![]() Update (): I also came across this youtube video Update (): I've since discovered a post on reddit created by 'BlastingKap' two months earlier, who had also examined the Front I/O pinout on an Optiplex 7010: It appears the pins have a 2mm pitch instead of the typical 0.1" (2.54mm) pitch too. The Front I/O socket on the motherboard is smaller than normal. However, the e3-1230 v2 Xeon processor is apparently known to work in the 7010 too according to one Youtube video posted back in 2015. The fastest Dell certified processor for the 7010/9010 is the i7-3770. The Precision T1650 looks very similar and also supports ECC RAM - it is also offered with Xeon e3-1200v2 family of processors, the fastest being the i3-1290v2. The key difference is 9010 has BIOS support RAID. The Optiplex 7010 and 9010 (I have both) appear to use virtually the same motherboard in the mini tower (MT) variant. I thought I would investigate what causes this and other 'Alert!' messages. I have observed if the front I/O cable is detached from the motherboard, there is an 'Alert! Front I/O Cable failure.' error message when booting up the PC. This thread describes the issues with installing an Optiplex 7010/9010 motherboard into a 3rd party ATX case. There is another thread for the Optiplex 7010 power switch and power LED pinout.
