Ah honesty...
...they are both “used” by me to the extent I bought them as back ups and tested them by putting in ram chips and power. Then put away in a box of my boards

I have 4, I’m considering 2 as now unnecessary as my original board is still flawless. The one extra board is going into a similar build but using my prior 4 Titan XP quad Sli and my prior pair of e5-2699 v3

That leaves me 3 boards: 1 spare and 2 that I don’t think I’ll need.

I hope that answers the question.

Price:
As they are both "used" and originally about $640 each and I want to make some room in my study/lab (moving house) I would let both go (package deal) for $200 total (plus shipping).

rules: I'm doing this because I like this forum and members, For 100 bucks a board I will not be responsible for anything after the transaction. I do have a perfect reputation. If for some reason a board gives you issues, you still have the other one.


suggestions:
put bios 3.0 only on the board
DO NOT put the Specter variant BS microcode bios 3.1 on it cuz it slows everything down.
The 3.0 bios is no longer available on the supermicro site, so I will be happy to email it to you.

Bios flashing: --> done by onboard utility. piece of cake.

You must use the "maintenance mode" jumper to flash the bios, after flash put the jumper back in its original position.



Anyhow, let me know. Just trying to do you a favor

The boards are reported to be working I guess...the thing is: you havent been playing with them since you got them?¿? I suppose the CPU pins on the sockets are okay?¿? I know that for that litle money you wont be responsible...

Wowwwwww really $200 for 2 boards REALLYYYYY?¿ I am very surprised...

I looked at the image, are you going to send each of them inside its SuperMicro motherboard box...If I m not wrong under the board, there is a SuperMicro board...

Do you have I/O shields for the boards?¿ If not, nothing happens because I have seen some on eBay...

About how to do the payment...PayPal or whatever?¿? About the shipping USPS or whatever?¿?

Please can we take the comunication by email?¿?


I am really interested please we can comunicate,

"Why Xeon though, didn't want to wait for Epyc 2?"


There are no dual epic motherboards with 4x gpu capability, sound, etc. (workstation)

otherwise I would have used one

Can we upload the 3.0 bios somewhere we can access easily like GDrive or attach to the forum?
