Thanks for sharing! Looks awesome!more images
Its model number right now is just "PAUL". That's it. IHi, I'm really interested in this product. Looks perfect for adding IPMI to some workstations. Does anyone know what the model number is? Not finding anything just searching for "Asrock PAUL".
Thanks for the info. Excited to eventually get my hands on one of these I'd like to post a video on youtube. Hopefully they arrive in NA sometime this year.Its model number right now is just "PAUL". That's it. I
t's only being sold in Australia at the moment (as far as I can tell). I think believe it will probably be several more months before it makes its way to the US. Will probably be around $125-$150 USD (based on its price in Australia).
Twice this year my remote workstation needed to be reset due to Windows 10 locking up, I think under that scenario this would do the job. It's a long drive into the office to push a button. I believe my motherboard does support standby power but that is definitely a good thing to know.I see one potential catch here that sticks out: Standby power is apparently provided by the USB bus, not PCIe. Systems that don't have standby USB power probably won't be able to remotely power on with this thing.

none of the few / many remote management solutions i have had my hands on had the ability to display the picture created on a different dedicated Workstation Graphics card.
And i doubt that will change unless the GPU manufacturers and BMC / remote management Devs get together and create a specification for the BMC to read directly from the workstation GPU.
I don't know of such standards, i have not looked into such standards, i doubt the amount of people interested in it is high enough to warrant the development of such.
Comparable standards are for example the interfaces where the BMC can serve its management functions on other system NICs other then dedicated port.
For example, RMII or NCSI in the of an Supermicro X11SPi with an AST2500.
Probably not a problem. Set the system firmware to use the IPMI card as the primary display adapter. Mild disadvantage: the local console may be unable to access the system firmware, show boot messages, etc. But once the OS takes over, that setting is irrelevant and you can use whatever combination of display adapters the OS supports.or getting into the "bios
Thanks for details and all the pictures!more images
I thought the card could do that via NMI? At least that's what was stated up-thread.I'm missing the reset
