March 7, 201313 yr SUPERMICRO MBD-X9SCM-F-O LGA 1155 Intel C204 Micro ATX Intel Xeon E3 Server Motherboard $149.99 after Promo code and MIR - F/S http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813182253&nm_mc=EMC-IGNEFL030713&cm_mmc=EMC-IGNEFL030713-_-EMC-030713-Index-_-ServerMotherboards-_-13182253-L024D Promo code: EMCXTXN89 Good through 3/13/2013
March 7, 201313 yr Cool!! I need to order a couple of these for a build. Looks like the promo code applies per board and the rebate is good up to three times. So effectively you can get $50 off per motherboard ordered up to 3 times!
March 7, 201313 yr Ordered. Thanks. I was literally going to order the model without IPMI for the same price two days ago. Glad I waited.
March 7, 201313 yr Wow amazing timing. I upgraded to ESXi 5 finally only to find that my older SuperMicro board's passthrough ability breaks during the 5.0 transition (from 4.1 to 5). Apparently passthrough does not function when the slots are being managed by some kind of built in switch. Worst thing is, there's no going back without completely redoing the install/setup. So my solution is to just overnight some new hardware . I was using a X8SIA-F with a X3440 CPU.... they were a great combo but clearly this was a huge limitation. Great find and thanks for sharing!!! Perfect time.
March 7, 201313 yr Grrrr - I just ordered once of these back on 2/21..... Knew I should have waited longer... Myk
March 8, 201313 yr Ordered 3 last night... along with quite a few other parts. 2 are going to be used in ESXi builds and the 3rd will be on hand when i need it.
March 14, 201313 yr My 3 showed up yesterday. I filled out the coupon stuff and dropped it in the mail this morning. Will let you know if this comes back around again WeeboTech.
