June 14, 2021 update: seller accepted $45 offer (plus $15 shipping…so $60 total).

Original Post:
Was watching at a higher "30% Off Sale Price" price ($104.30 + $15 shipping) because it looked interesting. Received an offer from the seller today for $98.44 shipped ($83.44 + $15 shipping). Don't need it right now, so I'm passing it on. I assume if they're willing to offer that to me, they'd take it from others? YMMV of course:

The board is from SM"s embedded computing line, so no Xeons or ECC . Its an "L" (Low Cost SKU) variant, so less on-board components (no sound & fewer onboard ports/connectors) than the "standard board" that STH reviewed, but I assume the core performance is the same:

I got lower price offers today for another three items I was watching from this seller (minostechnology), so I guess they're wanting to move some inventory? I've bought from them before with no issues (and I'm not affiliated with them).

No affiliation, but I've purchased from minostechnology a few times and have always had a great experience. They have also been generous with offers - at least compared to some of the other popular sellers.

this could make a nice quicksync box

the open-ended x1 and x4 could fit a 1030 or P1000?

I don't think the x1 is open-ended, but the x4 is as far as I can see. G4560 does have QuickSync support, though.

Update: Seller lowered the price to $59 (+ $15 shipping) but took an offer of $45 (+$15 shipping....so $60 shipped in the U.S.) without countering.

With prices going crazy right now, I thought it was a pretty good deal for an Intel 7th Gen Kaby Lake CPU and 8GB of RAM, even if the CPU is only 2C/4T. Plus you get a stripped down Supermicro X11 board and CPU cooler as an added bonus!

As noted in posts above though: The board is from the "Low Cost" value line: no sound, no IPMI, no ECC. So, the use cases are more limited.

But what can you expect these days for $60 shipped?

ATM still 42 available.

Well, wife and kids told me this morning that they are stumped for a Father’s Day gift, so can I just do them a favor and go buy myself something. So, maybe it’s time to go shopping?

Anybody know how loud the stock cooler is?

I’ll know more when I get it, but it looks to be a Cooljag DEN-7, which I know from experience isn’t bad at idle, but gets loud when it spins up (tops out at 51db per the spec sheet). It’s supposed to be rated for 65w and this CPU has a TDP of 54, so there’s a bit of headroom. I know I won’t be hitting this CPU super hard though, so I planned on setting the fan curve to “Optimal” , throwing a Noctua noise reducer on the cable, and crossing my fingers.

For me, this is a good thing. :p

I'd hate for you to miss out ;) . So, I wanted to make sure you knew that they have more!

They originally had stock of these on two different, but as far as I could tell, identical listings. On one they lowered the price and the other they didn't. That one is still showing $99. But, if they were willing to take $45 +shipping for the same thing on another listing.......

This way you can still get yourself a half dozen....or 52.

ACK, doggoneit. :p

Gonna sleep on it. If this board had ipmi and dual NIc I'd be all over it but without these and no sound, Not so sure what I could use this for. A NAS maybe but I'd prefer EEC then. I just bought to of the itx boards I posted in another thread so I might sit this one out. Then again, maybe not.... :confused:
