P750dm2-g/p775dm3-g upgrade with a Coffee Lake cpu?

As expected. Intel wouldn't allowed 3 revisions processors on same old socket.

 

Hex cores can also draw a lot more power so they may need to re-work the power management for the socket too.

Coffee Lake product roadmap shows six-core CPU using Socket 1151

 

Well that just threw a wrench in my plans. Way to go Intel.

 

Asus Interview: Andrew Wu (ROG Motherboard PM)
http://www.bit-tech.net/features/tech/motherboards/asus-interview-andrew-wu-rog-motherboard-pm/1/

" bit-tech: Can you go into more technical detail about why the new CPUs are not backwards-compatible with Z270 motherboards?

Andrew: Actually, it depends on Intel’s decision.

bit-tech: So it’s not a physical limitation? Intel said it was to do with power delivery.

Andrew: Not really. It [the power delivery] makes a little bit of difference, but not much.

bit-tech: So what are they referring to – the 20 or so unused pins from before?

Andrew: Yes.

bit-tech: So if you wanted and Intel let you, you could make Z270 compatible?

Andrew: Yes, but you also require an upgrade from the ME [Management Engine] and a BIOS update. Intel somehow has locked the compatibility.

bit-tech: The 20 previously unused pins that you mentioned, what are they now used for?

Andrew: Many of them are used for power control. It's possible that these are in preparation for the high-core count processors.

bit-tech: Intel has also said that overclocking has been improved with ‘enhanced package power delivery’. Do you know what that refers to? Is that also the 20 pins or something else?

Andrew: Because this is a refresh platform, Intel has somehow made it even more mature, so it will be even more stable than the previous generation. From what I can see, this refresh doesn’t mean a bad thing for users. Usually, the kind of customers that already have a Z270 board will probably not upgrade for this generation. For the majority of Z370 users, maybe they have been using their PC for three or five years, so these are still good products for them to upgrade to.

bit-tech: So you’re not looking to target Z270 customers, you’re looking at older customers?

Andrew: We’re targeting anyone that wants or needs to buy a new system. It’s logical that many people on Z270 don’t need to upgrade. But there are still some people that would like to try these six-core processors, and they will still upgrade their systems. For users that have older systems, Coffee Lake offers great performance. You’ve got better power efficiency, higher clock speeds, the option of more cores, and faster storage. "

 

Bonjour quelqu'un peut me dire si je peux mettre un niveau mon clevo p775-dm3 en intel cofe lake, i7 8700K? comme celui-ci car c'est le même châssis? https://www.obsidian-pc.com/fr/obsidian-p775dm3-g-clevo/

 

not possible at the moment. may be in future if Intel will release an upgrade from the ME [Management Engine] and a BIOS update

This Thread is about getting cl working on z170 or z270 Mainboards. It states that this Mod is fully functional even with pcie 3.0 16x and 6-Core CPUs (but Not recommended due to higher power limits)

There are some negative aspects about it like using a vulnerable IME for example.

@Prema is this possible for our mainboards too?

 

its stated that so far this only works with the lower tier quadcore CFL cpus since they are basically rebranded kaby lake models...

upgrade bios?
