It's tempting to get one just to try it out...lol ... anyone else did? whats yr experience?
Please note the inclusion of two DDR3 as well as two DDR4 for 2x 16GB ram max. only certain v3 cpu support ddr3.
Seems like a cheap way to get almost the multicore performance of i7-12700 much much less seeing that 2699v3 is only $140 or less

Or how about this dual 2011-v3 MB for less than $150?

the first is not C612 chipset, and both have only dual channel memory.
i would take none of them.
for about $200 you can get a refurbished SM X10DRL-I with better support.

one M.2 is PCIe 2.0 x4 (from PCH)
the power stages are solo MOS not Dr.MOS - not more than 120W or you get a heat problem.
sound & dual M.2 can be done with add on card if required.

only 120W? that really sucks because most of the higher end v3 are closer to 145W ;(.
I guess there are just not as good as the x79 chinese MB then?
I guess the other alternatives would be to get the HP Z440 MB (and the power adapter cables).
Anyone else know a good place to get the dual cpu MB? they are like usually more than $400 ;(

did'nt say 145W not work, 120Wis the safe area. the MOS runs hot, you have to put a cooler blowing direct on it.
there are many other X99 with not such big problems.

That dell R430 is very interesting seems like there are more dimm slots for one cpu than the other one. Wonder how that asymmetry affects the distribution of workload across both cpu

That dual mining MB looks even better than the one i posted in my original post. that board seems like the best one for dual cpu so far from china. But i wonder if that is also low power ;(... how can we tell? also interesting it say sata II ....lol.... that kinda slow down a lot of the sata 3 ssd.... As well as also two 100Mbit LAN ports not 1Gbit....

I have two single cpu 2011 v3 (x99 tachi and x10sra) and one dual cpu 2011v3 (x10pe-d16) board. So i would like to get another dual cpu one if possible.
