February 12, 20197 yr Hopefully someone could add some light into this. I'm planning a build with the intel i7 9700 9th generation and I swera I read somewhere that you need linux kernel 4.20 for intel 9th generation but I can't find it know. Does anyone know and can confirm? Thanks!

Does anyone know and can confirm? Thanks! Just to use the i9-9700K as a CPU in a server running unRAID should not require any particular kernel version. There seems to be some credible information that to utilize the iGPU in the 9th generation CPU will require the updated i915 drivers that supposedly are in Linux kernel 4.20.

March 10, 20197 yr Yeah, that's the exact reason I went with an 8th gen i3-8100 for my first unRAID build, which has now been upgraded to a i7-8700. Board and BIOS support the 9th gen processors, should I find the need to upgrade.

I thought 8th gen was limited to kernel 4.20 also. Edited July 29, 20196 yr by Trozmagon
July 31, 20196 yr I have a have CPU at the moment and for me Unraid runs like a dream, but I have been having issues with creating VM's which is why I am changing my hardware, as for every time I create a VM, I get as far as assigning the guest Hard drive, and then it just dies.
