                          </div>
                          <div>Most unfortunately, my MP30-AR1 board
                            seems to have expired today. It gets stuck
                            in an infinite boot loop:</div>

                          <div><br>
                          </div>
                          <div>So I'm looking for a replacement.
                            Unfortunately, everything I can get in *TX
                            form factor seems to be nowhere nearly as
                            good, despite 6-7 years of advancement, and
                            I can't seem to find a replacement MP30-AR1
                            board listed anywhere.</div>
                          <div><br>
                          </div>
                          <div>I am aware of these:</div>

                          </div>
                          <div>Pros:</div>
                          <div>- Can just buy one</div>
                          <div>Cons:</div>
                          <div>- Poor performance despite lots of cores,
                            especially single-thread performance
                            compared to the old MP30-AR1</div>
                          <div>- Only half the RAM capacity at 64GB</div>

                          </div>
                          <div>Pros:</div>
                          <div>- Might have half decent single thread
                            performance matching or exceeding the old
                            MP30-AR1</div>
                          <div>Cons:</div>
                          <div>- Questionable availability, unknown

                          <div><br>

                          <div>Is there another offering that I'm
                            missing? I know Gigabyte do a server system,
                            but I need something reasonably quiet and
                            compact rather than something rack mounted
