the fact that there was enough space on the cpu to apply thermal paste in every possible way
They're freakin' massive. Like the size of two LGA1700 CPUs.
The fact that it's big enough for me to cook a little 4 ounce steak on it 🤣. It's ok, it's "Evaporative cooling"
@@sanguinesomnambulist I mean it's dual CPUs, so we can do at least 8 oz. Haha I've got a 13900k for those nice grill marks. .
That thermal paste application joke was solid gold, you rock!
Server build with this motherboard coming soon! Well, as soon as I can get it back from having the missing pins fixed. Supermicro said 60-90 days(!).
Because I got this damaged board so cheap ($61 USD including shipping from Canada to the US!), I really wasn't expecting it to work at all. Plus the CPUs were so expensive I was just going to do a video showing off the board. Once I figured out the 8352Y ES CPUs were ~$150 each I figured I'd take a shot at getting it working. Now that I know it seems to just be the missing pins on CPU2, I'm going to go all in with this board and make a crazy VM system.
A lot of the times cpu 2 controls more components on the board like the other lanes. Sometimes supermicro will replace the socket's for a fee. Not sure if this is one they can or will do that on. But worth asking.
@@tacticalcenter8658 At least according to the block diagram, CPU2 is most of the PCIe slots and CPU1 is everything else, plus a couple slots. I did try that with SM, but they required a whole $50 to fix it - which is no problem at all with me.
@@PeterBrockie nice! Then you got a really good deal!
I love your videos and the thermal paste commentary. Excited to see the finished build. Also kitties!
I love the kitties at the end
Very important that they make an appearance. :D
The algorithm chooses YOU!
If you want to get silly, the M.2 has 1x4 PCIe, you can get M.2 to SFF-8643 adapters, you can get SFF-8643 to SFF-8639/U.2 cables, U.2 carries up to 4 PCIe lanes, and most jargony of all you can get U.2 2.5" 2x M.2 carrier boards, with the caveat that these usually support one NVMe drive and one SATA3 drive and I'm not sure this motherboard offers SATA on the M.2 port, if it does that's still not great, if it doesn't then you would need a RAID carrier board that presents one NVMe device, which isn't great either.
9:30 I actually thought Pentium scalable cpus existed after you said that lol, I was quite surprised. Anyways I love the videos man! Thanks!
Nice board, add a nice M.2 ssd !! Love Supermicro Boards.
The SATA ports are orange because they support SATA DOM devices.
Also those x8 connectors are known as Oculink.
Oculink is different. It only supports x4 lanes instead of x8 (although there is an 4i miniSAS with only x4). Connectors are totally different. But they do similar things and Oculink seems to be more common. Oculink also supports a SATA mode which at least on this motherboard, miniSAS does not.

The orange ones on supermicro boards are called "SuperDOM" short for supermicro sata DOM (disk on module)
Cool cats 😎
Orange SATA are DOM connector "w Power". You have so much hardware for someone who don't do too much Server H/W :). Thanks for the video. Great stuff
SuperDOM!
@@gg-gn3re I think it is called SATA DOM maybe I’m wrong. Their is another type USB DOM
@@jacj2490 Nope, it's SuperDOM specific to supermicro boards
Great platform if you can make use of the AVX-512 instructions. Otherwise, power efficiency is quite bad compared to AMD Epyc.
👍
I have some doubts that Optane will ever reach a reasonable price, in fact it wouldn't surprise me that it actually went up in price not much far into a decommissioning season for the servers that use those, its features and unique technologies together with having been abandoned as a tech at a stage in its life when its current features and specifics make it likely viable for many use cases even by the time their servers go out make it likely the price will be a nightmare for ever. I hope not though... Would love me to get another decommissioned server as an upgrade to my current NAS with such toys on it.
Optane is already dead according to Intel. I'm just sad to see it go. Amazing endurance and low latency.
@@PeterBrockie yep, that is one of the reasons I believe the price will be bonkers for a long time.
I hate thermal past from now on.... 😫 I go for cat food...😻👍
I hope the Chinese start cloning these boards like they did x79 and x99, 🤞
They seem to only start doing that after it's a few generations old. Might be waiting a while. :D
Board goes for 1k$+ so literally u got it for free
no wonder if in the end its a board with ton of cores (which is a downside too if we consider frequency) and PCIe slot lanes less that desktop..
