Xeon W-2155 1U Rackmount

[hughesfleming]

I was looking at Supermicro's motherboards for the Xeon W series. I noticed that their Micro ATX boards can be rack mounted. In particular, I am considering the W-2155 as a lower cost alternative to the higher clock speed socket 3647 options. I don't need much storage or memory for this particular application. Is this a bad idea?

Thanks,

Alex

Good idea if the platform works for you. The only thing to keep in mind is that you need to ensure you have proper cooling and airflow.
