E7 Xeon is the old naming scheme. Xeons used to roughly follow E3 / E5 / E7 (just like i3 / i5 / i7 in the consumer brands).

The latest Xeons naming scheme for Skylake or newer is Xeon Platinum / Xeon Gold / Xeon Silver.

Thanks. I probably knew that at some point, but the x299 chipset was so crazy it just pushed that knowledge right out of my head.
