Overview

A system builder putting together a single socket EPYC server or workstation gets a Supermicro board with a full row of current generation memory slots and several PCIe slots. Dual ten gigabit networking and a BMC for remote management come built in.

Twelve memory channels, a stack of current generation PCIe slots and onboard ten gigabit LAN suit storage servers, virtualization hosts and GPU workstations. Memory population rules are only summarized, so check the system memory section before buying DIMMs.

Who it's for

Business server rooms and advanced home labs that run many virtual machines or need fast networking will use the slots and lanes. Builders of ordinary gaming or office PCs should look at a desktop platform instead.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Twelve DDR5 slots
  • Five PCIe 5.0 slots
  • Dual ten gigabit LAN onboard
  • BMC for remote management
Cons
  • Memory rules only summarized
  • Processor and memory not included
  • Not for consumer desktop processors

Performance notes

Memory bandwidth scales with how many of the twelve DIMM slots are filled, one per channel, so populating all of them gives the full rate. The PCIe slots connect directly to the processor, and the BMC handles monitoring and remote control independent of the operating system.
