  1. Good lord, high price but look at these specs for an mATX board:

    Sibling with no 10gbps:

    Total of 16 drives from one mobo, can fit a nice GFX card here for your vitualisation needs... Throw in an E5-2603v3 in there and you're golden.

     

    Thoughts, for the wealthy unRAIDer?

  2. I'll probably go down the dummy plug route.

     

    Sadly, i'm in the process of upgrading all my drives to 4TB, so that will be the priority for now. 4 more to go!

     

    It would be good to see if there is a motherboard out there that will handle Xeon, IPMI, dual network ports, PCIE... Back to the research!

  3. Right so tonight I tried Steams In Home streaming feature and it works well from my main PC to my Intel NUC. Very impressive!

     

    Can someone with a GPU passed through to one of the VMs test and see if this works for them?

     

    I have a Xeon E1230v3 on my SuperMicro X10SL7-F and, if the above works and performance is decent, I think i'll just need a GPU and i will have living room bliss!

     

    If this can be done with SteamOS, oh my...

     

    NVidia vs AMD?
