either way its more than I needed for what I am wanting to do- but heck of a price should get mine est the 8th
Do you have a link to the cable? I would like to purchase one today.836 works just fine but you'll need a supermicro front panel header extension cable set. The front panel is too far away from the terrible header positioning on the board.

Just ordered one... Thank you.
I have a e5-2660 v2 I'll throw in mine when I get time to wire it up lol.So who is gonna step up and test this with a V2 cpu??
Thanks. Let us know what bios version you have also.I have a e5-2660 v2 I'll throw in mine when I get time to wire it up lol.
I will as soon as I receive mine. I have a number of spare Intel Xeon E5-2650 V2 CPU SR1A8 Processor 2.60GHZ. If anyone is interested, I have some for sell.So who is gonna step up and test this with a V2 cpu??
This board's x8 slots do not have an open end and I don't think the BIOS has options for bifurcation. You would need something like the X9DRE-LN4F.I've read some of the same things. The Define XL R2 should for sure fit though and without having to add any standoffs myself.
Also, about the PCI-e slots. From what I've gathered they are PCIe 3.0 x8. So I could try to open one of the slots to use them with a GPU (1060 most likely) and use it as a workstation/gaming PC?
Should probably have verified that before I bought the board, but if it doesn't fit my needs I could always try to sell it for some profit or get a rackmount case and use it as a server.
