Are there more details? There is the official ASpeed website with some info, but it is a bit lackluster...

For local video output, do these have analog VGA support only or they finally added a digital video output? I know that VGA is still widely used on some market segments, but it dissapoints me that there doesn't seem to be even a minimum of interest to add a digital alternative like DisplayPort (Or hell, even already ancient DVI-D).


I'l answer myself: According to this presentation, there is a slide where they mention Display Port.

Those are solid BMC upgrades. When will see start seeing these in Supermicro boards?

My guess is 2020 on the Intel side as new platforms arrive for next-gen parts. Maybe the initial Cooper push, but if not, then for the Ice Lake platforms in the second half of 2020.

Not official confirmation, just a guess based on release to adoption timing.
