Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Lol I was doing the same thing yesterday but when someone on H hooks you up with pre -apocalypse pricing, you do not look that gift horse in the mouth :)
Bump for a good price ... If I didn't just score some 8TB's for my array recently I'd be in on 6 ....maybe this means I need a second enclosure to tandem off my server ...
Yes I think you are right. It should be octa-channel with all eight dimm slots populated. As for processor compatibility, I do not know, I would check the official Supermicro matrix to see what could be a drop-in, but I am selling the motherboard...
