X9SCL-F and Celeron G470 compatibility

Question

Just wanted to ask if somebody has experience with the combination of X9SCL-F and Celeron G470.

I wanted to buy it, unfortunately a seller hasn't tested this combination, so he didn't want to sell it, even though Celeron is listed in the supported cpu list: http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/C202_C204/X9SCL-F.cfm

The server is going to be backup server => goal is low power consumption and low price.

Answer 1

According to the communication with supermicro support. They haven't tested that as well. So they don't recommend it.
