motherboard

Hello there, I need some motherboard suggestions, and whether I can salvage parts of my old server: It has been 13 years since I built a file server for my home: SUPERMICRO SYS-5027R-WRF 2U Server Barebone LGA 2011 DDR3 1600 Intel Xeon E5-2609 2.4GHz LGA 2011 80W Quad-Core Server Processor...

Hi all, I’m evaluating the ASRock Rack GNRD8-2L2T motherboard for a PCIe/NVMe-heavy workstation/server build using an Intel Xeon 6521P (Socket E2 / LGA4710, 136 PCIe Gen 5 lanes). Since the manual doesn’t cover all the fine details, and I’ve yet to hear back from ASRock, I’m hoping someone...

Hi, need/use case: High Performance Computing. I found: (1) GigaByte MZ73-LM2 Rev. 3.x E-ATX: as well as its predecessors have the famous ""WAIT FOR CHIPSET TO INITIALIZE"" issue and the Gigabyte support that let's you down. (2) TURIN2D24G-2L+/500W: doesn't seem to have the usual PCI stuff...

Hi, I would like to make use of the slimSAS connection on my ASUS ROG Crosshair X870E Hero motherboard. I bought an SFF-8654 4i 38 Pin Host to 4 SATA cable: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073F67WVN But when I plug my HDDs in they are not recognised. Motherboard setting is set to default 'auto'...

Hi! Looking to purchase 1-2 of the now sold out Gigabyte MC12-LE0 motherboard. Within EU only due to freight costs. Send me a PM! /b3rrytech EDIT: Already purchased other gear and no longer looking to purchase.

Hi folks I have two switches (SX6036 and ICX7450) with 40gb qsfp+ ports that I'd like to use for connecting to the router. My current router that I purchased before I got the switches with sfp/qsfp ports only has RJ45 that can handle 2.5gb (this cwwk box). I could go down the path of...

I'm slowly getting ready to upgrade my 7 years old desktop, and after about 20 years of hiatus, I think I'm ready to get back to Team Red. Looking at the current processor portfolio, I narrowed my choice down to 9900x with 96GB of RAM (2x48G). However, choosing the motherboard is much more...

I am in the process of transitioning from the venerable X99 (and E5-2697 v4) in my workstation to an AM5 system. The CPU choice is easy (9950X) but I am curious about the motherboards as we know AM5 is a bit scant on PCIe lanes. What I am looking for is a (workstation) board that will serve: -...

Can anyone help identify what the CPU fan connector (highlighted on the image) is on this motherboard? It is a 4 pin PWM connector but I can't quite make out what type. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hey. I haven't heard a lot about this socket since they first came out with the weird PHI CPUs that were apparently a dud. Is there a reason they're so frequently passed over? They look super inexpensive on the used market now, basically starting at next to nothing, but the only real...

Howdy. I'm looking to pick up one of these boards if/when the prices drop again this November. I remember reading in Will's review that he mentioned the board supporting up to 256gb DDR4 Rdimms... but there are none on the qvl. Additionally, the qvl list seems a little sparse for any of the...

Hi! I am Scandinavian so I do apoligize if my English is a bit Norwenglish =) but I'll do my best. I got this board in a home lab and it's been working good in the past. All of a sudden, after a powerdown to change a HDD I can't get it to boot, and not only that. No beep, no screen, keyboard...

Hello folks! I'm considering buy the ASRock Rack GENOAD8X-2T/BCM to pair with a AMD EPYC 9754 for my homelab. I've found the review from STH site (btw, thanks STH! Awesome review and show that this board seems very versatile!) and also read the manual to the end and one thing is not matching to...

I am planning to use ECC RAM with 128gb, and AMD 7950x3d or AMD 7900. It can be ATX as well. I will put the server in a datacenter.

Hi all. I'm completely new to server builds and just built my first PC. It's based on the ROMED8-2T with an Epyc 7302P. 128 GB RAM (32x4). I have a 2TB SSD. 2x1TB M2 SSDs. 12TBx6 HDDs that will ultimately be in a raidz2 config. Noctua cooler. Corsair 750 power supply. Housing is Fractal Design...

tearing my hair out here. I've got both a 5700xt and a 7900xtx that wont show up. I've tried every slot it will fit in, and also the others with a pcie riser card and none of them get either card to show up in lspci. I've plugged and unplugged all the power cables dozens of times. I've tried...

Hey all, I am currently looking for this kind of card at a good price, or equivalent, please contact me if you have this on hand.

Please delete this thread.

Hello, I've been into the PC building scene for about a decade now, but I recently acquired my first server-grade parts: a Dell Poweredge T420 motherboard with 2 xeon processors. Since I only have the motherboard, I don't actually possess the necessary control panel that plugs into the header...
