I only know that X9DR3-LN4F+ BIOS 3.3 supports pcie bifurcation, you can try 3.2 yourself. Just see if bifurcation shows up in BIOS and whether all nvme drives show up in your os. Even though, a BIOS update is still recommended. Booting from nvme requires some modification, all versions of stock...
I am now using the 3.4 bios with nvme boot modded, the bifurcation works well. However, sometimes only 2 devices on my x16 to 4x M.2 adapter is detected, this can be solved easily by performing a power cycle.
It seems they just removed the links to the older product detail page, but you can still get there by simply googling your motherboard model.

My card with 4x12T drive seems not affected using UEFI+GPT. I was running the latest firmware, raid mode and boot disabled.

I believe it is not related to the chipset uplink port. Many X9DRi-F (C602) users also say their bifurcation is not working, like this post on STH, that post on STH, another post on STH, and this post on HardForum. There is also a FAQ on this issue.

The PCIe bifurcation on X9DRi-LN4F+ works fine while X9DR3-F does not work at all. Unlike other boards make the bifurcation hidden in setup, Supermicro X9 boards setup does provide the options and they change the bios variable properly, but it only takes effect on some model.
Update: I emailed...
I also replaced X9DRI-LN4F with X9DRI-F for 4U case, pcie bifurcation works fine with X9DRI-LN4F, but it is not working on X9DRI-F. This post says the board does not support bifurcation at all, and supermicro won't fix it.
Update: Supermicro send me a bios with working pcie bifurcation, details...
I have X9DR3-F, and JEYI iHyper-M2X16 card, the bifurcation never works. This post says the board does not support bifurcation at all.
Update: I emailed Supermicro, they tell me that X9DR3-F 3.3 BIOS actually doesn't support PCIe bifurcation. However, they send me a beta BIOS built on Feb 2020...
Yes I can, but the shipping fee would be higher than aliexpress as I will ship it directly from post office, and payment will be more complicated. Please PM me for details.
These are MCX341A-XCAN network adapter from Quanta 2-node servers plus an OCP connector to PCIe adapter. The design of the OCP to PCIe adapter is available on GitHub:
KCORES/OCP2PCIe
Turnedback/OCP2-Pcie
And these single-port CX341A can be easily modified to a dual-port CX342A by soldering...
It seems impossible because LGA 2011-3 actually got more pins than LGA 2011 while 7-9 gen desktop cores all use LGA 1151 rev2. I think the v1/v2 and v3/v4 E5 cpus are physically incompatible. The only possible thing is to use DDR3 memory with v3 cpus, and there are such products on market like...
B85 chipset is mainly used on 2011-3 boards, some sellers might call it X99. And yes, most of the failure was caused by quality issues. Also, in Chinese forums, these boards are believed to use "recycled" chipset desoldered from old boards, this might be the cause.
Some of these motherboards actually use H61/Q65/B75 chipsets (Yes Chinese craftsmen have made it possible to use these chipsets with lga2011 CPUs). Stay away from these boards as they have some compatibility issues like not supporting ECC LRDIMMs and/or 12-core CPUs and stability issues.
Yes it's a 60(L)x60(W)x10(H)mm fan. I think 40mm one will work without any problem, though the temperature might be slightly higher. And I used 20cm cable ties to attach the fan.
I used some cable ties to attach a ~2000rpm 6010 fan, and also applied new thermal paste onto the chip, the temperature is around 60℃ and its pretty silent. Replacing the thermal paste will significantly low the temperature as most cards come with thermal paste totally dried out. Probably a...
