Thinking about building a workstation based on this seeing how cheap it is on natex.
Main question I have is it seems the black 16x pcie slot is blocked by the memory module, so would have to install a full size card (like quadro 6000 or gtx 1070) onto one of the blue slots with the clip? would the heatsink on the chip set interfere with the clearance for the card?
What's your overall take on using this board as a basis for a workstation built? I can easily add a usb 3.0 card and that would bring it into line with a dell t7600. I don't like the dell t7600 or hp z820 due to a lot of customized hardware.
