| Hi, Wondering if there are any Tyan or SuperMicro product gurus out there? I've a few Intel motherboards that need replacing with one capable of at least 256GB but no more than 384GB of RAM. My current Intel mobo; And the case its in, or rather what its part of; I'd need to keep the guts mainly being the Intel E5-2430 CPUs and simply swap out the mobos. The 8x16GB ECC RAM modules currently in it would be nice to keep but I doubt that a 16 slot capable mobo is in the cards. But if it is, coolio. The other requirement is 4 PCIe of which 3 need to be x8 gen 3 capable, The other can be x8 gen 2 capable. And lastly, I'd love to re use my power supplies and associated power distribution board and simply connect this new mobo. Many many thanks in advance, - Brian SoCals #1 Sandpaper Superstore.
