Hello,

What are type 5 and 6 series systems in UniBeast for legacy support ?

Can someone tell me what type are the following system?

What is an Intel core 2 duo ?
What is an Intel i5-3570 ?
What is an Intel Xeon quad core W3565 ?

In UniBeast "Legacy" refers to 6-series motherboards (see below) and earlier that use the Award BIOS and earlier for USB support.

Type 5-series motherboards/chipsets are used with first generation i3/i5/i7 Intel Core processors; e.g., P55 motherboard and i5-760 processor.

Type 6-series motherboards/chipsets are used with 2nd generation i3/i5/i7 Intel Core processors; e.g., Z68 motherboards and i7-2600K processors.

Intel Core 2 Duo processors are the generation before the 1st generation Core i3/i5/7 processors; e.g., pre 6/7-series.

Intel i5-3570 is for 7-series motherboards; e.g., Z77 motherboards.

The Intel Xeon Quad Core W3565 processor is a special processor (used typically for servers) in the time frame of the first generation i3/i5/i7 Intel Core processors. It uses a unique 1366 socket type motherboard.

Do I choose legacy for the gigabyte z270x UD5 motherboard?

No, UEFI
UEFI Boot Mode is recommended for 7/8/9/100/200 Series CustoMac desktops and all UEFI capable systems.
Gigabyte Z270X-UD5 is 200 Series
