Hi!

I am looking for a Mini-ITX board to be mounted in a Supermicro 721TQ-250B mini-tower. My requirements are:

- S3 sleep state (Suspend to RAM) support and wakeup via RTC
- IPMI
- support for at least 16 GB of RAM
- PCIe 2.0 x4 slot or better
- no more than 4 years old
- preferably Supermicro

None of the Supermicro A1SRI, A2SDI, X10SDV and M11SDV boards fit the bill as they do not support suspend to RAM. I was eying the Supermicro X11SCL-iF paired with a Celeron T or Pentium T but I am not sure if it can do S2RAM, the manual only mentioned support for ACPI S4/S5. Does anyone have this board (or any other X11SCL) and can report on S3 support? Are there any other boards out there that fit my requirements?

Thanks.

X11SCV-Q might since it's intended to be a desktop board. It has IPMI through Intel AMT.

Looks promising, I didn't even consider AMT. Of course to use it an i5 or i7 is required which may be a bit of overkill for my application. I think I might go with the predecessor board (X11SSV-Q) paired with a used Core i5-6500T if nothing better shows up.
