    It does not appear that the 370493-001 serial is a compatible board.

    Compatible boards for 370493-001.

    Also, the 370493 serial appears to be a AMD board/chipset. The 370475 serial is Intel, from what I see.

    "Any" Intel chipset will not work. You need the right chipset make and model, and the board has to be designed for your chassis. Sometimes you can get away with sticking a board with a different SKU in your case, but make absolutely sure it will work.
