaced the sticker. Now running happily with an x5470
Is it possible using an E5345 in this method? We a couple spare from a server strip down, intending to use in a surveillance system we built. 🙂
