    SuperMicro 1U server X8DTL-i LGA1366 Dual CPU 5600/5500 series Motherboard

    Mixed feelings about this board.
    I bought this board to put in a desktop case with 2 x XEON processors for games use. There were several technical issues to overcome some of which I was expecting and some that I was not. 1. The 650 Watt PSU I bought only had one processor connector. Luckily you can buy adaptor cable to provide a second one. 2. The case which I bought (Bitfenix Neos) had fixed system board mounting posts. This system board had no holes which lined up with two of these post which would have caused a short circuit as they contacted with the underside of the motherboard so I had to drill them out of the case to remove the danger. 3. The PCI-E slot for the video card has no retaining clip to help hold the card in place, which may be problematic later. 4. Even with the latest firmware, there is a curious issue whereby if the chipset gets a little too warm (more than about 50c) then the CPU fans speed up causing a noise issue!!! The only solution I could find so far is to direct a sixth case fan directly at the chipset chips which are the two large chips with low heat sinks behind the PCI slots. Larger profile heat sinks may have avoided this requirement. 5. Only supports USB 2 and SATA 2 so I installed a USB 3 PCIe card and a SATA 3 PCIe card. 6. No onboard sound but a USB SoundBlaster play sorted that. After all these changes the system now works quite rapidly with a GTX-460 graphic card and 32GB RAM.
