New Xeons are trickling out

[MiniKnight]

Pricing is still screwing early adopters but they're starting to creep into retail

Few more weeks I am sure it will be close to normal expected price.
See a few of the more useful parts arrive in the retail channel as well.

 

[MiniKnight]

Yep.

I was so not excited by the new release until I saw 6 dimms on mATX,
X11SPM-TF | Motherboards | Products - Super Micro Computer, Inc.

Then I also saw the initial prices of the board as they hit retail, almost $400 for the 10g model... ouch !

I saw SM have moved to the better IPMI ast2500 form the 2400, Guess that will be faster and more energy efficient.

I'm not sure $400-ish for the mATX board is that surprising or troubling. With 12 SATA3 (no HBA required even for substantial disk), 10Gbe NIC embedded (no NIC card required) and on-board x4 m.2 NVME (fast disk for OS/Apps) its an amazing package. When you consider the cost of the board don't overlook the value of the things you don't have to buy to make a powerful server out of it.

I'm with @PigLover

Add a Xeon Silver 4108 when they're out and it's like a $817 8C/ 16T package. You'll have higher power than Xeon D but about the same purchase price and way more expandability RAM, SATA, PCIe, and such.

Oops I had in mind the wrong price for the older
10g version x10srm

192gb with 32gb dimms is a really nice memory config for those systems though.

Still has 12 volt support as well.

Paid through the nose for these:
