Most Critical Review

Great Board but limited Support

SUPERMICRO MBD-X10SDV-TLN4F-O Mini ITX Server Motherboard Xeon Processor D-1541 FCBGA 1667
SUPERMICRO MBD-X10SDV-TLN4F-O Mini ITX Server Motherboard Xeon Processor D-1541 FCBGA 1667

Pros: I purchased this board in late 2018, has all the features and more that you would want for a mini ITX board. Four LAN ports 2 of which are 10G, even an NVME port, You cant get all of those features on a consumer board.

Cons: The only downside, the processor needs serious cooling and there are very limited heat sinks available and even those are not great. The other downside is the support. The NVME holder on the board has parted ways with the motherboard and I'm holding it in my hands, it just fell off. I tried calling NewEgg they washed their hands and said it is out of warranty, Supermicro wants you to go write an entire 500-word essay just to see if you are eligible for an RMA. Ridiculous, so I'm sitting with a board with great potential which can't be realized because of the lack of support.

Overall Review: Great board for all the features packed into it IPMI, 10G Lan, NVME Four memory slots and support ECC ram Limited heatsink availability
