Review: jeder zeit wieder - 100% danke
Review: Excellent / Solid Board - I decided to order this board even though the only reviews that were listed were negative (mine arrived with NO bent pins). I paired it with ECC Ram - Kingston's KSM48E40BS8KM-16HM (2 sticks for 32GB) and an Intel 12600K - lowest/cheapest proc that supports ECC - be sure to check and see if your CPU support ECC before you order - not all do and may cause problems I would imagine. I also decided to run Debian 12 on it instead of Windows (Linux is not listed as a supported OS on ASUS's website). I have been using it for a couple weeks now and everything is working great. Here are a few caveats with this board that I have encountered: BMC remote management works great with Windows. However, I am running Debian and it works but remote control is a bit slow. However, the other features work fine (remote media, power control, etc). You can even flash the BIOS right from the BMC. Awesome! One thing to note with Linux - Do not have a monitor plugged into the server at the same time you are trying to use the Remote Control. The remote control ends up as a second screen and not the primary. This drove me crazy for a bit until I figured out what was going on. Run the server headless and you are ok. There may be a way around this but I haven't found it yet. The SlimSAS-SAS port does NOT support SAS disks unfortunately. I tried a slim SAS to SAS cable and it does not work. SlimSAS to SATA works fine though using the same cable. If you need SAS disk support, you will need a SAS controller card in one of the PCI Express slots. Debian OS - Have to set static ip address. For some reason when using DHCP it will not get an ip address unless you manually click connect in the dialog box (if you are using a GUI and KDE - maybe it will work if you just run without the GUI?? havent tested, need the GUI for my specific use case). 2.5Gbps networking works great. All other items were detected and work perfect - USB, etc. Overall I am happy with this board. Has some unique features that arent in too many boards such as ECC and the BMC. Also being able to use quick sync with the 12600K.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expensive but the only way to get ECC without xeons
*by J***B on 10 June 2024*

I use this in my home lab paired with i5 12600k & 64 GB ECC memory. Had some issues finding the IPMI password as it is not the default (admin, admin) Been running 24/7 non-stop since purchasing it (12 month uptime) Buy when its on sale or when intel moves on to the next socket as it should be cheaper.
