82 TFLOPS and work

This is just a very brief overview. DDR4 2666) 2x Xeon Gold 6138T (80 threads) 4x Nvidia TITAN XP.24TB HDD (2x12TB) Samsung NVMe 970 PRO SSD 8 high-performance 4.5A air-cooled server fans (but noisy in this case) Cooler Master HAFX Super Tower We run it at 100 % CPU and 100% GPU usage for hours. I modified the case to keep the air system below 75 °C for the GPU and below 56 °C for the CPU). .Next year I will build a PATAFLOP system with 13 of these systems in parallel for <$400,000…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Functionality

The first check has not yet completed the build.

When I built my first server I was pissed when I got it and saw that the CPU slots listed in the description didn't match the ones that actually fit on this board. This uses LGA 3647. NOT 2066!

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Good but not great

This board is rubbish

Pcie split is unreliable, works on some slots and sometimes but not stable. Loading is erratic, sometimes loading, sometimes not. He eventually died with code 78 after almost 12 hours at work. It's boring - garbage

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Expensive

YUP! Computer Components

I have not used this board since purchasing it. However, when I replaced my X11DPH-i with a C621 SAGE, the Q code showed me 00. I tried to find the problem and started replacing 1 with 1. But in the end I realized that this board is dead. So I tried to request RMB from ASUS but ASUS said that this board has already received an RMA. So you sent me defective products that you are willing to get warranty from ASUS A/S?

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • No Performance

It took me 6 months to figure out what's wrong with my system. If you want to use the M.2 SSD connector, your system will only see your SATA hard drives as USB drives. ASUS support first tried to tell m,e to reinstall windows! I'm surprised they told me to make sure it's plugged in first. When they finally faced reality, they had to admit that they didn't even know how to properly set up this board. Terrible customer service! And it's a shame. ASUS was one of my favorite companies. I have had…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • There are nuances

DOA get something else

Bought two of these motherboards, two processors and four memory sticks, all from the approved list on the ASUS website. Spend the last 4 days trying to get it working as ASUS was contacted 3 days ago. I'm still waiting for an answer. Always stuck on bb and then on code b8. I just bought a Supermicro x11dpi-nt, let's see if I have any luck with that. I would avoid for now.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • New competitors have emerged

Fourth Time Spell!

Let me start by saying this board is an ABSOLUTE UNIT motherboard!. That being said, if you decide to use this board, DO NOT BUY IT ON AMAZON! Buy direct from ASUS! The first one I got was DOA. The second didn't read all PCIe slots. The third read all the PCIe slots, but only the DIMM slots for a processor socket! I then decided to send the third board back directly through ASUS instead of sending it back through Revain and in fact the fourth board I received works great! I don't know if ASUS…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Modern
