kys.

Actual good 10GbE chips like Inte's are $200-$250.

Aquantia is some unstable chink shit like Realtek that's not ready for real world usage.

FYI I can always add a 10GbE PCIe card later. No biggie.

Is that a daughterboard or an insanely large vreg heatsink?

this is what im considering as well

what was your thought process/considerations when you decided onw hich x399 board to go with? so far they seem largely similar to me, minus gayming aesthetic lights and some meme 10 GbE shit. any key features is hould be mindful of?
>>
>>61684634

>>61684783
Just a heatsink

>>61684669

I'm not super knowledgeable with mobos, but at the moment there aren't really too many choices:

>Asus Zenith
More money than I want to spend, don't need 10G

>Asus Prime
Don't like how the PCI slots are laid out.

>Asrock Taichi
>a fucking cog

>Asrock Fatality
More money than I want to spend, don't need 10G

>Gigabyte Aorus
I asked for opinions here yesterday and a couple of people said Gigabyte has shitty BIOS. The board also looks pretty fruity. I know that shouldn't matter but damn it looks dumb.

That leaves the MSI. Their boards seem to have an okay reputation and the price is acceptable. We recently built an X99 workstation at my job that has a gaming pro carbon board and we've had no complaints. That being said I've heard MSI are cunts when it comes to RMAs. You hear horror stories about all motherboard manufacturers though.
>>
op here

just realized that the zenith extreme is over $500 but only has 1 x M.2

what the literal fuck
>>
>>61685349
It's 1 m.2 slot native and two more on riser card that you plug into DIMM.2 slot.

prime x399-ws with more pcie/m.2 slots when?

It has a vertical M.2 slot.

Still only two slots where every other X399 board has three. There's the U.2 port as well I guess but it seems kinda useless.
>>
>>61687071
You can mount two m.2 drives on the dimm.2 carrier.
>>
>>61681366
does this thing even have an external chipset anymore, or does it just have a shit ton of memory and PCIe traces going from the socket?

mobos shouldn't even cost that much anymore thanks to IMCs and now even integrated PCIe etc.
>>
>>61687337
It's 60 (out of 64) lanes from the socket.
>>
>>61687275
there is no dimm.2 carrier on >>61685466
>>
>>61684076
I disagree with that faggot because the X520 based Intel dogshits are fucking dogshit. You need atleast the X710 to have some decent throughput and not huge CPU loads. That being said, some Solarflare controllers would be tits onboard but you won't see it. I'd even take a Broadcom.
