Look at the RAID support. SB600/700/710 don't have RAID5, SB750 does.
SB700S -> SP5100 by the looks of it. Way before SB750 was a twinkle in our eye that Wikipedia article also mentioned a SB710S in the works with something like ACC.

For now, I'm sticking to it being SB750 due to the following:

Attaching some results with "12x Opteron 2431 (2400 MHz)
Supermicro H8DI3+-F ".
-Since everest wont run for you (yet).
Have you got these thing overclocked yet ?!?
Can I make a request for this thread and others to follow-If a Thread this Awesome gets to this length-can we get it converted to an audio file so if I decide to reread it again in the future i can listen to it instead.Thank you:cool:
Particle did you ever get your Istanbul CPU's over 2.5GHz

Might Ntune work with a pair of Istanbul CPU's on an nforce chipset, or would I run into the same problem that particle is having without being able to increase the vcore.
My problem was never vcore. I couldn't get HTT up high enough for that to matter. Those ancient nVidia chipset boards (MCP55/nForce 3600 Pro) have unstable clock generators just like all the other AMD boards designed around that time. Remember those initial Socket 939 days where people still had to worry about how high they could crank HT ref? Same deal. Boards seem to get to ~220-230 MHz.
I've bought a new board based on AMD's SR5690 chipset, but nothing seems to exist that will allow me to overclock with it. AMD Overdrive crashes when there are > 4 CPUs in a system. I've been talking to the creator of SetFSB and even paid him a good chunk, but for whatever reason he hasn't ever added support for this clock generator. Now his page says something along the lines of he's not going to work on it anymore. I think I'm just boned. All I need is something that can change my HT reference clock for goodness sake.
Anyone know of anything other than SetFSB? I've got money. I can pay someone to develop this thing if that's what it'll take.
I think a lot of us here would like that. I know I am waiting for the new server socket to be launched to buya board based on this chipset, and it would be nice to finally be able to overclock again since I moved to dual socket computers.
Wow, that's morally bankrupt. He should give you the money back at the very least. It's a man's word worth anything these days?

He seemed disinterested, as every time I emailed him it was like starting all over again. He didn't appear to remember that I'd already contacted him and that he was going to work on it.
Thanks to a member of this forum, however, there is some hope. I've been in contact with some BIOS engineers who have been kind enough to take an active interest in my pursuit. They're going to try to get something going with any luck.
Has anybody succefully moded the bios on this board?
Hi particle,
I received one of those S8212 dual socket boards yesterday and I'm abit lost atm gettinge this kvm stuff working. I assume your supermicro board also has the aspeed 2050 chip with bmc and kvm capabilities. Do you have any monitoring or management software? tyan only shiped the board with an basic driver cd.
I was equally perplexed, unfortunately. I don't have any idea how that stuff is supposed to work. I looked around for a software front-end that could actually do something with that capability but didn't see anything from Supermicro. I'm not sure how they expect people to use it.
Well I asked tyan support and it's so easy. :)Quote:

Then go to another PC and insert this IP in the address bar of your browser. You can then login with user: root and password: superuser.
In the webinterface you have the option to read the sensors and also to start the remote console which is the KVM function.
