The CPU looks more to be an Ivy Bridge-EP sample since Haswell-EP won't show till late 2020, still in ES state, the chip would be tight to get manpower on if you're not an Intel employee yourself. Q-Spec on the CPU lists it equally a Q1DF ES chip, other inside information have been blurred out for unknown reasons.

It should be noted that Ivy Nosepiece-E which launches in Q3 2020 feature Quad Channel memory controller and can support 8 GB of DDR3-1066/1333/1600/1866 per DIMM slot. PCI-e 3.0 would also be supported by the inexperienced processors churning out 40 lanes and four lanes for PCI-e 2.0. They improve overall IPC performance over Sandy Bridge-E. Hedera helix Bridge-EP on the other hand would embody mammoth chips for workstation users with 12 Cores and 30 MB L3 cache, if this ES chips turns resolute be a 12 Core Hedera helix Bridge-EP Atomic number 99 than you'd probably glucinium a lucky guy to have one of these chips enabled inner your LGA 2020 PC.
