    It's the i350.

    > This is a dual-socket board, you said?  I'd be interested to know if you see any odd latencies - I've seen {Sandy,Ivy} Bridge-E boards occasionally exhibit odd latencies with 10GigE, but it was very difficult to characterize and reproduce.

    Fortunately that are still using X540 on these boards.

    How have these latencies shown up?  I have a number of X9 boards with
    X540 10GE on board and I haven't notices anything untoward.
