I was wondering if anyone know if I can run a Xeon Nocona and a Xeon Irwindale on the same MB?
or if anyone has tried this?
The difference between the 2 as far as I can tell is that the
a) Irwindale has 2MB L2 Cache vs Nocona 1MB
b) Irwindale has a TDP of 110 vs 103 for Nocona.
I currently have a Single Nocona CPU installed. I would to install a 2nd Irwindale CPU into the system.
Thank you in advance for any advice / input / suggestions.

I tried to do this once on an IBM xSeries 336 serverboard and it would not power up.

I don't think so. Normally you can't mix CPUs from two different families.
