I read somewhere that it used desktop chips and didn't require dual QPI - FTW Maybe I'll be able to afford one ??

Would be cool, AFAIK only the 8 core desktop chips will have dual QPI.


FYI if you do not like the 6 SATA ports, why not use the 4 90degree angle SAS/SATA ports at the far corner of the board?


I see people complaining about cable managment wit hthe "normal" SATA ports, they are forgetting this is a SERVER sized board and will not fit in any ATX case that exists, only server chassis... in which case the SATA sockets should be fine

Although we will see, hints are these CPUs will not come with air coolers, so not sure what server cases are going to come out with spots for Watercooling
