I am looking for a high-end CPU for a new pc-server hybrid build. I need to be able to run Windows XP Professional x64 on the new computer. I will be running a backup server on the computer, and it will control my tape library. The high-end software requires Windows Server with the exception of XP.
I am loooking at Intel i7-5820K and i7-4790k CPUs, but I cannot find a motherboard for them that has drivers for xp on the manufacturer's support page. Is there a way to work around this? What is the fastest Intel CPU/motherboard I can use? A motherboard with drivers for XP and higher, and Server 2003 and higher is ideal.
I already know I can use an FX-8350 with full XP driver support, but I am wondering what Intel's offerings are. I wanted something a little faster. I already know the pros/cons with staying with xp.
Thanks
