I have this in a datacenter with a couple GPUs, it's great. I want an excuse to get another one, but I don't think it would be very well suited to home use because of the fans.

Great price at £99 with free shipping. More than 10 available.

Is it a full server? No mention of Motherboard, CPU, memory etc. Looks like an X10DRU board in the pic?

Got some < 80 GBP. X11DPUs will go in there. Great price even with customs and delivery.

If the boards are not included, I can offer you some. But in my opinion, case plus psu's are offered at a very great price.

[EDIT] Just keep in mind these X10DPU's support 2133 NVDimm-N's by standard which are really cheap on eBay at the moment. Even when you include the 'Power Units' incl cables.

Case is quite limited with what you can put in it right? These connectors
and shape

First thing that came to mind is 'if it's too loud, you're too old!' but I think that doesn't apply to servers, haha.

Shipping to the US isn't bad either at £50 for those looking. :) I expect these to be all gone in a few hours.

I know X10... X11... and X12DPU's are fitting in. I'm not quite sure about H11... and H12DSU. Already sent confirmation request to Supermicro support. But that would be a bummer and open some opportunities.

But with a Alphacool ES Pro 2U - 3 x 80 you can get the fans down to ~3-3.5K with ambient temps around 22C and the CPU is just chilling ~32-35C. That's quiet in my ears.

Possibly where they pulled the 100x 100 x Intel Xeon PROCESSOR CPU SR1Y3 E5-2673 v3 20MB L3 Cache 2.40GHz 12C 5GT/s | eBay must have been a fun day

That's actually a pretty solid deal since it's £5/TB for the whole thing which is basically buy the storage and get the server for free!

My guess is they have 150 in total 50 sold so far due to the fact they are selling 3x 100x E5-2673 auction lots.

Got mine delivered this morning if anyone has questions

Did Supermicro get back to you about H11/12

Yes, they mentioned they need a serial number of a case in order tobe able to confirm if they will fit. As I have to wait for the delivery, which will still take a while, I will need to get back to them later.

Interesting reply from Supermicro.

As this is an OEM product, I am unable to give you any information regarding the hardware in question. Not even something as simple as if a motherboard will fit or not.
