Hey, I already posted the actual problem and the solution - a consumer case and standard number of ATX case standoffs, one of which was shorting the slot from the back.

I have identified the problem, which in hindsight is much simpler and dumber. I was previously using a consumer motherboard in the same case and forgot about one of the standoffs, which was exactly below the problematic slot and was shorting the memory pins. Luckily there seems to be no...

Could be faulty CPU/board, but I am trying to avoid shipping it back to...

I checked that again and it's true, they aren't featured in that video. I have one more question - I've heard that some server motherboards reserve some RAM for their own use - is this also the case with this one? I installed 8x16GB DIMMs, and Windows as well as CPU-Z recognize only 112GB...

Yes, these holes are for toolless m.2 drive latches, my seller sold me a board with one from Tyan (with blue button) and a different one looking closer to what's on RolloZ170's picture There is a video from Level1techs on this MB where these latches are shown

thanks!
