Cheap chinese x79 mobos

[Dukenukemx]

Are there any good alternatives in regards to cheap boards that take DDR3 with these special e5 v3 cpus?

If you find one let me know.

Got my refund my Alibaba and I don't even need to return the motherboard.

Sorry to bring back up a dead thread, but do these chinese boards support intel VT-D?

Mine do (I have boards from Killsre, Huananxhi and Jingsha).

I.e we would be able to do SR-IOV to KVM guests? Would be really nice if anyone can confirm that.

yes, but only if your CPU does support VT-D.

I actually got my money and got to keep the motherboard as well. I'm not using it but I figure I'll try to make S3 sleep work somehow. I got the BIOS that Gamers Nexus did the test on this motherboard and it fixed nothing. Was hoping someone found a solution. What's important is that I tried. I may replace a FX8350 for this but I'm not sure if losing S3 sleep is worth it.

dumb question, why are these boards so expensive?
And by "expensive" I mean... like $80?

I have a 2630v2 chip and some DDR3 laying around, but that's too much money to pay just for laughs. Are there truly cheap ones out there?

Its a valid question, I think part of it was chip shortage and supply chain. Now its just inflated prices, hard to just buying 10+ year old tech when modern CPU deals can be had for near the same cost and much better single threaded performance and lower power

Hi,

I got an Atermiter X79 Turbo. Is this Motherboard capable to use UEFI?

 

[RolloZ170]

Atermiter X79 Turbo

should be same than PLEXHD X79 Turbo ( Vakind, Eastvita, Aterminer, Kllisre, PlexHD )

Can I flash the BIOS of the plexhd on the Atermiter?

 

[RolloZ170]

Can I flash the BIOS of the plexhd on the Atermiter?

I can't find a bios for the Atermiter, that's why.

It runs since ~6 month fine with proxmox or truenas scale @UEFI with a Dell H310 and without gpu. I wanted to replace the H310 with a HP H240. With this Card installed it stuck at Post with Code 92. I even deactivated CSM, but nothing. Without a GPU it doesn't even beep anymore. Replacing the H240 with the H310 again everything ist fine again

h310 is PCIe 2.0
H240 is PCIe 3.0
try to set this PCIe slot manualy to pcie 2 (not AUTO)

Why? I want the H240 because it is PCIe 3.0

 

[RolloZ170]

Why? I want the H240 because it is PCIe 3.0

you see don't work ! have you Ivy-Bridge CPU ? chipset and Board rev. still unknown.
if it still don't work with set to PCIe 2.0 we can try other things.
