Hi Everyone. Any idea if Milan does or will work on H11DSi? I ask because that board and it's variants are my go-to, but there is no H12 generation version.
Are you trolling? If not - check out https://forums.servethehome.com/index.php?threads/romed6u-2l2t-naples-support.32000/post-299703Socket SP3 upgrade compatibility has been a complete farce.
There is no socket SP3 motherboard/platform originally qualified for 7001 (Naples) series parts that accepts 7002 (Rome) parts

This has been and continues to be a BIOS footprint size/ROM compatibility issue without any actual public data, but it significantly hurts AMD near and longer term.
There has never been an SP3 upgrade path, regardless of what you read in the marketing materials.
You may want to blame the Motherboard vendor or OEM instead of the AMD platform itself. Support for new things doesn't magically trickle down from AMD to end users, they go though Firmware developers first.I have a pile of Rome only boards you are welcome to buy at a discount.
I didn't say throw away your old board, I said sell it to someone that is glad to save ~30% to be a generation behind.Yeah, more e-waste is always better
while I agree with you about motherboard manufacturers limiting the upgrade path (particularly with Milan), this bit about no upgrade path from 7001->7002, or 7002->7003 isn't true. there are a handful of boards that were "unlocked" for Rome/Milan by simply updating the BIOS.There is no socket SP3 motherboard/platform originally qualified for 7001 (Naples) series parts that accepts 7002 (Rome) parts

Model?I have a tyan 2P server that supports both 7002/7003. they also sell just the mb if needed. This server checks more boxes than anything I could find including the hp and dells of the world. ocp 3 with pci gen 4 support. 2 x m.2 pci gen 4. multiple pci gen 4 x16 slots. nvme hba standard (it might cost the same amount for this whole server to get an hp dl385 gen10 plus to support the same nvme drives!) dual 1600w platinum psus, dual onboard 10G nics, etc. they also came out with the milan bios the same day as amd officially released it (and even before if you asked nicely!)
