Is it possible to have the same X1 configuration but with the i5 4200U CPU ?

No, there is no such reseller model that Lenovo makes. The closest that I could find is configuration 20A7003DUS (i5-4300U, 4GB, 180GB SSD). Normally (in reseller models) as soon as you get to i5, the RAM drops to 4GB. There are some custom built reseller models, but nobody carries them. Last option - custom-configure it at Lenovo's website, but you will end paying way more than this model that has i7/8GB/256GB and you will wait close to a month. I would not recommend it.

You can use either as they both support multiple CPU's (up to 512 on 64 bit). I would install whichever version you feel would most suit your needs.

Not as far as I know. can use Pcie 1, 2 or 3. Might see performance issues if only 1.0

The one I purchased has an i5-4200U CPU @1.60GHz 2.3GHz 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD.

Yes it will work with only one processor. I have tested this my self, and it is compatible with the quadro 4200k.

Unless you pick it out at a retail store such as the Microsoft Store or Best Buy, you cannot be guaranteed the new CPU. However, in reality, there is no perceptible difference between the CPUs except on some arcane benchmarks. Real world use will show no difference. But I respect your desire for the "latest and greatest" and applaud you for asking this intelligent question.

Thus Is an enterprise class server solution not a gaming rig. Xeon processors are not geared towards supporting games. Buy an i5 or i7 based system.

yes but alot of people doing LGA 775 mod using intel xeon LGA 771. google is YOUR friend

My system runs a x16. I guess looking up my possible candidates I didn't realize the obvious difference. I plugged the card in and it still works! However, I would advise looking for x16 still, because it sounds like that is not always the case.

Yes, it is. I personally have this one paired with a Sabertooth x79, the UEFI bios takes care of the overclocking. Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I think all i7-3xxxK and i7-4xxxK processors are unlocked.

Yes! Currently running OS X 10.9.1. Search for "Intel Haswell NUC Core i5 (D54250WYK)" and follow the guides. Works awesome as a home theater PC in my living room!

Need to know the specific part number of your motherboard but more than likely, the answer is no. The release date of the two cpu's are far apart enough that the sockets and/or supporting architectures are different.

Thanks a lot for your response Askal, I have a core i7 2.98 Ghz with 4 GB RAM I will get the unit.

I don't believe so.........the motherboard will support certain Core 2 Duo CPUs but not Quad Core CPUs.

i can not tell the difference between i5 and i7 for normal use, so i would say i5 one is my one.

By the way look at the user manual that is available online so you can verify if is compatible with the processor you want

Its the same processor, it goes from 1.7ghz to 2.7ghz when it needs to, depending on what you are doing.
