Hi. As narrated in other threads, I'm having a bad experience with the Epyc Rome platform. Most likely it is because I got a faulty motherboard, but since I have the chance of returning my Epyc Rome, to avoid further hassle I'm considering to switch to a Xeon scalable platform, since I found a Xeon 8153 at a reasonable price. The motherboard should be the X11SPA. I'm considering it over the Asus C621-64L since it has a dedicated ipmi. Allow me to ask you a couple questions.
1. I was under the impression that Supermicro boards were a bit picky about memory. Is that true? Would it accept my Samsung RDIMMs (they are not in the QVL, but they went fine on an X99 platform as well as the EPYCD8-2T).
2. It comes in two flavours X11SPA-T and X11SPA-TF, but I was unable to discern the difference, looking at the specs. Does anyone know it?
Thanks!
