Re: Intel Socket 1155 S1200BTS -- What is to be done with?
I'd say a working Intel 1155 server board is worth a lot more than $16.
Re: Intel Socket 1155 S1200BTS -- What is to be done with?
I notice it doesn't support SATA 6Gbps.
Re: Intel Socket 1155 S1200BTS -- What is to be done with?
-supports only i3 or e3 nothing more
-requires ECC RAM
-sports a "SM712GX04LF02-BA" SiliconMotion VGA-chip, haven't found any data about that one in a quick search
-only SATAII
-no USB3
This one was build with certain scenarios in mind, HPC and such. Personally i wouldn't tinker with it, even if i get it free. To severe are the restictions imho and we do not know if any PCIE graphics card is supported.

Thank you all together and each sub-set of for helping clarify these matters!

Noticed so too. ...Might via|through an interesting converter&driver though.CA_Steve wrote:I notice it doesn't support SATA 6Gbps.

But it's not worth that much. I assume this was the launch price.T K wrote:Otherwise priced at ~€160.

Most small servers would not have much use for 6 Gbps (nor USB3, fancy graphics or non-ECC RAM). This is a *server* board people.
But why "interesting converter&driver"? Couldn't you simply use a decent HBA?
