- Lots of PCIe lanes - True x16 PCIe slot that can bifurcate to x4x4x4x4 - True x4 Slot - And a x1 Slot - Two M.2 slots that do not interfere with any other component

IPMI alone has to be the biggest feature! Board looks built to last decades


Everything works, The IPMI web interface is fast and easy.


Works well with RDIMM memory and an Epyc 9416 CPU that I had laying around.



Boots pretty well. Detected crucial ddr5 just fine. Error codes were nice during putting together.

Great board; they really pack a lot into a small form factor!

- CPU comes preinstalled - Plenty of PCI slots - Stable under load - Remote management interface

- I/O for days, there is so so much I/O for something this size! 6x slimsas 8x gen 4!!!!!! WuT! -Asrock Rack worked a pcb engineering miracle! -Seems really well made and all the features of a full size server -Perfect board for the ultimate home server built in a boutique sff. -A great option for the cheap oem 32 core 7d12 if you want to put this in something small the 7d12's lower power is easy to keep cool, also the 7d12 is a 4 memory channel chip so you are not wasting any slots! -Got on sale for $379 insane deal.

I gave this product full stars because is worked as advertised without issue successfully from day one for the last ninety days plus. This is after two failed attempts using the ASUS Pro WS WRX90E-SAGE and a six month hiatus. For details, see my Total Disaster Newegg review for that ASUS motherboard. Other than solid quality and solid reliability, it is difficult for me to review this Gigabyte board. The reason is that the board is most definitely designed to be a server motherboard. I configured it into a workstation motherboard.


Great product !!! 9.8 of 10 Work with the All server OS & Nas Os ,Windows Server ,TrueNas, Linux , Open Media Vault , Ubuntu Server ,Rockstor....etc. No need for Graphics Card and you can control it remotely even turn on and off ! :) no need for monitor , and does not consume a lot of power .Its work 24/7 Price Vs performance 10 of 10 .........very fast ....and .powerful ...nice Asrock !!

Good price for the package Thick, solid motherboard 5 fan headers Doesn't run very hot (Mine is around 45 degrees C with the terrible fan setup I temporarily have on it.)




The BMC is a little clunky, but very helpful. I can't see myself getting another server that doesn't have it.
