flyride Posted July 7, 2022 Share #2 Posted July 7, 2022 There is some conflicting information out on the interwebs on this chip. However, nothing from Intel says it supports FMA3, which is believed to be the instruction set required by the kernel. https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/products/97143/intel-pentium-processor-g4560-3m-cache-3-50-ghz.html Here's an article that says it does support FMA3 https://www.techpowerup.com/cpu-specs/pentium-g4560.c1937 And wikichip says it doesn't https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/pentium_gold/g4560 I would tend to believe Intel and wikichip.

Oh, so FMA instruction set support is required for the particular DS918+ ? I thought this was AMD thing. Does ark.intel mentions FMA if it is supported?

roamen Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share #4 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) Can you post a processor which supports FMA3 from ark.intel ? This is my processor, and intel doesnt mention any FMA3 https://www.intel.in/content/www/in/en/products/sku/134898/intel-core-i59400-processor-9m-cache-up-to-4-10-ghz/specifications.html Eventhogh wikichip mentioned it https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/intel/core_i5/i5-9400 Strange Edited July 7, 2022 by roamen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apriliars3 Posted July 7, 2022 Share #5 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) CPU-Z shows it your cpu support FMA3 Instructions or not. Pentium and Celeron not FMA3 Instrutions Edited July 7, 2022 by apriliars3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apriliars3 Posted July 7, 2022 Share #7 Posted July 7, 2022 Just now, roamen said: Thanks Other thing, Intel i3 2120 haven´t FMA 3 Instructions, and works with DVA1622. I think you need test with your cpu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technically some of the J-series are Celerons, and there are a number of Pentiums that have FMA3. Have to evaluate each chip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This table show me that DS920+ need Hasswell or superior, but it is possible to install on Intel i3 2120 the model DVA1622. I will try to put the real cpu in dsm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You missed this note in the table. DS920+ seems unique but we don't know why. Other models continue to require FMA3. ** Based on history, DS920+ should require Haswell. There is anecdotal evidence gradually emerging that DS920+ will run on x86-64 hardware. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
