I found that the fan connector on the device is an XH2.54 3-pin connector. I read some time ago that a capacitor needs to be soldered to an RPM wire for Noctua to work properly. Could you please tell me if you used an adapter for the Noctua NF-A4x20 FLX, or if you simply connected the pins...

Thank you for the advice. The board came with the latest BIOS, which is visible in BMC. I also reset the BIOS using a jumper and a battery. Neither method helped. I also tried another RAM stick from my gaming PC, but it had the same result. The seller is very supportive. He said the board was...

The price tag was €360, shipping included. I used the CPU and RAM from the QVL, and they worked very well on an Asrock board. In general, I find that these new MC13 boards are very limited in terms of PCIe, M.2, and SATA slots. This makes them difficult to use for a home server. In this case, I...

Hi guys, I've been using the MC12 for a couple of years. In December 2025, I managed to buy a couple of DDR5 32GB ECC UDIMM RAM sticks, and since they're just sitting around, I decided to try building an AM5 platform with the follow-up model, the MC13. I found a refubrished board with a...

Yes, it's €119 on their eBay page and €129 on the seller's website, but delivery is free in Germany. I bought mine from rb-mtec for 98 EUR + 23 EUR DHL delivery, but seems it was the last item. The battery came with 60% charge.

I tried to buy this UPS from this seller with shipping within Germany to a collecting point of Austrian post "Alles Post Deutschland" for forwarding to Austria. I attempted to purchase it on eBay and on their website. The seller canceled both transactions, stating that they cannot ship products...

Thanks for the reply. I have decided to keep the build with GIGABYTE MC12-LE0 and sold the Supermicro board already. This AM4 platform gives me much lower idle power consumption, although not all components support ASPM.

Hi FriedPheesh! I have exactly the same board from CWWK, which should be an OEM manufacturer of these boards. First, the SATA ports on the board come from ASM1166 and are not shown in the BIOS. I have inserted 4x WD 14Tb HDDs and they have been shown in the system. These settings in BIOS...

The global website does not contain F17 anymore. I downloaded the F17 BIOS from German site and installed yesterday over BMC. It shows now as F16 and not F17. Also F16 over VGA output. The uploader from Gigabyte probably messed up everything.

I have Unraid and I think this command is not available. I can run powertop

I have got a fanless Seasonic SSR-600TL, which is quite good for power efficiency.

I have got 27W in idle with 5750ge, 2x32Gb ECC UDIMM, 10Gbe SFP+ ACQ107 NIC, 2x1Tb nvme and 4x14Tb HDD. Nvme never goes idle and Powertop shows only C3 state. By full speed goes up to 55W.

Hi guys. I have a HP 405 G8 micro with a Ryzen 7 pro 5750ge ES and I was thinking about building a small server with ECC RAM as both the CPU and the AMD PRO 565 chipset support ECC. It boots with 2x*8Gb Samsung ECC UDIMM and Windows runs fine, but I could not prove ECC in Memtest 86. The...

Thanks for the remark. I did not recognize that the locked FDR and DER2 belong to FDT. As I understood it can be unlocked via a jumper on the motherboard and it would be required if the new FDT is different from the current one. In my case it was the same as the BIOS version was only one step...

This board does not offer BIOS update option in IPMI, unfortunately. I updated BIOS on other server boards via IPMI, though (e.g. Gigabyte MC12).

I have Ryzen 7 pro 5750ge and installed two NVME drives into ASUS Hyper M.2 x16 Gen 4 Card. With a setting 4x4x4x4 Bifurcation and 4x4x8 Bifurcation the MC12 board recognized one or the other NVME drive, but only one at a time. After setting 8x4x4 Bifurcation both drives appeared in BIOS and...

Hello guys, many thanks! I missed this part in the readme, because with Asrock boards it was not required in the past. Everything worked like a charm! BIOS updated, although it showed that two parts of the memory (FDR and DER2) have not been programmed, because they are locked (see photo...

Hello everyone, I have got the Supermicro x11SCA-F used on eBay and tried to update the BIOS from v2.1 to v2.2. The BIOS file downloaded from the Supermicro and the readme.txt tells about flashing from USB drive in EFI shell. There is a remark that Flash Descriptor Table (FDT) code will be...

Hello everyone, As a new member, I have read both this thread and the German forum linked here. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this great thread! I would like to share my experience, which may be helpful. 1. It seems that those who report issues with POST or VGA may be using monitors...

I purchased two of these boards. First one had similar to your simpthoms: no POST, only BMC access was available. With 5 3600 installed I have managed to update first the BMC to 12.61.17 and after that the BIOS to F11. After cold start updated versions are shown in WebUI. I tried 4 CPUs: 3 pro...
