Hi @drjam. Hardware compatibility of Qubes is hard to anticipate. What you can do is make sure it has the hardware requirements

And then check on the hardware compatibility list (HCL) if a device with similar hardware has successfully run Qubes:

There is much more that goes into answering that question: what chipset,
what network controller(s) etc. What I can offer you is a simple query
over the existing HCL reports:

These Xeon chips are mentioned in positive HCL reports for R4.0:

[1] E3-1535M v6 @ 3.10GHz
[2] L5638 @ 2.00GHz
[3] W-2155 @ 3.30GHz
[4] Silver 4114 @ 2.20GHz
[5] E5-2680 0 @ 2.70GHz
[6] E5-2690 0 @ 2.90GHz
[7] E-2176M @ 2.70GHz
[8] W-2123 @ 3.60GHz

… and for R4.1:

[9] E3-1505M v6 @ 3.00GHz
