Selling some of my hardware that's been taking up valuable space.
The mobo is very nice but I only rarely used it for testing and really don't need the ridiculous 7 PCIe slots it offers, plus the board is physically huge.
Will update as items are sold or if I find new things to add to the list.

***The Quadros listed above were pulled from Dell Precision T5600s (http://www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/precn/en/Dell-Precision-T5600-Spec-Sheet.pdf). Compatibility with anything other than a T5600 is not guaranteed as I’ve seen it cause some boards to refuse to POST when installed. Had an ebay dispute due to this and I'd rather not have to explain myself again. Both work on my Gigabyte X58 mobo fwiw***

ah...my friend is gonna hate this. He just bought a Supermicro X8DTH-6F Motherboard for $150 from eBay. I was posting in the forum for him for a while, but no one has the spare X8DTH-6F/iF at that time. He should have waited for one more month.

Does your friend want a spare? He can become the king of PCIe slots!:cool:

That's a good deal on the 6F.

Updated sold items, added another Broadcom gigabit nic that was hiding in the drawer, flashed H310s, SAS-SATA cables, some more RAM and Supermicro PSUs.
Thanks for looking.

Almost tempted to try one of the graphics cards with win2016 for passthrough.
What do you think? Are they Full or Half Height?

Thanks

The video cards are both full height.
I've personally had success with both, but iirc the 2000 was less picky about board choice than the 4000.

Had an asrock z68 that didn't like the 4000 but worked with the 2000, but my gigabyte x58 board works with both.

If I was the gambling type I'd say yes for the 2000s, and a hesitant maybe for the 4000.
I can't guarantee anything of course, but they are working pulls - just don't want anyone to be disappointed.
