When I bought this MB I did not notice it is Supermicro EE-ATX propitiatory size. So I had hard time finding a case that fit. I tried a couple of full size towers, only the 2nd case "Phanteks Enthoo Pro TG Full ATX Chassis" worked. Off course it did not work out of the box. I had to realign the stand off and drill 3 holes for new positon for the stand off to match the MB. I could not mount all the MB screws, I was left out with 2 screws which I could not drill holes for because the mobo tray at that spot has cut out for cable management and CPUs etc. However the mobo was secure enough. I was able to finish my build.

The motherboard has to be sent back to SuperMicro for rework.. so that the ECO is upgraded to 14870 with this rev 1.10 board so e5-2600v2 CPU’s will run. Otherwise it is v1 processors only. *Current bios is v3.3. This board comes with v3.0. (If you do nothing but keep this board stock v1.10 Rev. then e5-2690 CPU’s are the best you can run on it. 8 cores / 16 threads.

Pros: dual SAS2 connectors for 8 harddrives, plenty of PCIe slots Cons: IPMI was not functioning out of the box, but fixed with BIOS update and reboots. Got 2 Xeons installed with Corsair H75 water coolers on them, 96GB of DDR3 ECC RAM, GTX 670, LSI2002 HBA, and VMware vSphere 6 running. Everything runs perfectly!

The product came with several bent CPU socket pins and there was crusty thermal grease in one of the CPU sockets. I was able bend the pins back into place and clean the thermal grease to salvage the board. It is functioning but required more frustration and effort than anticipated.
