A number of people have asked me further info about this. Just to clarify, this is a TECH DEAL, and NOT a for sale post! If you have any questions, ask the seller, NOT me!
For what it’s worth, the RAM they sent me with this bundle is two 8GB sticks of Kingston 1600Mhz DDR3, much better quality than I would have expected for some tossed-in stuff.
i wonder if this board would support the E5-2678V3 since that supports both DDR3 and DDR4 memory. the supermicro page mentions only E5-26XX v2 compatibility…
My first board came with 2 broken memory retaining clips. They were happy to RMA it, and shipped out a new one super quick. The replacement board came with 4 x HP branded (Samsung 4GB M393B5170FH0-CH9Q5 ECC) DDR3 ECC.
Had the exact same modules just without heatsinks, and got it up to 32GB.
Building it today in the Rosewill 4500 chassis. Will post details soon. Have the motherboard standoff measurements if anyone needs them.
