The W-1200 series of Xeon processors require a motherboard with the W480 chipset, will not work with Z490.

 

You're mixing server/workstation cpu with consumer motherboard... you have to go one way or the other, all server grade hardware or all consumer grade hardware. 

 

For that motherboard you'd need a LGA1200 Core i5/i7/i9

Hi All

 

Ended up getting

ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. WS C246 PRO

Intel® Core™ i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz

G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series Red DDR4

 

All seems to be running OK.  Have  a lot of UNRAID learning for this newbie to do.  Impressed with Spaceinvader's videos - very useful info source for this newbie.  Many thanks to Spaceinvador and all comments above.
