System board configuration
Processor
HP ProLiant DL165 G7 Server supports AMD 8-core/12-core G34-Magny-Cours processors. If a
single processor is installed, then use socket 1. When two processors are used, the server supports
boot functions through the processor installed in socket 1. However, if processor 1 fails, the system
cannot boot up, and if processor 2 fails, the system will be automatically booted from processor 1
and provide a processor failure message.
The processor socket supports 2P AMD G34-Magny-Cours processor with integrated memory
controller.
CAUTION: It is recommended to use processors of the same speeds or cache sizes to prevent
possible server malfunction.
