Hi  Meelis

Thank you for the response. p

Yes they do need CPU licenses and I think its a PITA! So glad this isnbt a
big industry trend.

 That being said the 2x RP3440s that I have, have the license for both
sockets. I have downgraded and upgraded but it doesnbt seem to matter...:-(

Not found anything that suggests itbs a different license for a different
core though.

Anyone?

part number is for the replacement CPU is for the RP3440 and it is listed as
being supported. However when I boot up the machine it tells me that the CPU
is not supported. Total confusion.

license is for 8900 and does not cover 8800?
