This motherboard works but is not fully functional. Some of the pins bent on the socket pretty badly when I accidentally got some thermal paste on them and tried to clean it off. I fixed them partially and got the motherboard to work with my E5 2696 V3 CPU at stock speeds with stock turbo boost but not with Turbo boost unlocked.
Also only some of the ram slots are working. Ideally the motherboard needs the socket replaced or somebody with better experience fixing socket pins. A few of the pins are broken so I’m not sure how fixable it is. However if you only plan to run your cpu at base clocks and use only a few dims of ram, this is a good motherboard for that.
